    Its not even a habanero. It's a bell pepper.

    Aquaponic systems (let's experiment together!)

    What size pump (volts&amps, watts), size battery in amp hours and exact location. I can then tell you what size array you will need to run that system wholly on solar. I am a solar installer and have lots of interest in that stuff.

    Proof that winning is always optional!!!

    Well bad luck strikes again even though I knew this spell of it from the moment I got pod sets. Finally got a ripe one to drag to the nursery and ask for an explanation.... Honestly never had this problem before from this particular nursery. Anyway here is my scotch bonnet!! I imagine this...

    Aquaponic systems (let's experiment together!)

    Yeah definitely an amazing learning experience. I visited the solar lab of the local community college which now has an aquaponic class which they do each quarter. Here are the pictures of their setup. They are growing mainly lettuce and herbs and they have such a high stocking density of...

    Island_Dan 2013 Glog (First super hot grow season!)

    Well update I guess since it has been a while. My early girl tomato is huge!! Been getting lots if ripe tomatoes from her. Almost every pepper plant has pods but by far the meanest looking are the yellow 7 pot pods. The burgundy 7 pot, fatalii yellow, TS yellow, orange habs, seasoning...

    Aquaponic systems (let's experiment together!)

    Wow yours is taking off!! My yellow perch are almost 5 inches now and nitrates are off the board. PH is now at 7.9 but still up there. I have been vigilant with my water changes and it is slowly taking the PH down. The plants are starting to finally grow and I replanted the grow beds after not...

    A spade is a spade right?

      This is very true also! In St. Lucia, everything is sold as a scotch bonnet but I can tell the difference between the shapes of a bonda ma jaque, habanero or scotch bonnet that is being sold, all under the scotch bonnet name. Since those three are the only hot peppers grown commercially for...

    A spade is a spade right?

    It is my understanding though that the Douglah is not a cross created by the pepper community but actually a wild variety found in Trinidad as I have seen Douglah's for sale in local markets in Trinidad long before this site ever existed or before the 7 pot made its way out of Trinidad and into...

    Suppose to be morugas. Yay or nay

    Thanks for the input LDHS I will give it a week. So I will say yay also on morugas. The second set of pods are bumping up.

    Suppose to be morugas. Yay or nay

    This is what happened to them. Cooked up and made into a sauce. It has agave, honey, cider vinegar, diced pineapples and diced mangoes plus all the peppers. (Thanks Pex for guidance with my first sauce attempt). Anyway great flavor for about a second and then it punches hard in the face for...

    water DWC water level

    You really just have to wait until the plant is ready. I have two MONSTER moruga plants that wont set any pods yet and they are given full on bloom nutrients. The amount of dropped pods is staggering but just got to give them some time.

    hybrid I test the Moruga x Butch T cross

    I hate that capsaicin taste. Not desirable at all. Good job though. Handled it well!

    Suppose to be morugas. Yay or nay

    Yeah I was concerned about the outside appearance. Hopefully the second set of pods will be more bumpy. My experience is that always the first pod set never look very true. Might be a cross with something since these are OP. I stupidly cut that pod open without gloves, rubber my forehead and...

    Suppose to be morugas. Yay or nay

    Just did my first harvest on that plant. It was one of those i was not 100% sure of but was labeled as moruga TS when I got the seeds.

    Well here is a new one. I bought a scotch bonnet plant from a well known Nursery here in Omaha and that ended up being a bell pepper also!

    chinense Looks like we had the same idea today. My Reaper Review

    Yeah exactly! Some reviewers, I will not mention names, PEXPEPPERS, they keep good composure but you can see the physical distress at least by tears rolling down their eyes and the red flush taking over their face, but still manages to keep it together. Nigel is a pepper eating beast like the...

    chinense Looks like we had the same idea today. My Reaper Review

    I will never got over seeing some of you guys do this and with a straight nonchalant look on your face, simply say "There is quite significant pain at the back of my throat."   Significant pain should be met with screams and breaths of fire!!! It either doesn't hurt that much, you are Hulk...
