    How many generations can be grown out from one seed?

    Just to make the point, When I got seeds from Trinidad and Tobago years ago for the Seven Pod, one plant stood out from the rest and that became the mother plant of the Brain Strain line.  All seed you see today that have Brain Strain in the lineage originate from this one plant.  Sure the best...

      Clemson Tigers yes, LSU Tiger or Auburn Tiger heck no.     I am watering twice a day if they need it but try to give them one good soaking if I can get away with it and let them dry out at night.  If you notice I never move my plants once they are planted and they grow roots out the bottom of...

      Thanks Rick that's one hell of a compliment, but my climate is very favorable to growing chiles with the high humidity and long growing season.  We have had a stretch of 100F days this last week and no more flowers seems to be pollinating ATM.  I have enough green pepper already on my plants...

    water Collecting Rain Water

    I have a rain barrel I use as a 55 gallon reservoir I fill each morning with the hose and let the chlorine evaporate off.  I am not doing it anymore but when my plants were younger I would lower the pH of that water to 6.0 to try to mimic rain water.  Now that my plants are bigger I don't worry...
