Gentlemen,

I fried my seeds. I left the heat pad on while I was gone for four days on our anniversary trip. what had sprouted died and the rapid rooters were all dried out. Can anyone spare some more seeds? I have a sase locked and loaded!

Thanks!

I have 4 seeds leftover from what walchit sent me if it helps..

I'll PM Walchit...don't want to take your last seeds in case something happens to your plants.

Walchit · Jan 24, 2019

Nope! You lose!

Edmick · Jan 24, 2019

The seed keeper has spoken. Better luck next year coldsmoke! Lol

We can only tolerate so much of that. You do realize that you've entered a competition populated entirely by professional photographers, do you not?

We might have to call for a referendum on you...

I'll take whatever punishment I have coming :party:

So idk if it was missed but can anyone fill me in on flavor and heat on these guys? I'm hoping my seeds get here tomorrow. I'm excited to get them going.

Cayenne heat generally, with a noted bump in heat with this pheno, fruity burst juiciness up front, light, bright, sweet and lingering heat slightly longer than cayenne.

My own contention viability aside, I'm really looking forward to this pepper.

Oh, they'll sprout. Nano technology man. Don't get too excited though, they could end up being a tomato

A few members got fresh pods! What do they say about them? I know someone mentioned them being hotter than anticipated.

Blitz527 · Jan 25, 2019

I am extremely excited for these as well for these. This sounds like it will be a very fun competition

Well if the post ever decides to deliver them........ Well looks like it will be here today finally.

Tracking another package and you wouldn't believe how stupid it is.
Almost one month to get from Vancouver to Alberta, their right next to each other for %$#& Sake.
Medieval times had better postal service.

m1hagen · Jan 25, 2019

Well number 3 sprouted and make it to the dirt just now. So 3 for 3 germ rate. Hope you all have the same! ColdSmoke, if you still need seeds pm me your addy. I've got three plants started and unfortunately with everything else I'm planting, that's all I'll have room for.

Walchit · Jan 25, 2019

Nope, he lost

Have you played around with any uses for green pods of the chili red? It looks like something best used ripe but just curious

Oh and Edmick, I wondering the same thing cuz usually you can get away with green pepper uses with certain strains :metal:

They are great green, make great finger/sandwich/pocket peppers. Green over eggs, steak, anything. Haven't dehydrated any green for any seasoning, but I have chopped them and used them in fish sauce for some of my Tom Kha Gai. Mmm

Walchit · Jan 26, 2019

Yeah I'm just messing with cold smoke, he's taken care of

Have you tried pickling them green?

I definitely want to give them a try.
