So many forms look similar enough to this that I am not able to identify the variety, however 7 pot Jonah is definitely one of the types that looks like that.

NMCPI (New Mexico Chile Pepper Institute) varieties like NuMex Earth Day and NuMex Black Prince (and others like NuMex Centennial etc) fit the description and match the growth habits in the photographs you provide. They have alleles for purple leaves, upright fruit and are dwarf plants often...

I noted I had to reset my ignore list but other than that I like the new changes a great deal. My priorities place forum participation fairly low but it is something I still appreciate.

Nice! I have two forms of edible Agaricus (white and brown button) that grow in my Zea patch, though only half a dozen have arisen this year. This Utah drought is not mushroom friendly.

It is worth noting that in the paper they describe using QTL markers for coding regions relative to the production of capsaicin; for screening purposes. This means that plants can be evaluated for the presence of super hot alleles in the seedling stage before fruiting. This paper can even be...

Don't know the name of the actual selection but I bought some Thai peppers (prik kee noo) at a market, I took some seed and planted some and the yield is early and massive. I just call them Thai Sky. Often forms for sale in markets perform amazingly.

Criteria that we decide as individuals. I cull for lots of reasons. A plant could be perfect in every way but one and I could cull it or it could have but a single trait I want and I could keep it. It all depends.

I bought dried Pequin chiles at the supermarket and planted the seeds by putting them in a pot with a potting mix and watering it, I kept it in a warm spot and had a lot of germination. Seeds from green fruit, that has reached full size can often have a germination rate of over 60%, however...

My garage temps are too cold for Capsicum and overwintering isn't always easy, though it can often be done. However I took cuttings last year (on October 13 2020) and literally kept them in a cup in a widow and just changed the water at least every other day to keep it fresh. Those cuttings did...

The other day I watched a single bee in my garden go from a Piquin to a Tabasco, to a Borg-9, to a habanero and continue for a few more plants before I lost track of it. At each of these plants it visited 1-3 flowers. Bees have been observed in the garden at nearly all times of day when the...

Among the varieties in my present garden I have a number of plants that are bubblegum related. Among them is Borg-9, my variety of this doesn't have a bleeding calyx however of all the absurdly potent chiles coming out of my garden Borg-9 might be the most insanely hot among them. I expect the...

Seems legit. I would add something mineral based with a nice ion exchange property. I like Utelite, a local product here, but many heat expanded mineral medias work well. I avoid peat, many reasons but it just doesn't give me the results I want. I use alfalfa, I buy it at feed supply stores...

After my plants grown from TexasHotPepper sourced seed began fruiting this year I went and ordered another batch of seeds. Perhaps I should have waited for a promotion but the order is well worth it nevertheless. The bonus seeds this time were almost identical to those of the previous order...

Hi

I believe that Texas Hot Pepper seed is a good deal any day of the year!

Incidentally I've overwintered frost sensitive cacti in a makeshift greenhouse in zone 6a by having hutch with 2 rabbits in the greenhouse. That was the only heat source aside from sunlight and it worked well. Before I tried the rabbits I had used large containers of water with heavy duty...

The self cloning aspect aphids have is brutal. They have a symbiotic bacteria that they require to live. It is possible to exploit this against them but I am not aware of any products that do this. UnNatural has a good point. Isolation is the most effective form of pest control.

Some music I've been working on. Made with Audiosauna and Audacity. It's an 8 song EP (30 min) of electronic music without a distinct genre. I may add vocals at some point this year but I'm not in a hurry. The music is meant to be loud with a decent bass volume and it can sound rather...
