Abbreviations

BigMal · Oct 23, 2014

I'm not new to forums and understand there are common abbreviations used in any of those forums. Being new to THP, I'm having trouble picking up on a few. For example, I'm seeing MFRB and SFRB a lot. There's likely a list of these somewhere that I've overlooked and apologize it is out there, but I've yet to see it.

For now, could someone help me with the meaning of MFRB and SFRB?

Thanks. Looking forward to my first growing season - 2015.

What other ones are you having trouble with?

I got seeds for a chocolate SBN recently. I'm assuming this means scotch bonnet, but does anybody know?

DPSE is an important one.

Me too. I haven't figured out what it means either and I lost the info of who sent them to me as they were a surprise pack.

PD- What's a MoA chile?

Ministry of Agriculture... Maybe talking about the MoA scotch bonnets?

I've got a couple

OP --standard forum use is "original post" or "original poster" but on this forum it can also stand for "open pollinated" (as opposed to isolated)
CARDI --Caribbean Agricultural Research and Development Institute
TMSB --Trinidad Moruga Scorpion Blend
PDN --Pimenta de Neyde
AACT --actively aerated compost tea
OW --Overwinter
CPI --[New Mexico]Chile Pepper Institute

that might be a few that can help? I dunno

MoA and CARDI both have multiple cultivars they've released, not just the SBs and scorpions

SBN = South Border Nursery I believe it's where MA used to work.
I have SBN Brown, Yellow and Red

salsalady · Oct 26, 2014

LFRB= large flat rate box
SASE= self addressed stamped envelope
SASBE= self addressed stamped bubble envelope

CCN= cross country nursery

Mods- maybe merge with the other thread?

Hi Ian,

I just received some SBN Chocolate seeds. Are they Habs? The pack just says SBN Chocolate MA (but, I do realize they were developed by Matthew Arthur).
Thanks.
