    wanted Looking for C.flexuosum seeds for 2016 season

    I don't usually start collecting seeds for the next season so early, but this guy seems to be pretty rare.  Does anyone have seeds, or could refer me to someone who does?  Willing to pay or trade for seeds, though I'm assuming if you have C.flexuosum, I probably don't have anything interesting...

    This all sounds so awesome!  I wasn't able to make it out last year, but I'm hoping to day trip it out on Saturday.  It'll be great to put some faces to names  :onfire:

    Turbo 2015 Pepper Growing: Keeping It Simple (Stupid)

      Hey Bill, I just picked this little guy this morning.  This is what (I think) Cheiro Roxa look like when they get ripe.  They get this light purple / pinkish color to them.

    How do you store your peppers?

    For me it depends on what you want to do with them.  If you plan on making a sauce, freezing is actually a neat trick to make a smoother sauce.  Like D3monic said, freezing them breaks down the cell structure a bit, so when they thaw out they are...not so crispy and fresh.  But this is perfect...

    Turbo 2015 Pepper Growing: Keeping It Simple (Stupid)

      Hey Bill, my Cheiro Roxa plants went through a big growth spurt the past 3 weeks, tripling in size.  More tall than wide, like you said.  They have a ton is small peppers going.  From what I can tell they don't seem to get any bigger than a large marble.  It also seems that the pods start off...

      Thanks OCD, I've been waiting until I've got enough peppers to pull a sauce together, and I think I'm finally there.  Now all I need to do is get off my butt and make it   Thanks OP!  Its good to see your late start plants are starting to put out some pods too.  Depending on how long the...

    Turbo 2015 Pepper Growing: Keeping It Simple (Stupid)

    Last year bpwilly donated a couple plants to me, including a MOA that grew into a huge beautiful bush...that only produced a single pod.   Well, I kept the seeds and figured I'd give MOA another shot this year.  Doesn't look like I have the same issue as last year.     This sucker is full of...

    Turbo 2015 Pepper Growing: Keeping It Simple (Stupid)

    The temps have cooled off here in Seattle.  We're alternating between one week in the 70's, the next back in upper 80's, and little rain.  My plants seem to like this way better than the upper 90's we had a month ago, as I've seen a big growth spurt the past 3 weeks.  Or...thats just their...

    Turbo's Slog (Hot Sauce Log with a silent H)

    Garlic Confit   I know...its not a sauce...or even have peppers in it.  But this is AWESOME!  If you like baked garlic, try this.  Its even better.   Harvested my garlic a few weeks ago.  Each year about 10% of the bulbs I harvest are not storage worthy.  They may have a bit of rot in a couple...

    Turbo 2015 Pepper Growing: Keeping It Simple (Stupid)

      Thanks Chuck!  For the Starfish I've been thinking about a very simple sauce.  Something with few ingredients to try and highlight its flavors.  Probably a mix of Starfish and Aji Peruvian peppers, some white onion, garlic, cane vinegar, some lemon juice, and salt.    Pull Update   Pulled my...

    Brazilian starfish ?

    This is my first year growing the b.starfish.  This is what mine look like.  Just ate my first ripe pod a couple days ago.  LOVED it.  Sweetest hot pepper I've ever tried, with a long back taste of lemon candy.  Heat was pretty mild
