    Vato's 2010 season

    chile cora

    this is probably a long shot, but i wanted to see if anyone has heard of this chile. ive had a hard time finding information on it and so far it has been impossible to find seeds for it. i want seeds more for nostalgic reasons than anything. ive never tasted it, dont know how hot it is or...

    Tomatillos

    they usually need to be used in combination with regular tomatoes or at least in a salsa with peppers. the stickiness goes away pretty easily if you just run them under hot water. mjd- definitely get something else. i havent grown ground cherries, but as i understand it they have a much...

    Tomatillos

    thats my favorite way to eat them. just cut them in half, squeeze some lime over it with a little salt. its not something i imagine very many people would like, because its a really tangy, sort of sour taste, even without the lime. mjdtexan- if you start the seeds indoors, you have to...

    chinense Is this a Habanero Orange?

    i bought a caribbean red hab plant from burpee, and the majority of the peppers that grew on it looked like that, with a few that looked like regular orange habs but red. maybe its a strain of caribbean red?
