    annuum What is the best tasting annuum ?

    Yeah, too many good peppers to choose just one. That is very true!!! I forgot another favorite annum. Also, it is landrace from where I live, the Canary Islands. It's "Pimienta de la puta la madre" (Mother Whore Pepper). Incredibly sweet, tasty, like a candy. The heat is variable, some hot...

    chinense 7 pot brain strain yellow, Scotch brain or Trinidad scorpion moruga yellow?

    I agree with you. For years I've been looking for "the perfect pepper for me"...a hot best friend for life. I have found that most of the peppers I have tried are very similar to each other and that their flavor profiles are grouped by color. Fortunately, this is not always the case. And even if...

    chinense 7 pot brain strain yellow, Scotch brain or Trinidad scorpion moruga yellow?

    After a year, here is my information! This year I had the opportunity to try some of the peppers mentioned here, and the conclusion is that they all shared more or less the same flavor profile (intense chinense, sweet, citric and fruity...). This year I was already able to understand a phrase...

    Same thing happened to me. I have seeds to plant for 4 seasons without worrying about buying. Also, I had no interest in buying new seeds until a few days ago...but I just placed an order for seeds....chilliheads are hopeless....

    flavor What's the most umami pepper you've tasted?

    I'm reviving this post to give some useful information that I've discovered since opening it. @gthordarson was right when he said that many dried Mexican chili peppers taste unami. I had a quick work trip to Oaxaca for one week. I had one morning to go to the food market central and buy...

    shopping Seed sellers in Europe

    Lots of interesting information here. WHP used to be a supplier that I liked very much: a very nice guy, with interesting varieties. However I was sad to receive the following message in November 2021: "For my customers in EU nations. I am sorry, but at this time I will not be able to sell to...

    shopping Seed sellers in Europe

    Hello Tinkerbelle099. I bought seeds a few Badskinsgarden.be several years ago and did well. I made a repeat purchase here last year and it was a real disaster. Germination rates were between 0 and 10%. Of the few seeds that germinated, almost all the seedlings died. In short, out of 120...

    sun How much sun is too much?

    Every year, when the temperatures rise (topping 85-90F. degrees) the same thing happens to me. The largest leaves (are also the oldest) turn yellow and fall off. Just as some flowers do not set, the stem turns yellow and they fall. I have to point out that the environmental humidity here on...

    chinense 7 pot brain strain yellow, Scotch brain or Trinidad scorpion moruga yellow?

    Yes, I really think the same as you. If I want to buy only hot pepper seeds, it is better to go to a specialized supplier like Semillas.de, THSC, etc. When I order pepper seeds from others suppliers it is because I have mainly ordered other vegetable seeds (the Pennybun eggplant they've at...

    chinense 7 pot brain strain yellow, Scotch brain or Trinidad scorpion moruga yellow?

    Good luck, in a month you'll have more seedlings than you can grow (as it happens to all of us). I usually buy the seeds from Semillas.de, in three days I've them at home and the quality is assured. I sometimes buy from Texas Hot Peppers and The Hippy Seeds Co., they are also synonymous...

    chinense 7 pot brain strain yellow, Scotch brain or Trinidad scorpion moruga yellow?

    @MarcV soon you'll have your 7 Pot Nebru like the ones in my photo, or better, I'm sure. THSC seeds have very good quality. Also, in Nebru I can see that vigor of the hybrid varieties. Finally, my Trinidad scorpion moruga yellow seeds didn't germinate. From a packet of 15 seeds, none...

    flavor Nature Vs. Nurture

    Whenever I buy habaneros or any hot pepper in supermarkets, it always happens the same, the flavor and aroma are almost gone. I think it is due to a mixture of everything: 'genetics + cultivation * conservation'. That is to say, genetics not selected as we chilliheads do it, generic...
