    Those are some real beauties Dale!!! Papa Dreadie will grow into massive, insanely productive trees in larger containers. Seven gallons would not be too large, and I promise you will not regret doing that... :cool:   Tropical Storm Cindy passed through here yesterday, with not much wind, but...

  You are too kind, Scott!       Wow, thanks so much John!

Chile pepper plants of the New Mexico pod type (Capsicum annuum). The variety, bred at New Mexico State University's Chile Pepper Institute in Las Cruces, is NuMex Sandia Select, probably my favorite of all the New Mexico chiles. This bed was built in 2013 of the native irony, clayey, silty sand...

  That really looks like hornworm damage. Check for large, blocky feces below the damaged areas...

  Thanks Chris! Yes, the hornworms are awful this year, but not devastatingly so. The plants are okay for the most part...To be honest, the worst damage I've suffered has been from root burn from the super-rich RCW soil. So far I've lost two of the Big Jims to it, and one of the Zapotec...

Thanks Paul!   Hey guys, this is Chris Dennis's (MeatHead1313) off-pheno Chocolate NagaBrain (We are guessing CNB x 7 Pot Primo)...Solid NagaBrain kick without the floral or the gut bomb. Good flavor:

  Thanks Scott! I agree, it's been a heck of a year for hornworms, starting way earlier than usual...This one marks the seventh or so that I've found in the Big Jim bed alone....

  Lol, Paul! I'm seriously thinking about letting my garden workers dig these volunteer plants up and re-pot them for sales...Seems like such a waste to let them languish like that...   Thanks so much for your kind words. This year has really seen the previous years' work pay off. That, and the...

YESSS!!! BRILLIANT!!!

  I'm on it dude...

  Thanks so much Scott! It looks like an HGTV installation compared to some of the wanky shade canopies I've seen on YouTube and other places around the Interwebs. Your suggestion sounds real close to what I was thinking about, but with treated poles rather than 4x4s...The only problem will be...

  Thanks so much for saying that, Simmy!  :dance:   This season has brought a multitude of volunteer plants, I have to assume because the RCW soil is just now coming into its peak fertility. Check out these volunteers of Chocolate NagaBrain, growing in a disused bed I built in 2012:  

  Thanks Chuck! That uniformity is a manifestation of my OCD... There's something about straight, evenly-spaced rows of lush chile plants that's very soothing to me...   The Scorpion is a really fun plant to grow for me, with the lush foliage and the vigorous, massive plants, but most of all...

  Thanks Chuck!       Thanks Scott! Yes, I did...There's just a bit more to do, and that fence will be electrified... :cool:   I was just in the garden admiring Butch's Mississippi Scorpion plants (nearest the camera) after last night's rain, and snapped this photo:  

Thanks Rob! I'm looking forward to that photo! I have to tell you that now it's driving me nuts that that one bed is split between Lumbre and Barker's Hot... :rolleyes:  

Here ya go, Jason. My Zapotec plants, today, June 5...  

  Looking real good there Scott!!! :dance:     Nice! You may have something special there, then, Matt...Sounds like the other pollen was from Forbing Naga... :cool:     +1 what you said, John...By the way, Denniz Pablo is unable to log into his THP account, but wanted me to tell you that he's...

I agree, Scott. Except there were no NagaBrains in that garden....Red chinense plants growing near the Papa Dreadies last season were BTR Scorpion and Forbing Naga...
