    1967g + 93g = 2060 grams... I hit two kilos just before Columbus day. It's cooling off noticeably now and we could get frost any time. Cheers all! Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk

    1801g + 78g + 88g = 1967 grams... it looks like I'll hit two kilos for sure before frost hits. The plant's slowing down for sure in the wake of cooler and cloudier weather. These two pulls were each after a few warm and sunny days in a row. There's still green pods on the plant but they're...

    Picked another 136g + the 1665g subtotal for a new total of 1801 grams. I'm thinking I should hit at least 2 kilos in the next week or two. Not bad for New England. You folks in the more southerly climes have a bit of an edge in the length of your season, but you still gotta have mad skilz to...

    Cheers Scott. [emoji4] Sounds like you're getting the rain we had at the end of August. My onion skins were so wet for so long before I harvested, that they had rotted where they came in contact with the soil. Now I know that I shouldn't leave them out so long when the tops die in those kind of...

    Hi all! The Wife's away this morning, so I'm making a batch of my "Self Immolation" sauce by roasting 3 pounds of my hottest chiles and as many heads of garlic. When they're nice and soft I'll puree them in a blender with fresh basil leaves, vinegar and salt, and run it all through a food mill...

    Cool! Which variety did you plant Scott? I recently picked up a book called "Eating on the Wild Side" by Jo Robinson, that talked about which varieties of common vegetables have the best antioxidant and phytonutrient content, and how best to store and prepare them to preserve those properties...

    I did not want to hear that... [emoji53] We generally can stretch things out here to Columbus Day, but after that the frost comes when it will. Things got so dry here the past week that the leaves were wilted and hanging limp until we got a soaking rain yesterday. Here's today's pull...

    Today's pull... 1122g + 211g = 1333 grams. Unless we get some rain soon, it looks like I'll be tapping out at around a kilo and a half. Cheers! Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk

    It's been hot and hasn't rained for about 3 weeks so the remaining pods are smaller and are ripening quickly. Here's another 81 grams for a total of 1122 grams... it looks like I'll be pretty much done by the end of next week, barring a few stragglers. Cheers all! Sent from my SM-S327VL using...

    Cheers guys! I'm definitely in sauce-making mode with the Chinense varieties, and drying my Annuums in the solar dehydrator. I finished a case of tomato-based sauce with Bhuts today that's incredible on pizza if mixed into the tomato sauce on it. I went out to my Mom's for a cookout today and...

    The Chinense chiles are really stepping up here now... right on time. [emoji16] here's one day's harvest of MoAs, Douglahs, CARDI Yellow Scorps. There's even a ripe Manzano. The only fly in the ointment is what looks like pepper maggots in the Red Rocotos. 4 pods looked to be ripening and they...

    About the only difference between your charcoal and Scott's is that yours was screened and washed. That's not necessary for making Terra Preta soil. It doesn't require seasoning, it's good to go as an adsorbant material, but you can "charge" it with liquid nutes before or after working it into...

    Planting in the ground is the largest possible pot. I'd still feed them like crazy though... [emoji6] Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk

    Really nice money shot John, looks like you're in the sweet spot now! I notice you didn't mention SB varieties much... have you gone completely over to the dark side? [emoji6] Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk

    Another 145 grams for a total of 977 grams... almost a kilo! I don't think I'll see two kilos before it frosts here, but a kilo and a half seems do-able. Not bad for our New England climate. [emoji16] Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk
