    Want to know how capsaicin cream works?

    It alleviates pain by depleting the body's supply of substance P, a chemical component of nerve cells that transmits pain signals to your brain.

    but that is just one action, another MoA is defunctionalization by altering several mechanisms involved in pain.

    Mass shootings and we are supposed to give up our guns? Uh, no. I keep it loaded and on hand at all times.

    Passed on but not verified yet: The US is something like #3 globally in gun-related deaths. Take away just the top 5 cities, though, and the US is now globally #4 from the bottom. Those 5 cities have the anti-American gun laws. Go figure...

    13% of the population accounts for 63% of all firearm related murders in the US. Per FBI statistics. its not a gun problem.

    A Bubblebito? Lol! :) That sounds like an awesome cross! Love Bubblegums; have yet to have the pleasure of sampling the Jobitos, but from their claim of awesome taste – that could be a real winner between the two!

    Ralph, hang around long enough and they will become available. Once mine are producing I'm willing to share some seed. I believe it was Fiogga who contributed these.

    Alchymystic those were my thoughts when I discovered that cross. Can't wait to try it!

    Cant wait to try some pods of both the Black Cayman, and Jamaican Hot Chocolate. I want to see if they truly taste the same, or if there is a difference. The JHC seems to handle the heat a bit better.

    Both are starting to put on some pods now, so it will not be long..

    Grass Snake, lucky you. I had the hardest time finding it here. Best thing is to combine it with some high quality green manure, some rock dust, little bit of bone meal and gypsum and a touch of potash, and bam! Perfect organic soil. Just check the ph and adjust it with a touch of lime until it reaches close to 6 to 6.5 or so.

    Thanks for the tips Aaron.

    You welcome, let me know if you try it. I made this mix out of necessity as our soil is too alkaline. I found out the hard way that its more difficult to acidify then to alkalize, and it takes longer. This is a clean mix with low toxic residues, and creates the best tasting peppers to date. Seems to repel bugs and fungus too.

    Okay, I am going to give you all one of my favorite ingredients for soil...

    Also its full of nutrients, blueberry growers use it as the preferred medium, mixed with green manure. Mixed with a few other key ingredients and it becomes the perfect organic soil for peppers. I love it.

    Also, it prevents mold and other bacteria all by itself. Eliminates a lot of headaches.

    Pine is the shit. I also use pine bark mini nuggets to mulch the peppers.

    Sic, let me know when you have the fresh ones available. I would like a box or 2 if you can get that many. Also looking for 7 Pot burgandy and cumari de para. Wicked mike has these but is out at the moment.

    A 5 inch layer of mulch does wonders in the Florida heat. Keep roots cool, and they can handle a lot more than you think.

    I noticed a big improvement by increasing my mulch content, using straw. Plants look unfazed by the heat and exposure to lots of sun. Consider we have been looking at 85 to 90 f temps, I would say thats pretty good.

    Straw is a great mulch choice for the heat. It keeps the soil cool by reflecting sunlight off it's white-ass self.
    I have leaf mold on now. When it starts getting hot, I'll top it off with 3-4" of straw.

    Good stuff it is. If fungus content gets too high or in suspect I go to my secret, or not so secret, pine bark fines. It works really well against fungus and adds nutrients as well. Hard for me to find at the moment in bulk.

    Looks like I will start off with BCS walk behind tractor. Found one used with a tiller attachement, and a hiller

    I'm glad you found something to work with inside your budget.

    Thanks pepperguy1. It was priced well and known to be a good affordable alternative to sit down tractors. Good at least for me to start out with.

    I can't believe I just picked up a large healthy full of pods, real scotch bonnet and organic for $12.50

    Came from a new grower, they are quite large, and the best deal I have found for peppers like these.

    Last year at Home Depot at the end of the season they had an orange hab plant in a 2# container. Loaded with pods. I picked it up for 2.50+tax. The deals are out there!

    Purples. Only thing is that they are small and very seedy. But IMO, the ripe flavor is worth it.

    Thanks jblo and geeme. I have the cracked so I will give them a try, and the purple I have been hearing is quite tasty, so I will look into getting this one.

    I planted one of the largest bamboos in the world, Dendrocalamus giganteus, as a screen on the side of our property. Massive bamboo!

    If you copy and paste the species into google images, you will see what I am talking about. I actually want to plant more of them. They are used as construction material as well, and you can get a pretty penny for the full size mature culms.

    I had Dendrocalamus Minor amoenus at the other home we just sold, and it does indeed get larger than the stated size, especially if planted in shade, as it will stretch to get the sunlight. Beautiful variety, but I was disappointed with how thin the walls are. I had on more than one occasion broken culms due to high winds. Mine grew almost 50+ feet tall and 3.5+ inch culms. Very fast grower though, in fact one of the quickest to get to a large size. Wayright and Pex, I do understand what your...

    getting at, those runners go everywhere. I would never do that to a neighbor, as I would not want it done to me.
