So far so good  

  I absolutely loved the chupetinhos I grew last year, they make the best pickled peppers ever IMO. Also I was under the impression that the biquinho is the no heat version of the chupetinho but you say yours were hot? I know they are supposed to be pretty similar just one hot one not so I'm...

Last year I planted 4 chiltepins with the idea of having them become permanent since they are native to this area and I'm happy to report 4 out of 4 survived the winter in ground with no help from me.    This is what they looked like in early March when they started waking up:        After...

After growing more stuff than I could even give away last year I've cut my list down from 24 peppers to 17 to leave a bit of room for some herbs.   Peppers:  Chupetinho (2 + 1 overwinter) Biquinho Yellow (2) MOA Scotch Bonnet (2) Fatalii (2) Aji Dulce #1 (2) Tabasco (2) Texas Chiltepin (4...

If it was then the government would probably ban recreational gardening.  :D

Chiltepins thrive in hot arid climates and they have tiny leaves and tiny pods. They are drought tolerant, produce pods in 100+ deg heat and even survive the winter here which typically has 12 or less days of freezing temps with lows reaching upper 20s. They require almost no care and are often...

Still going strong down here in Texas. Was 93 degrees today.    I can't even give enough peppers away at this point       Plants still haven't quite broke 6 feet but really really close       Infinite supply of chiltepins     Same with sweet datils. Such a prolific plant.       Getting...

I wish I could vote twice because D3monic's cheeseteak looked phenomenal and those homemade buns were on point.     JayT was very close third too because for the pho by itself because holy crap. If this was soup only that would have got my vote in a heartbeat. Sandwich just wasn't my thing but...

Beautiful pics but man I couldn't stand living up north of the wall with all you wildlings. It's gonna be 92 here in Austin this weekend and I'm going out kayaking  :cool:

If you saved seeds unless you isolated the plant it is possible it crossed all own its own. 

I've seen a pequin or two in my day and all the ones I've ever seen have had the fruit pointing upright. This is first one I've ever seen that has pods are pendant.    Any idea if there is a varitey of pequin that is supposed to have pendant pods or is this one a bit of a freak?     Edit: There...

Wiki about the thermoplastic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycaprolactone   There are several brands out on the market (instamorph, plastimake, etc) that sell this thermoplastic that is moldable by hand, extremely strong and reusable. It's really cool stuff, you just dunk it in 140F water for...

Happy birthday!   :bday:  :cheers:

  I've had an indoor grow with 400w hps before and it was pretty easy to manage temps using a tent. I just used a cheap walmart round desktop fan taped onto some ducting to blow cold air through the cool tube reflector and it kept the glass cool enough to touch. Never used an HID light without...

Ever since I saw one of these at the local hydro shop I've been interested in purchasing one once the price came down a bit. If you are unaware of what a ceramic metal halide is it is very similar to regular metal halide lights except it uses ceramic instead of quarts allowing it to operate at...

Full disclosure: I couldn't resist the urge to investigate this hippie horseshit and bought some. :lol:     Tbh they're pretty good grapes. Maybe I should get take my garden into the shop and get my shit aligned lol.  :rofl:

I saw this sign at Central Market grocery store here in Austin earlier and couldn't believe this lol. When organic just isn't organic enough apparently there is super organic. "Grown in alignment with the moon and stars."   Pls don't California my Texas.
