ME! I'M BACK!!!   Seriously it has been way to long. I had this horrible idea, which I thought was great when I thought of it, to take the year off from gardening last year. We grew some amazing weeds though. I handed over a bottle of my pepper powder I made a few years ago to a coworker today...

Well it has been a long time since I have visited these wonderful forums. This year has been great and busy. Well I will get right to it. Since last year I have started a pepper bonsai. doesnt look the greatest and I might start over. Anyway if I do keep it, the one issue I have is that it...

Instead of double posting I was wondering if maybe I could redirect some traffic over to my already existing post to get some constructive criticism on my new label design? :) I myself have already gone through many big and subtle changes to get to where I am now and just want to know what the...

Well Im not going to retell my opportunity story for the third time so I am going to save you all from that. Long story short I have a lot of great opportunities next year. I also am working on some BBQ sauce recipes. The thing is that I want to improve on my labels. A couple years ago I...

Well I posted this story on another one of my posts but there has been more development. So for a little background... A few weeks ago I went on a mens retreat with my church and it was awesome on so many levels. Anyways one of the men and I talked about peppers and my gardening for a long time...

Well I have started dehydrating some peppers but I have nothing to put them in other than plastic baggies for now. I would like to get some glass spice jars between 4-8oz I think, with a built in shaker. I have seen some of you do the same thing and was hoping that you guys might be able to list...

So I have a little box the is meant for index cards. I don't have a pic but what I have done is labeled each index card with the name of the pepper, its hotness, and maybe one or two other pieces of info. I am outgrowing this box and literally squeezing seed packages into it. So what all do you...

Well a few nights ago I tried to make a smoothie. Well i got it done and took the first sip right out of the blender container. IT WAS AMAZING!!! Well I put it back on the blender and I noticed the plastic base on the jar was a bit loose. Well I tried to tighten it and little did I know, it was...

Well I have already put my plans together (after 4 drafts) for next years gardens. As far as the peppers go I have 88 plants in the plans. But I am thinking to myself that as awesome as that would be, Im not so sure I have my spacing correct. I also have designed the gardens around a few things...

So I got a nice big 1yrd. worth of compost last weekend and was so excited I forgot to get black dirt also. Well I got to thinking, is it OK to grow in JUST compost? After all that's where the nutrients will come from, there is plenty of space and "looseness" in the soil for roots to grow and...

My adopted babies are looking GREAT!!!. They are a week old since I got them from Muskymojo. They were under intense fluro lights and ever since I got them I have had them sitting in my basement window soaking up the rays. There was some yellowing and still is a little but I have been getting...

I have a 1qrt jar of cayenne sauce that so far has been fermenting since September 2010. I am wondering something though. I plan on taking it this September and finishing it up. Now I know to thicken up a wing sauce you add butter. If I take my sauce dump it in a pot, boil it down a bit to...

So as some of you have heard many times already, my (now) wife and I have also just moved into a nice new home. As a gift from my dad I got an Excalibur Dehydrator. I have not used it or done ANYTHING with it or to it yet. I would like to do some messing around with jerky and pepper powders. The...

Ok so in my new house there is a nice sized area under the split level entryway that in addition to using to house my media server and stuff, I would like to dedicate a portion of it for starting off my seeds/plants. For now I will be using 4 4' Fluro's but eventually would like to upgrade to...
