    Primo released some new pepper seeds

    Like most pepperheads, I get very excited about new varieties becoming available. I'm going to give Primo's seeds a shot (thanks for letting us know they're available Rajun). His prices seem very reasonable and worth every penny. Can't wait to grow the "big black mama!"  :party:

    I ordered seeds from these guys again for this past grow season and once again came away impressed. I had good germination rates and all seeds grew as advertised. Good prices too. Here are pics of a stubby peter pepper and a california reaper.

    Steam Distillation with dehydrated peppers?

    With all of the buzz surrounded essential oils, I'm curious if anyone knows what would happen with the steam distillation of dehydrated peppers? Would the oil that is extracted be considered pepper "essential oil" or would it be capsaicin? Would oil from peppers even be extractable using steam...

    I ordered a few superhot varieties from Jim in the spring. Everything germinated and grew as advertised. I didn't receive any freebies, but I don't expect to. The most important thing to me is that the peppers grow true, which they did. Overall I am very pleased and would order again. Here is a...

    Don't look like a Reaper to me but then I don't have a clue

    Looks more like a ghost pepper to me.

    It's been a busy summer so I haven't been able to update as often as I'd like. I'll update more as more peppers start to pod up. Here are two quick pics

      Phillips "Plant Light" (120 W). They were cheap and they seem to work for me so I'm happy.

    Freezing: how dead is dead

    Keep the faith! Don't give up on them, hopefully they'll make it. Definitely bring them inside though.

    They've definitely got some intense heat, I'd say hotter than Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion but probably not quite as bad as a Reaper. Either way, they're freakin' hot. I like the looks of them too, that's what hooked me.

    I bought from these guys because I wanted to grow the "California Reaper." Check out the pics below of the California Reaper (needless to say, I was really impressed after initially being unsure of what to expect). Good prices and selection. I grew other varieties as well and everything grew...

    I just picked my final harvest of a few varieties I grew from RFC seeds. I've grown both plants and seeds from RFC and everything has grown to be true. Would be happy to buy from him again.   Here is my Carolina Reaper from RFC, taken at the end of the season so it doesn't look very healthy :(

    seeds "Carolina Reaper" seeds bought from Pepper Joe

    That's the worst... Sorry to hear the seeds were not true Carolina Reapers, hopefully the heat level and flavor profile are similar to the reaper.
