In my experience, those things eat some vegetation but they don't really destroy plants. They are an annoyance, but not a disaster. However, I could see them becoming a problem if they were present in sufficient numbers. In my experience, though, they are mostly lone-wolfin' and munching on...

There's lots of shit that I would do, if only my wife were cool with it. She's pretty flexible, but I know that if I was storing diluted pis to put on my veggie beds, she would hate that. I don't have a problem with it, but I understand that she probably would, too. Same thing would probably go...

Just to be clear: I love standard Orange Habs. I'm growing those as well as BGoats, Freeports, and a few other Bonnet-type things in Chocolate and Red colorways. But I'm growing far more Yellow Bonnets than anything else. Yeah, you can smoke then on a grill, from what I understand. More than...

In my experience, the three yellow Bonnets your growing (TFM, MOA, Foodarama) are very close on trends of heat. I'd rank them just like that, too... TFM>MOA>Foodarama, hottest to least. The Freeport Orange is at least as hot as the TFMs. Incidentally, the Freeports also produce the largest...

Yeah, Mang... I don't know that they're the hottest Jalapeños out there, but I can say that the Zapotecs are the hottest Jalapeños I've tried so far

Looks tasty. Are you certain it was an annuum? Got that chinense look. Quite possibly an annuum/chinense cross, like the Jamaican Hot Mush aka Squash peppers are...

If you're talking about the lil white dots on the leaves, I don't know what you got going on there. But if you're talking about the wrinkled nature of the leaves, I wouldn't worry. When I started growing, I mistook this for a calcium deficiency. And I wondered why only my Bonnets were suffering...

I want to get moving on an indoor propagation project, for no reason other than getting my supply of isolated seeds up, just on the varieties that matter to me. Pretty much none of those varieties are anything esoteric, so getting seeds--even genuinely isolated seedstock-- wouldn't be difficult...

Jajaja, y'all are absolutely right about the isolated seeds. Except I'm pretty sure I'll still grow from open-pollinated stock, especially from seeds I saved myself... I think the important thing will be to carefully weigh just how "important" the specific chiles are too NY future culinary...

JPGS are though as hell. My first year growing, I bought a single plant from CCN simply bc I had seen pics on the "gnarly pod" thread on THP and thought they looked cool. Due to my ineptitude and an Aphid infestation, that JPGS lost every single leaf. It only had a couple when i planted it out...

Earlier this year, I poo-poohed folks here on THP and elsewhere for whining about finding that open-pollinated seeds they'd bought ended up being unknown crosses. My thoughts were (maybe still are?) that you know that's a possibility when you bought the seeds, and that open-pollinated seeds...

I've had both predators and pollinators as welcome long-term residents of my plants. Try to figure out what they are before you panic, and before you spray. Also, try to whip their azz manually before moving towards chemical means. If it is an ant, look again for Aphids bc ants are notorious...

Yeah, I'd give that thing some Alaska fish-stank, pronto

Welcome! Nice job, so far. How is the chile scene in Amsterdam and the surrounding area?

My Starfish haven't ripened yet, but the plants are robust growers and they both have a lot of lil green pods on them. I'm stoked to try them. As far as the JPGS goes, I'm only familiar with the Jay's version using that acronym. AFAIK, Judy at Pepperlover had a superficially similar strain she...

Although they taste pretty good, JPGS isn't my favorite SuperHot in terms of flavor...but they are my favorite in terms of growing. They're just early and heavy producers that consistently bless me with tons of awesome-looking pods. Unbeatable in terms of those parameters. And, unlike some...

That's a bummer

How hot is that thing?

MOA is far from locked in.

I'm conflicted. I don't want anyone to steal my chiles, but I don't want to miss an opportunity to see that happen.
