Happy b-day!  

I suppose I'm pretty late but still... A guy walks into a bar with an alligator. It's about 10 feet long. The bartender flips out and says, "Hey buddy, you gotta get that son of a b*tch outta here. It's going to bite one of my customers and I'm going to get sued." The guy says, "No no no, it's...

DeSoto Parish garden looks great Gary! Great job! Those Numex varieties are a treat! I've still some dried Lumbre and Sandia Select that you generously sent me a couple years ago and they're still flavorful! I'm happy that you have finally reached the right annum/chinense ratio LOL (i'm biased)...

    Thank you Stefan! I've sowed not much by your standards LOL but i'm the bhut realm once more with a couple of funky genetics from the past. I'll put up a small glog if i'm not too lazy :) It's still pretty cold for May down here! Your plants look nice!   Take care   F  

  Time flies my friend! I'm not growing the Karpathos pepper anymore but we should refresh seeds before it's too late, i've still plenty of them and it tasted so good! More bad weather in this past weekend so i'm still delaying transplants... I promise to send you more interesting seeds at the...

  Nice to hear you're doing well Gary! I think of you as well, sometimes i dream about a trip down there LOL would be fun. We're fine as well, my son is in school now and we're pretty busy as usual. I'm keeping my grow on a manageable size and i've sowed a few tasty varieties, especially bhuts...

Thai Orange SSE, Prik-Kee-Noo, Thai Red Hot, Prik Jaew, Thai Dragon... i love them all :) Many of them are sold with different names but look/taste very similar. I'm growing Thai Burapa for the first time this year, should be great as well. Some indonesian and vietnamese peppers are very similar...

Happy b-day!  

Plants look great! I wish you a more clement weather :P   Datil  

Nice to see you back Gary :P Plants look stellar as always my friend! All the best to you and your family for another great season!   F  

Happy b-day!

Since it's already April, try to find some plant in your local nurseries, should not be hard at all. In general many cayenne, thai (orange, red, dragon, ...) and indian peppers (like Pusa Jwala) will do and are usually available everywhere. Also Goat's Weed if you can find it and like something...

  It really depends by the quality/maturity of the seeds at the time of collection and storage method. Unrefrigerated seeds can be a PITA to sprout but still i've had luck with some really old seeds forgotten in a closet. On the other hand, some seeds won't germinate not matter how hard you...

  +1   Here's a couple Naga M. shots from back in the day (awful image quality LOL), mine are not pointy like Chris pods but they're always bumpy (i've grown loads of naga/bhuts):       There's a lot of hybridization happening with open pollinated seeds saving and exchanging, nothing wrong on...

Awesomeness :woohoo:

  This. It seems the beginning of a calcium deficiency, hit them with some CalMag and see if the new leaves grow healthy (if this is the case the old crinkled leaves won't recover as calcium is not mobile). Rest of the grow looks awesome!   Datil  

All looking great! Are you keeping mothers together with peppers? No space/light wasted :)   Datil    

Here you can find some rough guidelines:   https://www.carolinafarmstewards.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/PepperSeedProductionVer1_2.pdf   I'd say it really depends by your quality goals.     Some addictional food for thought:   http://www.thechileman.org/guide_crossing_peppers.php   "Even if...
