Hi everyone,  I got some seeds to plant a few months ago and among these seeds there was a bag labeled as "Elephant Trunk". I planted a couple of seeds from that bag and I got two plants out of them; however one seems to be a proper Elephant Trunk (long and big peppers with the bumps I can see...

Oh ok I see. Still learning about growth and cultivation. Thanks for the clarification

Never tried Fresnos as they're harder to find around where I live (in southern Italy there are few people interested in exotic chili peppers, great part of the production moves around the Calabrian Peppers). I researched some informations about Fresnos and yes they look similar but had a look at...

Hi everyone, Yesterday I was buying groceries at the local market and saw these bundles of green peppers. The vendor wasn't actually able to tell me the variety but I wanted to give them a go anyway for some fermentation. At first I thought they were Anaheim peppers but after tasting one of them...

First real post here! I apologise in advance if I'm posting in the wrong thread or using incorrect terms (I'm a hobbyist newbie so please be kind :D)   I planted a few seeds a couple of months ago as a first attempt at growing my own peppers. I started with a few of them in a plastic bag to see...

Hi everybody,  It's the time for me to join the conversation! My name is Giuseppe and I always loved spices and chilli peppers and in addition to that I love cooking and pickling, so I suppose it was just a matter of time before getting some seeds and starting to grow my own peppers. While...
