Can anyone help ID this fella? Its either a Bradley's Bahamian (Atlantic peppers) or a Super chilli (hippy seed co).  

Is there any way of identifying which species a plant comes from via its flowers?

Hi i noticed alot of people put wooded stakes or sticks in with there chillies. Is this to help support the stem or does it help with knowing when to water?

So when i was a kid my dad used to bring home this pepper and oil paste called swahili pepper sauce. I dont think it was very authentic but its had amazing flavours. It was a mix of dried pepper flakes, spices, salt and olive oil. I wish a new what spices were in it but i dont.   I decided to...

So I've been thinking about what to use as a filler to make some of my sauces/mashes more non chilli head friendly. The goal is to use something that has a very mild flavour so to help bring out and enhance the main chillies around it (usually super hots). I dont mind using some mango...

Hey, what do you guys use to hand water your grow tent? i got mind full to the max right now and could use some advise. Im thinking of hooking up a aquarium pump to a hose and look for some sort of nozzle,

Hi guys, I'm trying to design my indoor grow tent. I am trying to design it with as little maintenance as possible and maximum stability. I spend alot of time traveling (But I do have someone come by once a week to check mail/water plants, maybe alittle pruning) and I want to set up as system...

Hi guys, so its been about three weeks into my second ferment, the first went well. One of my jars in this second ferment contains peppers and garlic, while the other has star fruit added as well. Each of the jars has 7% salt to mash ratio. The pepper/garlic jar has about twice as much water to...

Hey guys, so i gave my first ferment a go, 100g of chillies, 10g of rock salt dissolved in 200ml of water, half a carrot and some brown sugar. i chopped everything in the food processor quite fine (not puree but fine chop) and left it in my closet with a silicon airlock thing. i put a bag of...

Hi, i have recently been messing around with various fruits in my salsa. Jackfruit and starfruit i find go great added to a regular   salsa, or sometimes in addition to pear. I picked up 6 Canistel, aka egg fruit from a market today and im wondering how they would go in a pepper sauce. has...

So I just harvested acouple aji limon and criolla sella pods and unfortunately they tasted quite soapy. The few green ones that i snacked on before they were ripe definitely tasted much better. I know that some people claim that this could be because of a gene similar to cilantro which or it...
