  Yeah - I tried pressure canning and it didn't work - The ingredients combined with the heat I don't think allowed for the mixture to jell properly.  I am still working on this one, and I'll attempt to get it right, and when/if I do i'll share it here. 

    I used bacon flavoring, unfortunately after multiple attempts of pressure canning real bacon in the jam the heat wouldn't allow the jelling process to occur.     The below recipe is an adaptation of a recipe online.  I found theirs to be missing key flavors, and not be preservable.   ...

I personally will not be invested into LED until it can produce a 20 diode.      I looked into a DIY system, learned the ins and outs, and came to the conclusion that until the tech catches up to the need I won't be looking into it.  

Very nice picture of Jupiter.   Looks like a text book. 

I had an odd theory that the salt and clay had something to do with it, being on the coast.      Maybe my seed stock just always sucks.  - That would make me feel better about the occasionally abysmal germination rates I have from saved seeds. 

  I think the freeze-thaw cycles kill them or cause them to rot.  I'm not sure though.  Which is why I'm doing the experiment. 

I don't have peppers seeds survive the winter.  I left some outside in the soil as an experiment from last year, no movement yet.  We will see though.      Nothing like free plants.      I say you do a give away.  Uproot them suckers and get em stable in a pot and send em to your fellow pepper...

I had this issue this year with ferts.    I got some chem burn on a couple plants from watering.  Same species, different sides of watering, and no other plants were effected.  I guess the brown morugas are a bit more delicate than others.  

This looks like the variety that Bonnie Plants was selling a couple years ago advertised as a blend between a bonnet and a habanero.   It had the lantern quality and the dimpled skin shown here.    However, sometimes plants just throw out weird pods when they are really trying to produce fruit...

Well I know where the next revolution will come from.      THP ARMY 

Good morning yall.  I have been up since 3am.  I bought a portable thermometer that has an alarm for various temperatures.  Well I set it to 37 degrees and last night the alarm went off just before 3am.  So I went running out and set up heaters around my plants.    Crisis averted.  No frost.    ...

Jelly is really simple to make.   Best part is most of them can be canned using what you have on hand at home.      I made a bacon bourbon jelly last year with red 7pot.   I ran out of those 9 jars in about a month during bbq season.   I used it as a glaze on ham, ribs, chicken.         The...

A lot of the more fruity/citrus varieties tend to make really good Jelly.      Pepper Jelly might sound weird, but you can use it for Glazing, base for a wing sauce, stir fry, over rice when heated.     I really love pepper Jelly.  lol.
