    What To Do With Unripe Pods On Plants? Temperatures Dropping

    Ok, here are a couple of pictures.   Here is the Bhut Jolokia   Here is the Brainstrain   And finally the one I could not identify from the pile of plants I rescued it from.  No signs of life, but I feel that it is sowing its roots still.  They are all in an east facing window and it is cool...

    What To Do With Unripe Pods On Plants? Temperatures Dropping

    Ok.  Just a little update on my extreme pruning.  Both plants are showing new growth over the last week.  Not much, but very nice and a healthy green color.  I had also done 2 more plants while she was at work.  One seems to be rather woody looking as well as the other.  Neither of these are...

    Had An Oops Moment Today

    No, heat is not cranked up, just at 72.  No heat mat is being used.  The deli take-out container is in the top of the china cabinet in the dark, no fan or blowing air across them.  I guess that I had just not made sure that the lid was on properly.  One side was partially up in the air.  Thank you.

    Had An Oops Moment Today

    Well, fingers crossed here.  I set a 2 Carolina Reaper and 3 Bhut Jolokia seeds in coffee filters last week here to start for next year and as well a Bonchi trial, but to my horror I came home today to the lid on the container lifted on one end and my filters and seeds were 100% dry!  I am now...

    Need a mask?

    I never used one till this year.  I started without it, then went on to using it.  I use a 3M mask with cartridges and pre-filters, as this is what I have on hand at home.  Works well.

    chinense Difference Between Trinidad Moruga Scorpion And Brainstrain

    Ok. Thanks for the help. I will probably try the scent thing as i feel that I am not up to tasting that many peppers. Even though there are not too many, my novice tastes would probably be able to tell the difference.

    chinense Difference Between Trinidad Moruga Scorpion And Brainstrain

    Hi there.  I just have a question for the experts here.  As a first year grower, I had a little harvest this year, but had a slight mistake.  I had originally put my Moruga Scorpions in one bowl with a few other very different varieties.  In the second bowl, I put just Bhut Jolokia and...

    What To Do With Unripe Pods On Plants? Temperatures Dropping

    @hot stuff - No, no hydro.  Just in those cups with a new soil mix.   @geeme - No, not straight perlite, it is was just on top.  It looked very nice, until I tried to give them a little drink.  So I removed all plants, poured all soil and perlite into a bowl, then mixed thoroughly.  I then...

    What To Do With Unripe Pods On Plants? Temperatures Dropping

    Well, all plants are out of the ground, and all pods were cut off the plants.  I will be getting a cardboard box tomorrow for the next step.   And now for those who recommended the idea of a banana in the box, at what temperature do I do this.  In a cooled environment, such as my insulated but...

    What To Do With Unripe Pods On Plants? Temperatures Dropping

    Thanks all so far.  So far it is looking like I will be getting a cardboard box and a banana.  Ok, that just didn't sound right.  I will be getting a cardboard box and placing a banana (peel on, fully intact) along with peppers in said box and waiting for them to ripen.

    overwintering First Attempt At Overwintering

    Hi there.  Just wanted to share a couple of pictures of my first attempt at overwintering.  I do not have anywhere to keep these things, so a family member is allowing me to overwinter a few plants in his greenhouse.  It does not have much for artificial lighting, but it is covered with opaque...
