The last few times this happened to me, I tried applying mineral sprays to the leaves (I don't know if foliar spraying is correct in english) and within a few weeks it stopped dropping flowers. When a plant grows in a small pot, it dries quickly and we have to water more often, this is like...

I've 2020 Gourmet fatalii jigsaw black seeds. Every year I think about grow it to taste it, but then a more attractive pepper always appears. I guess I think the same as @thoroughburro says... "there are a lot of super hot ones in the game, and a lot of them are famous for their taste too."...

I made some fermented sauces with yellow SB MOA and Papa Dreadie, but I didn't notice that the SB brought any added value to the mixture. It was basically the sriracha recipe, but with SB. I use SB and goats for tropical sauces, with fruits (mango, peach, pineapple or guava), chutney, jam or...

This year I grew 2 plants. One of them gave me peppers with a classic annum flavor, with slight nuances of something similar to the shade of Aji mango. The spiciness was quite low. The color of these was pale apricot. The second plant gave me slightly larger, apricot-colored pods, with all...

In my opinion, the habanero taste is the classic chinense flavor, but fruitier. For me, the bonnet has that habanero base but its more intense, deeper, more tropical and fruitier. Its like the improved version. For my, the Bahamian goat flavor is quite mild and resembles that of bonnet, but...

How did it go with 7 Pot Burgundy? I finally got it this year, after 3 years with various problems, I was able to have my first 2 Burgundy plants. I found them to be one of the best varieties I have ever tried. Really sweet, with a mild flavor, very non-invasive, some hints of honey. The heat...

Welcome from Spain!!

In my opinion, goats are real winners. It is among my 5 favorite peppers. The flavor is similar to that of a bonnet, but, in my opinion, it is less intense, sweeter and more complex. The two strains I have develop passion fruit nuances. I love Bonnets, they are also real winners for me, but...

This happened to me last year with the Carolina Reaper: One plant produced about 15 pods. The other plant 0 pods. This year the same with BOC: One plant has almost 20 green pods hanging... I removed the other after 3 failed flowering rounds. I saw that in plants that do not produce pods, the...

I understand what @Marturo says. I also understand what @ahayastani is saying. I find it funny to have this division of opinions and that both are so enriching. *I think what Marturo is trying to say is that you should remove the pepper while it is still small. In my opinion, both are right...

This is a good jungle for you, Marc. I can't imagine myself keeping that density of plants clean. I make rows of two so I don't have to bend down too much. Sunburns are inevitable, but the sun gives our plants so many benefits that it is worth seeing them uglier. Powdered kaolin clay is...

In 2017 and 2018 I got a good germination rate from badskinsgarden.be, I don't remember well, maybe 50-60%. In 2021 I tried again, I bought 10 different varieties, about 120-130 seeds... a few germinated (I don't remember well, maybe 7 or 8 in total), of which almost all died. In the end I...

Yes, it is very disappointing. At least the purchased seeds germinated well

Hi!! I said I would be back to update my Chilaca seed germination test. Well, after 24 days, I got nothing of more than 50 seeds extracted from two apparently ripe chilaca peppers (purchased at a market in Oaxaca). I add my note in honor of tenacity: After 6 days, I had 22 sprouts from 30...

Welcome!!! Enjoy!!

The truth is that I have always collected my seeds from freshly ripened peppers. I have never had problems like this. I have been able to observe that when the peppers spend a long time on the plant, the edges of the seeds wrinkle and darken. I never keep seeds looking like this. I'll keep...

This year I bought some chilacas on a trip to Oaxaca and saved quite a few seeds. They were also brown. At the end of this month I will germinate them and I will tell you what happens. Feel free to ask me if you think I forgot to report.

This happened to me with a pepper that rested on the ground. The tip got moldy. It's too bad for you, it's a good pepper.

Every year I do a small plantation from august to december to get peppers to get seeds from. I had the opportunity to plant REZHA MACEDONIAN and VEZENA PIPERKA, facing each other. I honestly couldn't find any serious differences. To say the least, maybe Vezena Piperka gave slightly smaller...
