    what peppers are similar to pasilla bajio

    I appreciate the offer of seeds. But I would feel like a mooch to accept them.  If they were a rare seed I would probably say send  them, but a quick google search showed a bunch of places with them for a couple bucks.   That's how I read the hot peppers comment too.  I was thinking of just...

    what peppers are similar to pasilla bajio

    Jamaican hot chocolate  sounds good in place of my planned superhots.   Puyas  sound like the perfect heat level for me.   Pepperlover doesn't have either though.  So if I go with them, i will have to find a new source.   I will research and think about what I'm going to plant. I have plenty of...

    what peppers are similar to pasilla bajio

    aji panca is 1000 to 1500 shu,  passilla is 1000 to 2500. So the same or a bit higher than the ajji panca.   Still it sounds like an interesting pepper.   The ethiopian brown berbere(which I think you are meaning)  Is 30,000 to 50,000 shu. So  closer to the heat level I want, maybe a bit high...

    what peppers are similar to pasilla bajio

    I started growing a few years ago.  Since I always like hot food, the first year I grew all super hots.  Then I realized that maybe I didn't like them THAT hot :)   So the last few years I grew a couple superhots, and experimented with a bunch of  other peppers. Of all I tried I absolutely love...

    powder-flake equipment for making powder

    I have around 40 plants, that I expect to mostly make powder from.  They are starting to get some peppers so its time to start thinking of how to best do that.  I don't want to contaminate the family dehydrator, so need one of them for sure. Also I've read here that most people us a coffee...

    fertilizer how much fertilizer to give to plants

    I have a question about specifically fish fertilizer 5 1 1. But really I have the same question for any liquid fertilizer.   The directions say how much to put in water. But it gives no hint as to how much to put on the plants.   I mixed it a little weaker than the directions called for. While...

    best way to lay soaker hose

      The kits were close in price to what I spent. But While I have a small garden, I  have a ton of plants in it.    So I think I would have had to buy a bunch of connectors and extra hose to make it work. I knew drip lines  would be better, but frankly I was a bit intimidated on figuring out what...

    best way to lay soaker hose

    I have 3 rows of peppers planted really tight. The  plants are about 2 ft from each other, but the rows even closer, about 18 inches apart.  So same idea as square ft gardening, just not quite so extreme.   Should I just run a soaker hose down middle of each row.  That would put it about 9...

    Why are supers hard to grow?

    I've thought about it, but I'm even less sure how to get the right amount of water that way.  And I still would have issues with knowing when to water.   I know most people can feel the difference in weight, but I can't. I've even considered.buying scales, but each cup would have different...

    Why are supers hard to grow?

    This is my first year growing from seed.  It could just be coincidence but for me the superhots have been harder to grow.      I keep having major issues with my plants. Because of everyone stressing not to overwater, I keep under watering.   Usually with no warning, all my plants wilt to the...

    place to order live plants on the internet

    If I can't find a good deal. I probably will plant less. I am new to planting from seed inside. But I have planted outside from bought seedlings for 3 years.

    Hi.   I have planned enough room for around 60 plants this year. I bought a bunch of seeds from pepperlover, and planted my first batch in january, and have tried a couple times since.  Due to my incompetence I have managed to kill most of my seedlings.  It is looking like I will have at the...

    soil help me pick what to add to my soil

        I've done a ton of online searches of my area.  Very few of the greenhouses have a web page, and the few that do don't list bulk materials.  Its kinda pathetic not to have a webpage in 2015, but I guess that is just a problem with the area I live.   I will ask the 2 people I know with trucks...

    soil help me pick what to add to my soil

    I have looked online for bulk compost, soil, etc. I haven't found any. Most of the nurseries aren't even open yet. And the ones that are just have the same bags as lowes for twice the price. I have a couple gravel yards close to me.  They have sand but I don't think I need enough sand to make it...
