    Potawie's summer of 09 porn

    The clone looks like it has larger leaves than mama. Does it have larger pods too? I notice my 2nd year plants tend to get smaller - probably due to how far they've noded away from the main stem (?)

    YAMP - Yet Another Mystery Pepper

    Do any of these imposters have a nutty, almost pecan-like aftertaste? Or is that from the BST. Seemed stronger in the non-purple plant though.

    YAMP - Yet Another Mystery Pepper

    I was thinking along those lines too. Part of me wants to breed it to see what the F2s look like. The other part of me wants a lot less work next season. ;)

    AJs 2009 Concentrate/Puree 07-19-09

    :shocked: My most productive plants were started Jan 2 (lemon drops) and Jan 18 (red hab). The later ones Feb 14+ (long choc habs, etc) are impressive looking specimens but didn't get a full fruit set before the weather turned to scorching. Fall harvest might show the opposite results. The...

    Computer Woes

    "Spaces"? Is that like where you can have, say, 4 desktops that you switch between? I've used that in Linux and Solaris but I didn't know the newer OSX could do it. Cool. Me want MacBook! I also want to win the lottery. Opera kinda sucked when I first tried it. Then I put Opera Mini on my...

    YAMP - Yet Another Mystery Pepper

    Planted some black scorpion tongues I got for free. They started with purple baby leaves (which turned green) except for 1 plant. The same plant also never developed purple pods - they were green until they started ripening. I've got enough of them now to see a different pod shape on most pods...

    AJs 2009 Concentrate/Puree 07-19-09

    Jimminy Christmas! SO why are you getting so many peppers earlier this year? Did you start them earlier or are they just producing better for you because....? I have to assume you have more plants too? I already have 3 jars of Puree and 1 marmalade in the cabinet, several bags of peppers in the...

    Computer Woes

    RE: 2 browser tabs Usually you can right click (or Apple-click) a link and choose 'open in new tab', or window, or in background. Control-T gets me a new tab.. might be some other button on Mac. I'm using Opera right now. YMMV with Mozilla etc. I feel your pain though. I switched to an iBook...

    food The Drunken Chef

    Psssst! Put the Mac mouse (or mouespad) away. Plug in a USB mouse with 2 buttons and right click will work. re: orange grease That's the stuff to flavor the refried beans with. I don't like beans either, but I'm told it works wonders.

    food Mmmmmm...poppers!

    I have a simple and fast popper procedure. First, whenever I brown some ground beef for taco making or pasta sauce or whatever, I save some in a ziploc in the fridge (or freezer). Then when it's popper time, I mix some of the beef with salsa and maybe a bit of cheese, stuff into the pepper skins...

    Making Concentrate

    I like to experiment with the different vinegars in the concentrate. I made my lemon drops with lemon juice - no vinegar and extra sugar to offset the bitterness. Orange hab got made with apple cider vinegar (5%). And the latest red habs got the red wine vinegar treatment (5%) - I think this is...

    baccatum Baccatum's (2 peppers per node?)

    I have some nodes like that on my bacs. When I look close it's usually that there are 2 nodes real close together, but sometimes not.

    Silver Surfer's 7-15-09 Pickin's

    Nothing soothes the burn quite like some straight up Jack. Makes for an interesting morning after, too. :hell: So, those pods destined for powder?

    First Ripe Bhut Jolokia of 2009

    Bwaahahaha! I always reserve the hottest part of a pepper for the 'macho man' in the group. People are starting wise up to me though. I'm running out of idiots around here - and I don't even have any super hots yet. Don't worry about getting fired, you have plenty of witnesses. :rolleyes:

    Patrick's Grow Log

    I know 2 of my pods are FINALLY starting to ripen on my biggest plant. I also know there's an awesome thread around here somewhere with a pic of BC poppers that I must try to replicate as soon as possible.

    Me too. I have a couple up to my shoulders, but that's including the containers, not in the ground.

    Gotta love the mutants. I have a mutant aji limon (bac) pod that I picked this morning... pictures sometime soon.

    greenhouse Guru's Greenhouse 2009

    So... you're 4'6" tall? Not that there's anything wrong with that. ;) Quite well. I'm up to my eyeballs in lemon drops and habaneros - made some concentrate from them. I'm gonna start freezing them soon so I have enough fully ripe ones for the next batch. I might have one heck of a fall...

    Grafting A Multi-Pepper Plant?

    How about a pepper/tomato plant? Jalapeno and romas for salsa anyone?
