They look exactly like the Italian pepperoncini that I have growing. They are not spicy at all. Very delicious. My kids will eat them right off the plant when they see a ripe one.

Welcome. If you're new to peppers be prepared to become addicted.

Only one seed, not much placenta & lots of heat right away. A little sweet & peppery. The heat is on the tongue & throat.

a couple of them are starting to change colors.

I have this bad girl labeled as a ghost but it doesn’t look quite like my other two ghost plants. The peppers are pale green instead of the dark green I'm used to. Anyone recognize it?

Thanks for the link!! I like the bug idea but I was concerned about releasing bugs from somewhere else into my ecosystem since I cannot find them locally. I also tried the yellow sticky traps & abandoned the idea when a poor little lizard got stuck to one. The reflective mulch is a pretty neat...

I have discovered white flies on pretty much every pepper plant in my yard. I have been trying to spray them all off with the hose with absolutely zero results. Yesterday evening I hit them with some neem oil & I am praying it does the trick. If not I'm going to try a neem oil/soap blend in a...

That ol' girl is gonna love her new home & take off!

I always use my leftover brine to soak chicken wings(sometimes any cut of chicken.) overnight & then throw them on the Weber grill indirect. I find that veggies don't pickle well unless the brine is hot when the veggies go in.

I don't have a favorite because each flavor profile is good on certain things IMO. I like Tabasco on anything with marinara sauce & breakfast food. Chipotle Tabasco is great mixed with mayo & on pizza. Crystal is great on fried seafood. Sriracha & Huy Fong chili garlic sauce for Asian & Indian...

Upon further inspection a 2nd Fatalii labeled plant looks like red habs & a dragon's breath that is starting to fruit also looks like red habs. These kids are lucky I love them a lil' more than my chiles. My guess is a soccer ball decimated the table with the peppers on it & they just swept the...

It is a black drum. I caught this one in Venice, LA though. It was right after hurricane Zeta rolled through the area in 2020. The water was high & I didn't see much action that trip. New Orleans was a ghost town as well due to covid. It was a bummer but still better than working.

I think they are red habs as well. My guess is one of my kids knocked some pots over during germination & just put the name tags anywhere they would fit. I'm sure it is user error & not the wrong seeds in the packs.

The yellow was more spicy than the red. The red was a little more fruity than a red hab. but they were both pretty tasty. The yellow was the only pepper on the plant. The red has a bunch. I will get some pics this evening.
