    breeding Pepper crossing question

    Just curious, on this first F1 generation of the pepper I crossed last year, I got many plants that look different than either of the 2 peppers crossed from last year (different shape. different color, different heat... which is what i expected), but this generation looks similar to each other...

    breeding Pepper crossing question

    Btw I have 2 'not-hot' pepper varieties (imagine Trinidad-Perfume/Aji Dulce/etc type peppers), both are yellow that I crossed last year and the 1 resulting F1 plant I got this year from them is also not-hot and yellow (although a different shape). I wonder for next year's F2 generation, what are...

    breeding Pepper crossing question

    Hey @CaneDog... May have a followup question... so if 'NG' means "Normal Germination" and 'HF' is "Highly Fertile"... I guess 'NG' is like 90-100% of the seeds will probably germinate normally. and what is 'HF' considered, like 75-90% normal germination? and 'PF' is pretend 0%-75%? Just...

    breeding Pepper crossing question

    Hey all, I wanted to get into pepper crossing this year. I kinda did last year but didn't emasculate the receiving flowers at all, so left it up to chance to see if they would pollinate by brushing the flower I wanted to use as my 'male' and then putting a very small seed ziplock plastic around...

    pests netting for peppers to protect against things eating pods

    I have bird netting, I wasnt sure if that was too large for them to poke through the squares. I'll try it out unless anyone else has another suggestion for finer mesh.

    pests netting for peppers to protect against things eating pods

    Hey all, any product suggestions for mesh/netting (or any other products?) that works for protecting pods from getting eaten? Any links to click on and buy are welcome :), esp amazon. My Grenada Seasoning peppers are prized among my family and something been eating the forming pods. I guess can...

    wanted Looking for Aji Chaparita

    Just wanted to add, Aji Charapiita is one of my favs. I also like Wild Brazil as well in the 'small' hot pepper category which has very-hot lingering habanero heat... while Aji Charapita is a very 'fast' heat. Like I can put 10 Charapita's in a sandwich and enjoy it; while i could only handle 1...

    wanted wanted: Grenada Seasoning plants for sale (and/or Aji Dulce#2's)

    Hey all, I was a little late ordering plants this year and forgot to get Grenada Seasoning (I have seeds of G.S. but would prefer just to get a large plant from a greenhouse grower :) ). Anyone have extra plants to sell? Note: I found one online seller for Grenada, but the shipping is a bit...

    Bahamian Goat Pepper

    Hey @GA Growhead, Did these white-bullet/goat hybrids come out true this year? I just tried the original hab form today, really delicious so curious how the smaller (and probably more prolific?) bullet form turned out for you.

    Some non-superhot hybrids if anyone wants to try out

    Some of my favorite hybrids are these two... One is stabilized. One isn't but hoping it becomes stable 3rd year.    The one thats stabilized was supposed to be 'Pitanga Cafe' from the user AjiJoe here (great user here). It came to me hybridized though. It seems to be a hardy plant (was the last...

    25 lbs of tomatoes a week?

    Brandywine i thought is supposed to be a great tasting tomato but not productive.   If sticking with Heirlooms...   My favorites in terms of taste are the black/russian tomatoes. Black Tula and Paul Robeson are always dependable and didnt really crack/deform/'catface' on me past few years...

    illWill, i wanted to make sure myself... I ordered a box of CARDIs here last year and I thought CARDIs were way hotter (same shape though). Maybe they are a hybrid, but not sure.

    chinense trinidad scorpion flavor

    I love the Yellow Trinidad Scorpions I have growing. I bought them as Yellow Brain Strains but obviously they were not and the seed seller said they noticed a few T.S. growing in the field and might be that. Anyway I can't really down a Ghost pepper or even some of the hotter trinidad Ones I...
