    CON'S site says ripen to gold from green. You might want to leave it a tad longer if you don't consider it to be "gold".

    Ditto here. I thought I started some green onion seeds, but I think I'll be starting more. Most of the chile plants, however, seem to be loving it - they're getting tall and bushy already, and I've only had them a couple weeks!
    Its June 4th and my grow room is almost 30 degrees warmer than our weather

    I am sure that someone will find a way to claim the "climate" in your grow room is caused by "global warming." Just saying....

@wayright Happy Birthday, Kev! Hope all is well.
How many opened varieties of hot sauce do you have opened at this moment. I stop myself at 8 at a time. not including other spicy condiments.
Happy National Yo-Yo Day. It's been a little bit since I've been on here. I hope everyone is doing well these days.

what chilies to combine to make a blend that combines instant heat and long lasting heat with a good taste?
