Can you plant too many jalapeno plants? 6 this year (twice what I had last year) and wishing I had more...

Welcome from just south of you in York, PA!

First ripe Cumari du Para - I'll grow these forever! Like little spicy citrus candy!

I'm pretty sure it's a frut. X annuum cross. Pod has lots of tobasco similarity: namely very soft, delicate, juicy flesh.

Here is a pic of Hot Ecuador from this year's grow:

:welcome:   I haven't tried many of the varieties you've listed, but I really like Alma.  They are sweet, juicy and very tasty fresh and would be great stuffed or sliced on a salad or whatever.  My wife even likes em!  :dance: Hoping enough pods survive fresh consumption to be made into paprika.

I'm doing quite a bit of companion planting this year, and not just with my peppers. Anxious to see how it turns out.

Few, that last shot of bonnet vodka from the bottle nearly made me toss my cookies!

I did this year with quart sized bags. They're working well. Plants are maybe 40% larger in the bags than the solo cups, generally.

Is it too early to be thinking about Bowers 2014??? :think:   :onfire:  http://www.pepperfestival.com/Welcome.html :onfire:   Have to admit I've thought of it often as I watch the snow fall outside my windows at work!
