    Arachnaphobes beware

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_recluse_spider   Brown recluses are tiny, see the image below, of a large brown recluse next to a penny.   It looks like a crab or huntsman spider, and if so, is harmless.   http://entnemdept.ufl.edu/creatures/urban/spiders/giant_crab_spider.htm

    Butter, oil or bacon juice?

    I came to chime in with sausage grease for sausage gravy but salsalady beat me to it. I usually use butter, have also used bacon grease, lard, tallow, and the leftover chicken fat grease from cooking chicken thighs (almost schmaltz).   My friend's family cooks a goose every year for Christmas...

    water Can't mix neem oil with water

    Get AzaMax, it's derived from neem and works great. Neem nor AzaMax kill bugs, but they don't like plants treated with it. https://www.planetnatural.com/product/azamax-azadirachtin/

    Age your hot sauce in... seconds?

    They have those magnetic wine agers too, and I don't think they are anything more than a gimmick.   I'd also be concerned about putting metal in a ferment due to the acid content (from the guy who literally dissolved the metal parts of his French press he was fermenting in... the press is...

    Sous Vide Branzino

    This looks awesome, I love branzino. I actually just pulle my Joule out for the first time and put in a chuck tender to make roast beef for sandwiches. I came here looking for ideas and glad I saw this!

    Do you use neem as a cure or a prevention?

    Doesnt kill them, drives them off. They prefer untreated plants.

    Plant/Garden Software?

    https://edyn.com You could also get Bluetooth sensors for moisture and probably set up and Arduino or RaspberryPi with some PVC pipes and valves to auto water... I dont know how to do that but Id be willing to bet an IT guy could figure it spending a couple hours on YouTube

    frutescens Frutescens: Why do people seem less interested in it?

    I found the tabasco peppers that I grew last season to be very juicy and soft, unlike the firm and crisp you get when biting into an annum or chinense. Pop of heat that subsided quickly, not a ton of flavor but enjoyable in their own way. Unfortunately I didnt get many pods as the roots never...

    favorite edit: favorite chile LOOKS ONLY EDITION

    Favorite chile for looks only. Take taste and heat completely out of it. What pepper do you think has the best look? To use celebrities as an example, I have the biggest crush on Anna Kendrick. She's cute, funny, seems like someone I would wanna hang out with (this would be your favorite chile...

    favorite edit: favorite chile LOOKS ONLY EDITION

    Another way to ask would be "what's your favorite pepper pheno?" or what's your favorite pepper to look at, taste/heat not considered? I grew some very cool looking caramel bhuts and JRGS this year, both had great looks. I don't particularly care for the Moruga or apocalypse pheno and prefer...

    Do you use neem as a cure or a prevention?

    It's both, it can discourage pests but also acts as a larvicide. It's good stuff.

    Curry sounds great, so does a traditional chicken (or turkey, HELLO! There should be some leftover turkey around!) that is spicy as all hell!
