    Jolokia Experts

    I don't know it could be the grow conditions... Take a look at this picture, All seeds came from the same pack (could have been a mixed pack) all the peppers had the same heat level, more or less, and they all had the same flavor. The only difference was the quality of soil they were planted...

    I had to vote 'b' just in case the ingredient might be bacon.

    Potting Up and Potting Out

    I go from the 72 cell tray to a 12 or 16 oz party cups. Then I go into 8" pots before going into 5 gallon buckets or ground. I repot so many times to save as much space as I can under my grow lights. I get over excited and plant too early so that is another reason I pot up so many times. If...

    seeds seedling with no leaves

    I would just let it go and see what happens. What does it hurt. It dies or it grows and all it costs you is a bit of water and some light.

    Attention Bacoholics

    I might give this a try. If I do I will stray pretty far away from the actual recipe. I don't really like coffee so I will need to find some alternative. It seems like coffee is one of the major flavors though.

    breeding Cross polination and Growing in Containers

    All plants will do fine in containers from my knowledge. That is if they are properly taken care of (not over or under watered, enough room to grow, good soil, enough nutes). That said mine seem to flourish more planted in the ground. As for cross pollination. Since so many species of chili...

    Chiles are about Heat and Taste...but let's just talk HEAT.

    For me it probably goes Douglah, Brain Strain, Scorp, Bhut Jolokia, Yellow 7 But once you get to a certain level of heat it is hard to tell the difference.

    seeds Seedling question - Nutrient

    Chili Focus is a real mild nute. I used it this year and I am not sure how much it helped. I do not think I will be using next year. But I agree with bigt, I wouldn't use anything on seedlings especially if there is anything in the medium that you are using. Wait for them to grow up a bit.

    This is what I wish I would be having today. But it will just be the normal turkey and sides. A guy can dream can't he?

    Deep Fried Turkey

    I think rubs and marinades are a bad idea for deep fried turkeys. Other than salt which is a rock, they just burn. IMO brine and injections are the way to go.

    The Dynamic world of the British CURRY.

    I think many of the larger cities in the US are starting to take on a foodie nature over the last 10 years or so. I live in Pittsburgh PA and even here, being a smaller Metropolitan, we are starting to see many ethic restaurants around the city. I have been to a few Indian restaurants in the...

    pests Cold Weather Kill Aphids?

    They are just bhuts. They are all I grew this year and I have a bunch of seeds for next year. It is more just for the experience of overwintering the plant. I guess aphids are just part of what comes with overwintering. I was expecting them but it has been a while since I brought them in and...

    pests Cold Weather Kill Aphids?

    Will try the hose then soap. Hope it works. I decided to also cut them back some more. I had left them fairly large to begin with.

    pests Cold Weather Kill Aphids?

    So, I overwintered some plants, and that led to aphids. My question is if I were to take the plants back out side in the cold weather for a day or two would that be enough to kill the aphids? I wasn't paying enough attention to the plants the last few days and the aphids are now some what out...

    Buffalo Wild Wings Blazin' Challenge

    Don't get me wrong. They have good sauces. The Louisiana Lickers are one of my favorite wings that I have had anywhere, but no heat. The Buckeye BBQ are a nice middle ground heat with a good BBQ flavor. I get the half split bucket of those two nearly every time I go. I am just not a big fan...
