Nice pics! The chili will ripen to a deep red. Last summer, I received some seeds from a THP friend in Mexico. I had asked him to send me some seeds from a variety of Pequins (one of my favorites). He labeled the seeds from the part of the country from which they originated, and these were...

I accepted a new gig on Friday. I'll be heading out to southern New Mexico later this week. Thanks again for the cherry tomatoes. They were awesome. What kinds were they?

Patrick, I'm not sure they are pepper plants. Look tall enough to be CORN. And if you want to pollinate them, then don't detassel em.

They look stressed to me. How hot is it there?

You're welcome. Now I know what it feels like to send your kids away to summer camp. :cry:

I'm also an orchid fanatic. I've been raising them from flasks lately.

Welcome from central, CA!

Plants produce hormones, which controls which stage it's in,ie, root growth, vegetative stage, flower production, fruit/seed production, etc. Your plant is producing flowers. If you transplant it into a bigger container, you MAY confuse it. It MIGHT switch off of flowering mode, and return to...

WHAT!!???!! Dude, you are my hero. My brainstrain is my pride and joy. I, for one, greatly appreciate your generosity...a million thanks! I hope you keep your mother plant going.

Timing is everything. Best time to ask is when people are harvesting. If you wait a few months, I think you'll be amazed by how generous everyone is. I'm growing 2 strains of 7Pots, and with a little luck, I'd be happy to send you some seeds. If you want them NOW, then definitely, go with...

As always, I love this site, and all of the input received. Always entertaining and informative at the same time. I have a small (5x8) cargo trailer, and a small 4x4 for hauling, but the trailer will be packed full when I leave. As many longer term members know, I travel with my orchid...

Yes, it's true. It's like going through customs/border crossing, both at the same time. The longer I'm in the bankrupt, fascist state of California, the more I think I'm living in Mexico, and it's not because of all of the Mexicans either. (Not to get political, but aside from the local drug...

Sorry, my mailbox is full. I can't figure out how to save them with the new website setup. I'll PM you when I get it figured out. THP, any instructions?

Heck, it was hard enough sneaking them in! But that was when they were lil babies.

Long story short: I moved to Tulare, CA for a job 3 months ago, and brought my pepper seedlings with me. I work as a travel nurse, and was working a temp to permanent position(management). I could not come to terms with the hospital and my contract is up this week. I have an incredible pepper...

Hoping for more updates. Just curious, what kind of fertizers do you use throughout the season, and do you use a drip system or another watering system?

I think they're called flowers.

FWIW, My Brainstrain plants are simply the best looking, strongest plants I have. Their genetics are unique.
