contest Growdown Throwdown 2017 Aji Lemon Drop!

[D3monic]

I grew cumari  do para and wild brazil this year, i'm really surprised I didn't save a bunch of seeds from them. 

 

[Pepper-Guru]

I got probably a few hundred of the orange variant of wild brazil, I could donate for distribution. I prefer the taste of yellow but orange gets pretty big and is a good producer too. unfortunatly I only have a few seeds for the yellow variant
 

 
 
 
 

That's very tempting. What we're your isolation practices? Let's see what everyone else has to say, and hear back from tradewinds, but I'm in on those if everyone else is.

Those where grown in a greenhouse no other steps taken

yea aji inti, cumari do para, wild brazil, pequin x goatsweed, aji jobito. 
 
we can just do the cumari from the one place that way we know its all good.

Ok. Word back from tradewinds is they have plenty left and will be looking out for our orders. If you guys are down with that and there aren't any other suggestions, I'd say let's do it!

Just added a poll to the thread for a vote on which pepper to grow. We can add more to the poll, but I wanted to start with only 5 to chose from.

I voted lemon drop, I had great results in northern Minnesora with them a few years back, a subconscious defensive move I'm sure....

 

[Pepper-Guru]

Cool. Gonna let more people weigh in over the next few days

 

[Pepper-Guru]

Looks like lemon drop is getting the most votes! So...unless more people chime in between now and this evening, it looks like we will be growing lemon drop!

Sounds like fun. I voted for Fatali just 'cuz
It's my favorite of all the ones I've grown.

The tiny pod chilis are awesome, I've not grown
them lately since they are such a bear to harvest.
I'll follow this with interest!

Thanks for spearheading this, PG!

The lemon drops aren't too small apparently! You should order a pack and join us! I'm ordering mine now.

Me too, took advantage of free shipping on $20+ orders !

This will be interesting, as aji pineapple is one of my very favorite peppers, and many contend that aji lemon drop and aji pineapple are the same pepper. I shall find out!! 

 

[PaulG]

Lemon Drop will be a new variety for me, but I'm in!
Will place an order from Tradewinds tonight...
 
edit:  Order placed
two hours later: Already shipped!
