Yeah, that's pretty much what i thought would happen.

If you can find seeds, Windchicken had crossed a chile he calls Bonda Mahala, it's stank is legendary. If you can't score those, one of the parent cultivars is called Bonda Ma Jacques. It is very aromatic and chock-full of chinense stankiness. A lot of folks complain about that...

Holy shit. That's so obvious, yet i never considered that until now. The weird measures i took with my seedlings this season were just labor-intensive and sorta ineffective. Topping for uniform height? That sounds brilliant.

Gawttdaaaaaaang

Yes. No question. Grow the Billy Bikers and the Zapotecs, compare then head to head. Shit, that's how i came to choose the Zapos as my preferred Jalapeño. They won a shoot-out against like 4 other types.

Grew these next to Freeports. Both varieties produced pods both with and without stingers. They looked almost identical; i could tell which were which mostly by the note angular grooves betwixt the Freeports' lobes. They tasted pretty much identical, too. We did plenty of "Pepsi challenge" tests...

I cannot offer any advice specific to dehydrating chiles, but i do want to say that i love everything about THP except for the search feature. I've had far better results going to Google and typing in my query followed by thehotpepper.com in the search bar. You get a lot more relevant results...

Oh, Pepper_Jack love Fraggle Rock!

I grew Poblanos last year. They take a long time to ripen. Like, baccatum-long. This year, i grew mulattos instead. Basically, they're brown Poblanos. They take a long time to ripen, too, but not quite so long as last year's Poblanos did. I planned my grow out much better this year, staggering...

That's probably wise

Yeah, three orders under my belt from Semillas. None of those took longer than 2 weeks.

Pepperlover lists a lot of pubes, but never seems to have more than a hand full of them in-stock. Semillas has more pubes than any other site I've seen. https://www.semillas.de/cgi-bin/shop_en/shop.cgi?shop=%22%22&keywords=Capsicum%20pubescens&cart_id=%22%22 One of these years, I'll muster the...

CPI certainly isn't the cheapest, but they're cheaper than Duffy and they're the real-deal it comes to any of the NuMex varieties.

If you look at the link posted on the Zapotec thread, you'll see that the Lemon Spice (and the Pumpkin and Orange Spice) are single-species crosses that have been in-development for a quarter century. They're stable. No surprises. Your Lemon Slice that ripened red is probably an unintended...

Despite my many flaws, i am proud to say that I'm consistent, lol. I think i have Paper Lantern seeds; i gotta check my stash. I like annuums and tomatoes just fine, too. I also like strawberries but not enough to grow any. But I'm absolutely obsessed with chinense...

I grew the large orange Thai and the smash orange Thai last year. Didn't grow either again, but I got some volunteer large orange Thai plants popping up that have been producing ripe pods these past few weeks. I think the small version was slightly tastier, but they are tiny and filled to...

I suggest just rolling with the punches. Make a sauce and add a few ounces of Palmolive or Dawn, see how that goes... A more serious suggestion is to give plus to some other ppl for second opinions. It might taste off to you, but it may not be a universal perception. Another thing that has...

I blow thru the mild powders quite quickly. Ancho, Guajillo, Pasilla Negra, mulatto all go QUICK... So does Chipotle powder bc it's just so useful. The hotter stuff just doesn't go as fast.... Depends on what my cooking habits are. Coming up on chili season and, more importantly, chili...

My pests this year, the only ones that did any legit damage, were stankbugs and earwigs. Lately, I've been noticing some big ol grasshoppers, and they're doing some chewing but between the earwigs and the stinkers, I've lost a whole lot of decent pods. It's infuriating. I grow in two different...

All I can say is, many of my Supers produce far more pods than my Aji Jobitos & similar chinense... But my stankbugs are more into the SuperHots than anything else. They are utterly destroying my one bed and I'm so distraught about it
