  Adding fruit after the ferment does not negatively effect the overall quality of the fermented sauce.  It adds to it.    It also does not have an impact on the shelf life of said hot sauce, provided your pH is acceptable.   You do not necessarily have to add more acid to a previously...

  Yes I have a recipe, but getting the ingredients is tough.  Tree tomatoes are not available around these parts and the frozen pulp is expensive.

Paypal is usually very good with returning money if you were scammed.  Make sure you send them all the documentation you listed here.  Sorry and good luck.

  I had three plants in our raised beds three years or so back the last time I had them.  Kept trying to grow them because I love that sweet heat.  Lots of foliage, very few peppers.  What peppers I did get took forever to ripen.  Maybe a total of 8-10 ripe pubes from 3 plants for the entire...

Just chiming in cause I noticed the OP is in Chicago.  It's tough grow any pubescens where we're at.  a lot of flower drop, not many pods - just my experience thus far after growing them for several years.  our weather just isn't all that compatible with them.  they are readily available at most...

This here - see - this is a thread that I read early on in my visits to THP.  Way back when I was a lurker, before I even had an account.  And reading then about how much this site collectively comes together, to appreciate each other, and seeing it still going on now - man it gets me all right...

  Welcome to THP!  :)   You don't have to take cuttings off your plants and grow those out.  You can dig them up, trim them and overwinter them in your house just like regular house plants.  Search the interwebs for 'overwintering pepper plants'  :)   Also most of the hotter varieties of pepper...

adding to the above:  wild brazil would easily grow in an 8" pot and can produce a lot of fun small pods. 

I have kept several overwinters in my house by the sliding glass door that goes to the back yard for a few years now.  I cut them back when I bring them inside and water weekly if needed just like regular house plants.  Do NOT put them in the garage or anywhere it freezes - they will die.  Water...

I wonder what they crossed the original fish pepper with to achieve the orange one.  pods on the orange one are maybe 3x the size of the pods on a normal fish pepper..   Kinda pretty sure I'll have to grow that too now....   ;)
