I have 7 plants that are already in pots (5 gallon hardware store buckets) and have been living and producing in my basement for a couple of months (it's been cold here for a while). I'm wondering what I'd need to do for this process. It seems like I ought to just prune them back when they're...

I had my tray on top of my refrigerator for most of the time, I only moved it when it was particularly warm out and I felt comfortable putting it in the big bay window in my kitchen where it was even warmer. I think it was the Ghosts that took 2 months (I'd pretty much given up on them). The...

Makes sense, thanks. I don't have a tons of money/resources to put into these this year, but I'm hoping to have my act together a little better for next season. The main thing is to get them started earlier in a warmer place. When I started them this year, I didn't realize that they tend to take...

Yes, like I said, they Blue Hubbards, Solar Flare Tomatoes and other stuff they sold me were great. However, the Butch T's and Ghosts were the only super hits they had. Thinking I'll be buying my pepper seeds from some of the vendors here for next year's grow. I'd like to try some other hots...

I don't have any reapers. But the ghost has 15-20 well-formed pods. Haven't started ripening yet though. The soil I used was storebought potting soil that was marked as being good for vegetables. Like I said, this was something did on a whim while I was organizing my regular vegetable garden for...

They seem like a pretty reliable company. The squash and heirloom tomatoes I ordered from them were all spot on. Also keep in mind that I'm in Southern Maine, so the climate isn't ideal for these kinds of peppers. I don't know if/how that would relate to these oddities. I did everything I could...

This is the ripe, 'normal' Butch T. It's more orange looking in real life. I think the shape is off, but I'm no expert. These are the unripe pods just above it. More normal looking. These are from the oddball plant. One ripe yellow, but they're all shaped like this.

So when I was ordering seeds for my garden this year, I got most of them from Baker Creek seeds (rareseeds.com). I didn't plan to grow super hots, but they had Butch T scorpions and Ghost seeds, so I grabbed a package of each. Since I've never had luck growing anything hot in my garden, I put...
