    contest Growdown Throwdown 2023

    Ok, I'm forced to make a early entry. I had a branch break due to the weight. I pulled 16 peppers off and here is the biggest. It's a solid 5 1/2", 129 grams. More to enter later!

    pics Black Garlic Sauce

    Wow, Thanks for some of the details. This will be a first attempt adding black garlic to a hot sauce. I have smoked peppers and added to fermented mash but haven't ever smoked the mash. I'm waiting for peppers to ripen up but trying to make some plans for some batches over the next couple...

    pics Black Garlic Sauce

    I made some black garlic last fall and am about to do another batch. I haven't used the black garlic in anything other than a spicy cocktail sauce and some dry rub seasoning. Both turned out good. Your sauce sounds great and your peppers are some I have ripening now. Did you smoke the mash...

    yield Why does 1 plant have 40+ peppers and the one next to it 0?

    How about flowers? Did both plants flower the same time? I have a similar situation with one plant in the row with no pods showing. It does have flowers though. I'm wondering if it's possible for a plant to be sterile.

    Some great growth and pods on the Peach Bullet CGN 22184 from the seed train. I'm guessing they will be getting some color soon. I have been misting and adding water several times a day with this 100+ heat wave. It can end any time!

    plant Do I have Naga Jolokia?

    I think these are destined to be powder. Thanks for the suggestions. Perhaps the seeds made their way to the 'train' from a DR or CD contribution? I didn't think to mark my sample with the source.

    plant Do I have Naga Jolokia?

    I dug into the seed box and found the packet I grew from. I had it labeled Naga Jolokia PC-1. That would be how it was labeled on the seed train. I did another net search and some pictures popped up that look like my plant. Hippy seed company sold them at one time. Here is some info I found. I...

    plant Do I have Naga Jolokia?

    I grew out a couple plants from Naga Jolokia seed train seeds. They don't look like the pictures I can find of the ripening pods. The plants are growing narrow and tall with pods pointed upwards so far. They dont seem to have any heat while green. I did have one early pod ripen to red that had...

    The over wintered coyote tooth is doing its thing. I really like this pepper for taste and the volume of small peppers it cranks out. The picture does not do it justice. There are over 100 peppers on this small plant. It has another month or 2 to continue! Great included in salsa and sauces. It...

    I took a couple Annum pod pictures this morning. These were seed train seeds. Giant jalapeno, dragon toe, fish pepper, peppedew. All of my hatch type chilies are also looking great. This is fantastic weather.

    recipe-help Who has made a blueberry based hot sauce?

    Gorkde, Your sauce sounds and looks amazing. How sweet is it with the 350g sugar? I imagine the vinegar might tend to balance it out. I have been neglecting my blueberry sauces but now am restocked with this year's blueberry and raspberry crop. It's time for another attempt. Thanks for your...

    The Annuum's stalled for a while but seem to be adjusting ok. I managed to resolve my garden pest problem and I'm not in jail. The standout so far is the Dragon's toe, and the peppadew plants. They have been first to set fruit and are growing fast. I'm pleased with the weather so far this year...

    I can relate. I have a deer that is willing to walk through electric fence wire to get into the garden. So far, the beet and spinach patch have been impacted. My pepper patch is next to this area, and I know it's just a matter of time before they are the target. Its war now. I hope I don't get...
