I was watching TV tonight and they we're talking about paintball type guns that shoot pepper powder balls. The idea is when the balls break, they powder gets in eyes, nose, mouth, etc. So it acts like a more localized, pepper spray. As a "no one special" chilihead, I routinely use ghost pepper...

One thing I usually see at these things is some of the new hybrids that will be commercially available for the following year. Usually there is a pepper variety or two, so if I spot something, I'll take pictures.

I started some seeds awhile back to check viability and to try a different germination method. Once plants germinated, I moved approximately twenty seedlings into 2.5 nursery pots. Almost all of them yesterday we're tiny two leaf plants and a few still had a seed helmet. This morning, I had...

Has anyone grew out pepper seed from them? Did they grow out true? I'm going to order from them anyway for some other things and I spotted some pepper seeds that I want to try. The seeds I want are not superhots or,special in anyway, so hopefully they are real deal seeds. I've grown tired over...

Pepper plants are perennial and can live over a decade. Cold weather and frost is what kills most of them in our garden. Here in central Florida, I grow mine in raised beds and most of them do not make it through the winter even though the last two winters have been mild. I do have a Cayanne...

Back in seventies, when I was a kid running all over the Eustis area of Florida, we encountered a few wild peppers that the old timers called grove peppers. My friends and I used to dare each other to eat them and it was my introduction to hot peppers. I had always been told that hot peppers in...

It would appear my Cayenne has crossed with one of my Ficus Bonsai. :rolleyes: :hot: :P :dance: :rofl:

M wife and I went to New Orleans last week for a short break from life. As any pepper head wil do, I saw a hot sauce shop and had to go in and snoop and sample. My wife can handle some spice, but tobasco in small amounts is her limit. She spots a Chocolate habanero sauce and brings it to my...

I've had a long love affair with hot peppers but never knew there was a whole forum of hot heads like me. I have a nursery here but I mostly do flowering plants and vines. It gets me access to a lot of cool peppers for my personal use though. Hopefully we can contribute some knowledge as well as...
