The only one I have growing is a tiny CAP 1492. It hasn't even flowered even though I've been told that it's supposed to like colder climates. I have seeds for orange manzanos from a couple of different sourzes that I'll be trying next year.

Congratulations! Shouldn't you celebrate by shooting some kind of canned food and posting it for us "Kentucky Style"?

Yeah. How on earth could I? :eek:

Guess why the sauna was invented not far from where I live...

??? Ohhh - you never met my girlfriend! Congratulations dude! Bet you didn't shoot any cans for this!

How does the air smell before a rain? How does it smell during and right after a rain? If you can tell the difference the plants can probably too. Total pseudoscience - I know! But a rain does not only make the roots wet, it also raises the humidity and cleans/feeds the foliage which might...

Happy b-day!

Are these from the seeds distributed and sold by a member here as "purple bhuts"? We don't want any cunfusion here.

My honest opinion is that his yard is the one sticking out. I can appreciate that he seems to be trying hard but as Davetaylor said: "And his symmetry is out of whack, 2 lions, 1 handrail and 1 light and the fact that the imitation victorian streetlamp is white makes it even more tacky, the...

Don't worry - I am going to change it. Soon;)

Nah! I don't think we want to encourage him to be too friendly...

Inbreeding depression is caused by "doubling up" of bad genes, the same way but opposite as the way heterosis are caused by "diluting the genes". We want to make the plant homozygos when it comes to the desired traits (that's what 'stabilizing' is all about) - but how do we avoid inbreeding...

How do you avoid inbreeding depression if you want to keep a strain pure? Say an heirloom like Datil - or Scoch Bonnet TFM or Brain Strain? We isolate flowers/plants because we want to avoid cross breeding and encourage inbreeding.

Yes it does. The purpose of the plant is to reproduce ==> produce ripe seeds which means ripe fruit. They have nothing to gain and everything to lose if they flower and set more fruit when they have fruits ripening or ripe fruits on them. Isn't evolution wonderful?

Why are all unidentified "hab type" pods identified as "carribean reds" these days?

A huge chinense? Yes? A new 7 pod or 8, 9 10, 11 pod? No. Let's get real. We can't orgasm about everything we see, and we can't arbitrary name what we see. It might be a language thing, but I don't get where this thing came from.

Squirrels are opportunistic feeders, they eat pretty much everything they can, tiny seeds or baby birds - it's all food to them. And they are fairly heavy so they could destroy a chileplant just by investigating it... tasting the fruit witch might not be hot if it isn't ripe enough (food!) and...

I copied the URL for the pic (http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4078/4822128490_e819bc7690_b.jpg) and then clicked on the "Insert image" button. (The one that looks like a Polaroid) It should look like this in the edit box.

I have four Leonurus sibiricus going and I'm going to transplant them from pots to my raised bed as they are supposed to be perennials here. (Siberian motherwort). I'm not to sure about the use of these because the swedish name translates to "Siberian heartstop". Perfectly legal though, but some...
