    Cheap nursery pots?

    This is where I get mine, along with bales Pro-Mix BX, large bags of perlite and vermiculite, and seedling nursery pots and trays. They are a great company with very reasonable prices, good customer service, and fast shipping. You can get 45 7 gallon pots (a little over 6 gallon actual...

    Cops at front door

    Armac, I'm not saying that at all. Anyone who has people come into his house with AKs is probably a pretty sketchy individual. I would be inclined to call the cops if I felt someone was a threat. But growing weed in and of itself doesn't make someone dangerous any more than brewing beer or...

    Cops at front door

    You seem to think that someone GROWING PLANTS causes the death of innocent babies, and I'm the one with "weird rational?" Attending a baby's funernal may be enough to impair any critical thinking skills you might have, but not mine. As for you ridiculous assumption that I do "dope" (what is...

    Chili or Chile?

    Some of us find this sort of thing interesting. I don't know where warsh comes from, but my mom used to say that too, along with crick (a small body of running water). :o

    Cops at front door

    Anecdotes playing on people's emotions are the crutch of the War on Some Drugs, not logical thinking. There are plenty of anecdotes about cops busting into houses looking for drugs and firing a shot that killed an innocent person, often at the wrong address no less. The people could have just...

    Chili or Chile?

    As far as I know the current evidence is that c. annuum originated in Mexico, but the other domesticated species originated in South America and capsicum as a whole is believed to have originated in an area in Bolivia/Brazil which shows the greatest genetic diversity among wild forms. About...

    seeds Leaving Seeds in Water BFore Germ.

    I've started a ton of seeds with and without soaking, and from my experience it makes no difference for germination times or percentages. I've seen quite a few experiments that couldn't find any advantage as well. Soaking them in a peroxide solution to kill pathogens might be worthwhile though.

    Chili or Chile?

    It is Spanish origin in the sense that it came into English from Spanish, not nahuatl. It's like saying the 7 Pod "originated" in Trinidad. If you go further back all chiles are from South America from an area in Brazil and surrounding countries, but it's common to say that 7 Pods originated...

    What to grow up north?

    You can grow any of the 5 domesticated species except pubescens quite easily in zone 5B with a decent head start. I'm also in zone 5B and for me bird types, chinenses, and baccatums are the easiest to grow and the best producers. Annums don't generally do as well except for serranos. Serranos...

    Chili or Chile?

    I meant to say American English at the beginning of the post, I edited it. The silent h is the older and more traditional pronunciation. As far as sawr and idear go...this is what I'm talking about. http://www.bbc.co.uk...change3.shtml#A Example, listen to A Day in the Life by The Beatles...

    Scorpion Salsa

    IIRC there is hardly any scorpion in them, they used chocolate habs for most of the heat. And it really isn't that hot from what I've heard. I've had some of their salsas before and was not at all impressed, plus Dave Dewitt is affiliated with them somehow. I'll stick with Mrs Renfro's...

    Chocolate with Chipotle

    There are chocolate bars with chipotle in the grocery store now, I couldn't really taste any pepper or heat in them though. Not really my cup of tea anyway.

    Chili or Chile?

    American English is more conservative or traditional in a lot of ways, e.g. the silent h in herb, or the continued use of the old participle gotten. I believe "color" is actually the older spelling also. It came into English from the old French word "color," which came from the Latin word...

    Chiltepins?

    I agree with Williard, I think it's a myth. They germinate faster than most chinenses for me. I started pequines and chiltepines the same time as probably 20 chinense species and 4 pubescens and my very first sprout was a pequin (day 5). The chiltepines started coming up a day or two later...
