So anyways, here is a pic of what some of these plants will be going into this year, as well as some seedlings I will buy from nurseries. I work part time as a forklift driver and had been eying up these old vegetable transport bins laying around at work for a good year or so. Managed to score...

Cheers guys. Thanks for the advice tony05, I haven't grown the Rocoto before but I am very keen to see how it goes. I never imagined they could reach 7 feet?!?! Thats awesome. I heard they can handle some pretty cold temperatures and will be able to survive the winter here in NZ so I am hoping...

White and Orange Hab. Bird Chili that was started earlier than the others, with a younger mate! Another shot of the Bird Chili. Is starting to get quite bushy due to a bit of pinching I have been doing. And a Scotch Bonnet which was also started early and has had the top pinched I am...

Hey everyone, it has been a while since I have been on here, the first of September was the official first day of spring here in NZ. Last year was my first season growing chilis and I enjoyed it so much I decided to get an early start during winter. I Brought some seeds online and got them...

Thanks for your advice imaguitargod and wordwiz!

smoking certinally is an expensive "habbit" isn't it!? over here in NZ 30grams of rolling tobacco costs around $20.. and a pack of 20 tailor mades costs around $13.... I'm not sure how that works out money wise in other parts of the world but yeah.. wordwiz - yeah I have heard that home grow...

Greetings everyone. Has anyone grown tobacco before?? If so, has anyone got any advice or "secret" methods?? I'm sick of paying soo much $$$ for tobacco and am becoming increasingly paranoid at what the bastards at tobacco companies put in their products, other than tobacco!! The obvious...

haha Thanks for the invite, I would if I could, but unfortunately I can't afford to fly from NZ to USA due to being a broke ass student!!

pepperfever - peppers stuffed with ground beef, rice and cheese....... That sounds awesome!!!!!!

Hey chiliheads! Here are some pics of my second and third harvests. As with the first harvest these are small in quantity, but I'm still happy how everything has worked out. second harvest, pic was taken a few days ago.... Top row: "Wildfire", and unusually large Tabasco. Middle row: Jalapeno...

I am by no means an expert on horse turds, nor growing peppers, but my elderly neighbor grows incredible tomatoes with the aid of horse manure. The tomato plants and the consequent yield he achieves are mammoth and he swears by horse manure as the only necessary fertilizer. considering the fact...

Awesome looking garden, I would love to be able to do something like that, but unfortunately there are certain limitations when renting property! nice work, all the best!

Oh true, they are larger than usual then. They are 5-6cm long, which is about 2- 2,4 inch. Interesting!

Hey everyone. I'm not sure exactly what type of Tabasco plant I have as I purchased it as a seedling from a nursery. The label on it simply says "Tabasco chili".. The picture I took may be deceptive too, due to the fact that the jalapenos I grew were quite small compared to the size that I...

Cheers all. Another small harvest on the way sometime in the next few days

Hey all, here is a pic of my first ever "official" harvest as a newbie. This harvest is tiny in comparison to many of you crazy chiliheads, but we all have to start somewhere! Top left and in the baggie are a whole bunch of Super Chili, Top right are Sweet Banana. Middle left are jalapeno...

BUMP! :rolleyes:Sorry if I annoy anyone by bumping my thread back up but I'm still wondering what this so called "Wildfire" plant really is???:?::?:

so can nobody ID the "wildfire" plant??

cheers guys

haha I knew someone would say that! I harvested them a bit early to allow others to grow. The sweet banana plant had three massive fruit on it which were preventing any others from growing, due to the size of the bucket it is growing in. You are very much correct though mate!
