Then that's the end of the argument. You don't like the product or the price. The claims of dishonesty can only be applied when they SELL the product without proving the claim.
[background=rgb(255, 244, 228)]I bought 20 seeds from pepper joe,out of those 20 seeds 18 germinated so in my book thats a great germination %, Joe has always been a stand up guy and very easy to deal with. [/background]
[background=rgb(255, 244, 228)]I talked to Ed Curry today (12-12-12) and here is a question and his answer. [/background]
[background=rgb(255, 244, 228)]So why hasnt this pepper been awarded the world record yet? Well that takes time too, and money. It is being processed as we speak. There has been a lot of hype surrounding this pepper, lots of people have been doubting whether it was for real.[/background]
[background=rgb(255, 244, 228)]Currie said he has asked Guinness to expedite his world-record request. He said he has paid the firm about $4,000 to seek the record.[/background]
[background=rgb(255, 244, 228)]To get the world record he needed to have the peppers tested, a costly procedure. He then met Cliff Calloway, a chemistry professor at Winthrop University.[/background]
[background=rgb(255, 244, 228)]Ed also told me that he has 7800 Carolina Reaper plants growing in a green house and how he stresses a plant and type of soil he uses will produce a diffrent looking pepper than we grow. [/background]
[background=rgb(255, 244, 228)]here is a photo of 3 Carolina Reapers that Ed took and as you can see the 3 in this photo all look different from each other.[/background]
