    Tales from the Loo: Chile's Attack!!

    Reading through this again three-years or so after I posted and I still laugh until a bit of wee comes out. I'm a classy chap and no-mistake. :halo:

    Jalapenos - No Heat.

    I am notoriously impatient. I'll bide my time and hope for the best. :mouthonfire:

    Jalapenos - No Heat.

    Sorry, only just checked back in. This is the description from the website; 'JalapenoRef: S/CAP069 Cap Annuum. Medium hot. Traditional early strain. One of the world's most well known varieties of chilli. Popular pepper for Tex-Mex cooking. Prolific. Green/red. Compact plants.' They are one of...

    Jalapenos - No Heat.

    I'll be honest, I may have tried them too soon. I was having a look at the plant and was a bit heavy handed with a pod and it came off. I tried a few more out of curiosity than anything. So if I leave them be, preferably until they turn red, I should notice heat developing then? Thanks for...

    Jalapenos - No Heat.

    Hello all. I've grown two jalapeno plants using seeds from a very reputable seller and I'm dismayed to find that the pods are carrying no heat whatsoever. The seeds are supposedly for a medium-hot chilli (I believe there are some strains that are mild?) so I was wondering whether it's anything...

    Tales from the Loo: Chile's Attack!!

    Hab poppers almost did me in a week or so ago. I was driving home 'the morning after' after taking my kids to the pool, my stomach dropped like a stone, and my starfish began twitching. I needed to fart but dare not in case I 'followed through'. Sweating like a pig, the 15 minute drive home...

    AJI LEMONS ROCK!!!!

    My aji limon plant is going mental, I'm using the pods up in sandwiches and they taste lovely.

    My Orange Habaneros.

    Well, I made some habanero poppers (apologies, but my camera wasn't to hand). Just used some cream cheese, wrapped 'em in bacon, dipped 'em in some spicy BBQ sauce and stuck them in the oven for 15 minutes or so. Well, they blew my bloody head off truth be told. Made some with a few fresnos...

    My Orange Habaneros.

    Excellent! I might just do that. Space has been limited this year, but next year I will hopefully have a big new greenhouse to play with.:mouthonfire:

    My Orange Habaneros.

    Cheers everyone, I might just freeze them then. I had a feeling that the poor amount may limit my options.:( Yeah, you've got to love Tom Baker!

    My Orange Habaneros.

    Hello all. The first habanero has ripened on my plant, and I'm turning over in my mind what I can do with it and the other pods. Truth be told, there's not a great deal of pods (just 13) and as the only chill-head in the house I'm thinking about making some sauces to keep. How much sauce would...

    Guinness

    If you ever get the chance to try 'O'Hara's Stout', then give it a go. It's better than Guinness in my humble opinion.

    Hello from Ireland!

    Windowsill Armadillo does sound a bit exotic.:lol:

    Hello from Ireland!

    Lally, I'm from Burnley, Lancashire originally. Married an Irish lass and relocated a few years ago.:) I'm growing indoors on a huge windowsill Armadillo. When it's hot it's boiling, but when it's bad it's awful; we are very much open to the elements here. Hopefully next year I'll have a...
