Sorry guys, haven't been on the forums for a while.  Yes, it's the chocolate jug of pain that I was referring to.  I am letting this one go for a year (seven months in right now).  I put the oak in before I put the sauce in for fermentation.   -Alden

I have completed one ferment with toasted oak cubes in it. I would describe the taste as a strong tabasco since I used all super hots.  I have one going right now (ready in December) that has toasted oak spirals in it.  I would say go for it!   -Alden

54 baby pepper plants so far. Hopefully I don't screw them up.

I had been getting condensation from my plastic seedling dome dripping at the edges so I put a cookie sheet under the seedling tray.  I found after doing this that my heat mat could not get up to temperature.  I figured the cookie sheet was acting like a nice heat sink so I put a piece of rigid...

Thanks guys!    I think I am good the way I have it setup now then.   -Alden

I am going to start from seed for the first time.  In the past I have had a black thumb as far as starting from seed.   I have a heat mat, temp controller, 300W Mars LED, and a grow tray/dome.  My question is how high the light should be over the dome/seedlings?  Also, should I start with a low...

You wanted pictures, here's one of the yellow ghosts that I mentioned above in OW mode.  LEDs make for a funny color to the picture.  -Alden  

I have two yellow ghosts that will start their fifth growing season next year.  I cut back on my OWs this year but had to keep these two going for sentimental reasons. :P   -Alden

  Take a look for "ph meter" on ebay and you will find plenty of affordable meters.   -Alden

  Don't hold your breath.  :P  Last one I fermented for nine months and it has received rave reviews.  I am going to hopefully go for at least that long this time too.   -Alden

I started a new ferment this weekend.  It's all chocolates.  Chocolate Moruga, Chocolate Congo, and Chocolate Bubblegum.  I also tossed in two toasted oak "spirals" from the brewing store.   -Alden  

My first attempt at aeroponic cloning didn't take.  The leaves didn't wilt and looked nice and healthy but I had no roots after ten days.  Bought some rooting gel and am giving it another try, hopefully these will take.   -Alden

I have a friend that has a bunch of coworkers wanting to do the one chip challenge.  I talked her out of it.  Instead I sent her a bottle of some really hot sauce I made and suggested they make a charitable donation to a dog rescue I work with for each person that tries it.  She liked the idea. ...
