    Crazy Number of White Specs

    I grow under a red spectrum CFL and have that on a few of my plants. It happens more where the leaves are too crowded. A fan helps a lot.

    This is the bottom of my reaper plant. I think I should remove all that growth and just leave the big branches on top.

    Pod Shape vs. Flavor for growers?

    I care about the visual side a LOT! Taste is also important, but I have just started growing and tasting different varieties. With my very limited space I wouldn't grow a pepper that I don't find beautiful. There are varieties that got on my wanted list mainly because of the looks. Chocolate...

    food Kimchi

    I love kimchi! Every fall and winter is kimchi season for me. I eat it with everything and make a new batch when the previous one is gone. Kimchi on apple pie? Yes, please! Icecream with kimchi? Why not! I cut the nappa cabbage lengthwise and salt it like this. After rincing I cut it to bite...

    "Thais" are growing nicely. Around 35 pods on this plant, so I'm happy :)       This is Lemon Drop with a small graft that might not make it, I'm afraid. Carolina Reaper on the right is getting bigger and starting to bloom.         "Cyklon" got a haircut after the first harvest and is now...

I really have space for just...

    First harvest! Mmmm...The green one tasted nice too.       Cayenne in a cup is flowering. I'd be happy to get a few pods. If this works I'm totally growing a few more like this.           :)

    ​The plants are doing well. Time for an update :)     Here's my "Paprika". I think it might be Cyklon, or one of the other Polish varieties. One of the pods is completely red, so I guess I'll harvest it today or tomorrow and taste my first homegrown pepper.       The Thai pepper, which might...

    Hello Forum!   This is my first season growing peppers. I have 8 plants under 200W CFL. I plan to keep them small and maybe move some of them to the windowsil when there's more sun. I top the plants and do some training. Aesthetics matter. Here's what I got: 1. "Paprika". Seeds from a noname...
