Thanks for the compliment and the well wishes. As usual, very nice picture Chris. Have you taste tested a pod yet? If so, what were your thoughts?

I haven't had the pleasure of growing the brown one but maybe it will crop up in future generations. Thank you very much. I just hope everyone stays safe and there isn't too much damage. Don't get me wrong, I am still going to complain up to, during, and following Irene. I do however...

Harvested a few more pods. It is supposed to rain tomorrow right on through Sunday when Irene should be here. I figured I would pull more pods off before the plants are destroyed. I also pulled several sweet varieties not pictured.

Very impressive and those youngsters look great as well.

SS I still have to try the Douglah cross. I keep putting it off. I am not looking forward to the presumed stomach discomfort that will follow. I am going to have to suck it up and make it happen.

I am sad to report that I disliked the CGN 21500. I apologize for not being able to elaborate but I don't exactly have a refined palette. There is just something about them I do not like. Don't let that discourage you though. Hopefully Chris or Mike can chime in with their thoughts. A lot...

Makes sense. My father is a maintenance man and we always do our own construction, plumbing, electrical, etc. Neither of us have had any formal training so when I see someone doing work it catches my interest. Always looking to learn something that I will eventually have to apply. Especially...

Thanks. I actually have not tried them yet. This is the first time growing this variety and I wasn't sure when the pods were ripe. I will report back when I process them tomorrow evening for the dehydrator.

Very entertaining. Don't feel bad for not finishing it. That pod was huge. Also, take into consideration that the videos by some of our crazy members can be a bit misleading. Eating whole pods is intense. I generally stick to the 1/4 pod rule for anything beyond the Thai varieties. I slice...

Could it have been about pruning tomatoes? Here are two examples... #1 #2

Nice harvest and healthy looking garden. If you need any yellow Fatalii for next season let me know. I have one isolated pod.

Sorry I can help you on an estimated time but the plant does look very nice.

I don't know how I missed this thread but as everyone else has pointed out the plants look great. Dripping with flowers. Nice job.

Very nice pods. Those Barrackpores are purdy.

Nice haul. Any immediate plans for them? Most of mine end up in either the dehydrator or the freezer. I would like to try my hand at hot sauce but my first two attempts back in '08 and '09 were flops. The first one was too vinegary for me and the second way too hot. I used Douglahs.

Here is a shot of a pretty good harvest. I lost about 1/3 of a plastic grocery bag to bugs and cracking. I still have to pick my Thai Super Hot, Thai Orange, Super Chili, Antillais Caribbean, and Goat Cross. I just figured I better put that off until I can free up room in the dehydrator...

Thanks. Sorry to hear about your troubles with isolating. It can be a bit frustrating. I imagine even more so for you since you pick off all opened buds before covering the entire plant. The larger bags helped me bud I still had a couple that didn't set due to the temps. I think I have at...

Wow! I am really jealous. That is going to be an incredible grow building. It looks like you are having fun with that old structure (sarcasm). Working on things that are out of square and not level can be a bit frustrating huh? I was curious about a couple things though. Why did you frame...

Nice haul. What are your plans for the eggplant.

Sorry I have no helpful information, but I am sorry to see you are experiencing bug damage. I know it is part of gardening but it can be very frustrating when you do everything right and have all that ruined by something out of your control. Good luck in getting rid of them.
