Continuing the benefit effort for forum member 96Strat (Andy) here. For information on Andy's situation, see SalsaLady's auction threads, auction 1, auction 2, auction 3, auction 4 and Andy's original post here.   This ad offers for sale five (5) one pound (1#) lots of Lava Bar Hot Pepper Candy...

Seeking thoughts on what this pepper might be.  These photos are from last year and aren't the best for identification, but it's all I have until the new crop comes in.   The pods are the yellow ones in the middle of this photo: For size reference, those are Bahamian Goats on the right.  The...

I'm not quite done with the 2018 glog yet, but thought I'd get started on the new year's effort.  I'll update the grow list in my profile soon and probably post it here, too.   Mainly, this morning, I wanted a place to stick links to some PDFs I (finally) found (again).  These are technical...

Now accepting pre-orders, to ship beginning the week of Monday, May 28.   Last week I received approval from the State Health Department to start producing hot pepper fudge for commercial sales. This week I'm working with the manager of the commercial kitchen I use (which you can read about...

Hey, All, like just about everyone here, I got the pepper bug bad. And, like a smaller subset of you, I've gone all in on setting up a company to manufacture pepper-based food products. In 2015 I participated in a months long food manufacturing workshop hosted by the University of Arkansas'...

I have very many original strain red ghost plants and would like to find homes for a few. You can read about this particular strain below or in this post in my current grow log: http://thehotpepper.com/topic/67370-sawyer-18-back-from-the-void/?p=1536599 The plants are pretty small, but are...

Hello everybody, old friends and new friends alike.  The last couple three years have been challenging for me, but come hell or high water, 2018 will be the year of the pepper.  I'll try to fill in some details going forward, but for now, I mostly just want to get this glog started.  The one in...

Okay, time to get started.  Last year was not such a good pepper-growing year for me, but it was great in terms of getting a pepper condiment business off the ground.  My only two resolutions for 2016 are to keep better condiment production records and follow through on growing large quantities...

Is there a better way to view more than the 5 most recent topics that are listed in the top right of the main page?  Sometimes I don't get by THP often enough to keep up (I know, shame on me) and it would be great to be able to see what new topics I've missed.  I know I can view new content, but...

Edit 03/09/15 - This OP was such a mess with multiple lists, Old Seed, New Seed, Saved Seed, Gifted Seed, etc., I'm redoing almost the whole post.  All of the lists have been merged into a single mega-list.  I am actually trying to grow at least two or three plants of almost everything on this...

There's been quite a bit of discussion in some of the grow logs about the benefits of winter cover crops for outdoor gardens.  It's pretty well established that such crops are beneficial in protecting exposed soil from erosion and nutrient leaching, and adding valuable nutrients to the soil when...

Okay, I've intended to start this thread for awhile now.  The impetus for this is a couple of plants I grew last year.  They were White Bhut Jolokias, seed for which I got from PepperLover.  While the majority of plants grown from those seeds were true to type, two produced yellow pods instead...

Just as the topic title says, here's a link to an article on the Johnny's Selected Seeds website about three different methods of starting seeds indoors.  It's very basic, but does provide an introduction to the three methods.   Disclaimer:  I have no affiliation (beyond being an occasional...

A new season begins.  It's a work in progress, but here's my 2014 grow list as it now stands.  It will certainly have some additions as I'm still expecting some more acquisitions.  I hope it will have some deletions, too, because it's just too ridiculously long as it is now.  My hope is/was to...

I just found this forum and it had no topics.  So, for what it's worth, there's a Pepper Palace in Pinnacle Hills in Rogers, AR.  I've been there once.  Seem like nice folks and they have a lot of hot sauce. 

Here is an interesting article from the latest Smithsonian, as much human interest as informative, but an interesting read nonetheless.

I haven't done a grow log before, but thought I'd give it a try this year. I'm growing mostly super hots, so I feel like I'm already behind schedule. Anyone know where January went? No pictures yet, I'll add some later when things (hopefully) start popping. My setup is a basic home-made 2-tier...

I didn't see an existing thread for these folks, so I thought I'd start one. They had a great offer going, now expired, for a two-for-one. You can see the details of that here. I placed an order last Thursday, got the seeds today, along with something extra beyond the two'fer. They have...

Hi everyone, I have some red bhut jolokia seeds I'm offering for sale here. If you buy some seeds, I'll include a small (~1g) sample of red bhut powder while it lasts. (I'll edit this to remove the offer when the powder runs out.) The plants these seeds came from were grown in isolation...
