    Thanks, but they look healthy and are making peppers.  I just wanted to find some fertilizer to add to help them along since I haven't been able to get them any new soil.

    fertilizer-nutrients Emergency Fertilizer Tip?

    Thanks a bunch guys .. yes I think Walmart delivers but all we have near by is one of their supermarkets.  It looks like I will just order something off of Amazon.   Can you all recommend a good fertilizer that might be on Amazon?  Something to help them produce peppers before it gets too cold?

    fertilizer-nutrients Emergency Fertilizer Tip?

    Hey all!  I have about 10 Carolina Reapers growing in pots in the back and have sadly been writing them off because I've been injured, unable to really take care of them or leave the house for fertilizer.   Amazingly they are doing better than expected and are starting to get peppers but the...

    plant-care Winter Grow Light 24/7?

    Hey you all!   I live in South Louisiana but I am expecting to get freezes on and off for the next few months.   I pulled my peppers into the garage and put them under a grow light that I think is a lot less than they need.   I got started late and never got any peppers but just wanted them to...

    seeds-germination Best Place to order Carolina Reaper Seeds?

    Hey you all!   A couple of years ago I grew a bunch of Reapers and wasn't too happy with the quality of the plants I got (I suck though so most of that was likely me).  I want to make sure I get my seeds from the right place this time.  Doesn't the originator of the variety sell them somewhere...

    Will a Light Freeze Kill?

    I was hoping that they may survive the winter if we get only 2 or 3 light frosts, but I'm not sure how hearty they are.

    Will a Light Freeze Kill?

      Yeah, they are in pots but all clumped together so I may be able to wrap them in something to hold in a bit of heat but not much.

    Will a Light Freeze Kill?

    I have six or so Carolina Reaper plants outside and we are expecting a light freeze here in New Orleans in the next day or 2 (just expected to maybe go into low 30's in the early morning hours).   Will a couple of hours below freezing kill them?  They have a few orange peppers on them but they...

    Carolina Reaper Size ... LOL

      They are definitely Reapers.  Here's a shot of one of the larger ones:   http://prnt.sc/d5pxyv   I guess they are just less twisted looking when they are the size of a pea.  Lol   I figured it might be this little cold front we got that forced them to turn before growing.

    Carolina Reaper Size ... LOL

    Hey guys and gals.  Any idea what might be causing this hilarious issue I'm having?   Peppers started out relatively small but OK (smaller than a golf ball) but now several are doing this:   http://prnt.sc/d5oyox

    Carolina Reaper Sauce?

      Oh thanks.  I figured the salt, vinegar and garlic would help a bit in that department.
