had the same problem. I put down the Dupont weed fabric, and covered that with straw, no weeds.

I have to deal with the same problem her in FL. I plant on the east side of my house for this reason. I also grow tomatoes, which need morning sun to burn off the morning dew, and the sun rises in the east. My raised beds are about 10-15ft from the house, so around 1-2pm the house starts to...

Welcome from Florida (originally from Marion, OH)

We have to do the same here, but for love-bugs(two bugs with their ass stuck together). They are attracted to gas fumes, so they swarm the roads, and their splattered guts will eat your paint. Time to cover the car in cooking spray!

how many seedings can you fit in the yogurt maker?

They might think they are ghost, perhaps they got dupped on Egay as well, but those are not ghost. Every "fake Jolokia" thread I've seen, on every pepper forum, has always been a Carribean Red. And I think I've seen over 100 threads of people who ask "is this a Bhut Jolokia?", with a Carribean...

Hey Bud, You should stop by and bring me some seeds!

Haha, no, but you look completely different than I pictured! I pictured a big redneck/lumber-jack looking dude. Having sold insurance across the southern US, I have stereotypical profiles programmed in my brain.

Most of the people who bought Bhuts on Ebay ended up getting Carribean Red Habs, and thats what yours look like as well. There are tons of posts here just like yours, and every other pepper website, happened to everyone.

I only know this dish by its military name, which TB said, SOS. Shit on a shingle. Ground beef and gravy on toast.

Nice to finally put a face to the name!

That sounds like my NMSU plant, about 3 1/2ft, gave me about 60 pods. Where as the CCN was just over 6ft(taller than me) and gave me about 150-200 pods. I trimmed it down to nothing on 11/1, and its already covered in new leaves. Next year its gonna get its own 4x4 bed, and hopefully be alot...

Yes, I meant Cross Country Nurseries. Hmmmm, If they are both the same strain I wonder why hey performed so differently, when they had the same growing conditions. The one from CCN just took off and loaded up, while the one from NMSU took its sweet time. The NMSU seemed less drought tolerant...

I think I'm gonna buy a trap for the possums and relocate them a couple miles down the road.

Hab500, what Bhut strain did you test? The only reason I ask is because the NMSU strain that I grew was a big healthy plant, but it didn't set pods until it was a year old(planted 10/1/09, set pods 09/15/10). It was always loaded with flowers, but dropped every one. However, the CCN strain...

Nice list of tomato seeds. I'm in the same boat as you, got infatuated with tomatoes, got tons of seeds, got tired of dealing with everything. Peppers grow so much better down here than tomatoes. I still have all my tomato seeds as well. The only toms I'm gonna grow this year is Black Cherry...

you need to try bacon maple cheesecake

For bugs I have been using Neem Oil and Diatomaceous earth(human grade) with success. The Neem does an initial kill and the Diatomaceous earth keeps them off. Since I live in a farming area, I get the Diatomaceous at a local animal feed store. We also put it in the horses food. We also...

I used to use the paper-towel method, and it works great. Last year I just planted them straight into Jiffy cells, wraped with plastic-wrap and put in a south-facing window. Once the seed sprouted in that cell I cut the plastic wrap above that cell. However, since joining this site and...
