As I was taking photos for the seedling post, I noticed these little webs. Plants came in about a week ago for over winter, and I do not remember seeing this before they came in. Is the webbing indicative of mite damage? What to do about if it is bad? Thanks for advice.

Hi all, In a gifted Charapita(which taste great) there is new growth in the pot. I am wondering if it is a weed, or perhaps a volunteer seedling. The leaves do not look like any weeds I am familiar with but I am also not familiar with baby Charapita seedlings, since I was gifted this plant...

As I line up my selections for the 2012 grow season, I would really like to have 3 selections(minimal) of a "citrus like" tasting pepper. Thought I would come here and ask opinions. Personally what some call "citrus" I find "floral" in taste. I prefer fruity over floral. If you have a...

Recently watched "Game of Thrones." Was really amazed at the production quality of the 10 episode season. Led me to grab the book from the library that I am reading now. Wondering if anyone else enjoys this title, either book or show. Some great scenes and acting all the way through the...

Was gifted an Inca Red Drop by a nice THP member a few weeks back. The first pod has since turned red. How long should it stay on the bush till the seeds should be viable? Thanks for the advice.

Hi all, Someone that I barbecue with offered me some chihuacle negro seeds. I have not seen these mentioned often on the net other than they are used in mole sauces and not common. Does anyone first hand information to share about this pepper? Is it "only" to be used dried? What does it...

Today when I was in my local Mexican grocery store, El Rancho, I picked up these three peppers. An Anaheim, a red jalapeno, and a manzano. I want to save the seeds from them. Anaheim: Do I need to wait till this turns totally red before pulling seeds? Red jalapeno: This is just a regular...

On Saturday I was at a TX grocery chain, HEB. Their jalapenos on this visit were the LARGEST I have ever seen anywhere. They were over 5 inches long, and thick in diameter. I love to make grilled poppers, and bought these do so with. Stuffed with cream cheese, cheddar and wrapped in bacon...

Hi all, Still learning my way around the pepper world and this forum. I make a lot of grilled jalapeno poppers, and have them down quite well. However, I was wondering what other peppers would be good to use to make them. I grill these for a wide range of palettes, so I wish not to use...
