    Rocoto growing recommendations?

    The blend, is pretty much what I had around here; composted kitchen scraps, some leftover Miracle Grow Moisture Control, some yard dirt, and some bunny poo...you can see that on the top, but some is mixed in as well. I've been trying this "blend" for several potted peppers, and some seem happy...

    Rocoto growing recommendations?

    I've also heard they can be finicky; maybe I just got a lucky plant at the local nursery. Here's my Red; picked the pod this morning: and the plant, which has been suffering from the "June Gloom" the past couple of weeks: and here's my new Yellow Manzano, which looks to be doing OK: I...

    Rocoto growing recommendations?

    My Red Manzano seems to like morning sun, warm weather ('70s-'90s - but not really scorching hot - leaves burn), and not too much water - especially when cool. They grow BIG, so like a BIG pot, or ground space. Mine in the yard was about 7' wide and 5'-6' tall, before I cut it back. I think they...

    Another "Help with ID" please...

    Hey folks, I picked this up, tagged only as "Cranberry Red" pepper.. No idea what it is. Blossoms have bright orange centers. Leaves somewhat long and narrow, with serrated edges. It's about 14" tall in this picture. Any ideas..? Thanks, Duane

    Can Swap - Red Manzano & Hot Lemon Seed

    Just remembered - can swap seed from these too; "Habanero de Arbol" and "Negro de Arbol": ^ Negro de Arbol - pods start green, go black, and ripen to red. Fairly hot. ^ Habanero de Arbol - pods ripen to light orange color. Have a somewhat intense, fruity/perfume flavor. Best used in...

    Yellow Rocoto

    I know you want the yellow, but I've got some Red Manzano (Rocoto) seed, if you'd like that. I'm also growing some Yellow Manzano this year, but no yellow seed yet; my yellow plant just started blooming. Happy to swap for other pepper seed... :)

    Can Swap - Red Manzano & Hot Lemon Seed

    Hey guys, seed went out today. :) I still have one packet of the Hot Lemon left, some more Choco Hab, and LOTS of the Red Manzano. Oh - and found some Hungarian Black pods I'd dried on another paper plate (I had these stashed on a shelf and forgot 'em), so I can supply some seed from those...

    YES - to all; thanks! I'll PM both of you. BTW- Also found some Chocolate Hab pods from last season I can take seeds from; these were left to dry on a paper plate, not in the dehydrator. :)

    Can Swap - Red Manzano & Hot Lemon Seed

    Hey folks, I've never done any seed swapping, but have lots of Red Manzano seed from mature peppers (yes, they're black), and some "Hot Lemon" (supposedly from Ecuador) seed. I've had good results germinating both, so it's viable seed. BTW - the Red Manzano bush in my back yard is 7'+ wide, and...
