Merry Christmas Chris, I hope that you have a speedy recovery, keep up your hopes and Keep fighting. I'm glad you were able to update us about your treatments. Best wishes for the Holidays.   George

nice looking plant, its funny that when it threw out the choco pods that most of the pods shape were so different almost like a F2 which would show a expression of many pod shapes, but even the reaper had a lot of off phenol pods at first.

Thanks Nigel, Boy it sure sounds like Chris is having a hard time, I can only hope and pray that He will have a easy recovery when they are all done with him.   I hope this doesn't do the multiple post on me.

I don't know about India as there are so many varieties that come from India, Paraguay might have a few interesting varieties and maybe a wild one or two I'd ask them what varieties are being found at the Market and go from there.

Very interesting, I favor the last one with even the stem turning red, the pods remind me more of a annuum than C. chinense pretty cool none the less. It will be interesting to see how it is down the road about F6 or more.  

A very impeccable review as usual Nigel, :clap:  Great to have you back, I have sorely missed your reviews here. You really looked like you where in pain, had it been me, well lets just say " you are a better man than me Gunga Din." I look forward to seeing more of your reviews.

I think I will stay out of this, just way to much drama.

Hi and  big welcome to the forum here, right now things are a bit slow, but as our weather begins to warm up some so will this forum.  We have members from all over the world, so you will feel right at home. There are members who have or will be growing the Shabu Shabu also you might check with...

Hi Nigel, the Methotrexate I recognize quite well.  I sure wish I could donate stem cells and bone marrow to him, I would gladly go through it again like I did for my sister. Chemo can sure mess you up, the least little thing can cause a lot of problems and its very hard to get over it. Is he...

Has anyone heard from Chris lately? I have tried to reach him, but have not heard back from him and its been awhile ( just after he found out). I'm not on face book, so I don't know if he has been updating on what's going on. I know He's been on chemo treatments and I know just what he's been...

nice to have a fresh hot pepper around for when you need one, I'm stuck with some half dried out Brown Bhut x brown 7 pods that are a little chewy but still blazing hot. How's the weather?

The only thing pepper wise is two maybe three very rare wilds C. lanceolatum and C. tovarii I really want to get some C. flexuosum last time I checked the two vendors that had them were out so maybe a no grow this year. I'm growing the Reaper from two sources and the Brown Moruga and maybe a...

I've been meaning to replace my old heating mat that gave out on me, as I grow several hundred plants the Reptile mat would work better for me does the mat come with temp gauge and How much per foot and how much is the thermostat if it comes separate? Thanks George

Sure thing I have some C. lanceolatum seeds on the way, I'll PM you which is what I should have done in the first place. Boy I'm glad that my day is almost over, I had a crappy Day at the VA hospital. I grew some purple jalapeno's that looked a lot like that one, I didn't like the taste as it...

Nice to see pics of the plants and pods, the weather here has been odd to say the least, this week we are in the 50 & 60F, usually it tops out in the lower 40F mark at best will have storms headed our way but still no snow its just to warm. doubt we will get snow by Christmas, well we will see...

Well I went back and got caught up on all the back post, I really like the flavor of Rocoto's myself they can be a little hard at times to get them to set pods especially during hot months where Temps go over 80F. for me that means late spring and fall for pod set, I have looked for a long time...

Like its been said there are so many good and great varieties one could use, some with heat that would melt your face. I'm rather fond of the wild species they are not as hot as some, although you can use a blend of hotter varieties.  To make enough sauce for sale though, it would take a great...

Hey Hey , almost missed your glog, the past week we had 5 inches of rain and 30 and 40F temps here in Missouri, my season is all done what a crappy season we had. I got a late start and was hit with blight, nematodes, and a damn mole that found his way in to my raised beds. As my soil is very...

Nice, I've been eyeing a Sanyo which is priced at $179.00 not the best by any means, but a lot better than the dead $50. cam that now sets on a shelf.  But I really want a good laptop which might keep me from buying the new Cam.

I didn't see any ghost or 7 pods, so heat wise a lot of members here could beat him, but still 5 pounds of hot peppers a day is a lot of peppers, I'd like to see him try eating 5 pounds of ghost peppers a day, I think he would spend a lot of time on the toilet and eating lots of ice-cream if its...
