    Slug's 2017 Ghetto Grow Log.

      Yep.  It's part of a self-watering double-bucket reservoir system I made out of 2-gallon frosting containers I got from local bakeries.  Similar to this: By the time the plants are the size of mine, they have grown roots throughout the soil and also have a healthy root system down through the...

    Slug's 2017 Ghetto Grow Log.

    Just wanted to post some pics and thank some people for helping me get back on my feet in the growing sense after a really bad year.  Someone mistakenly threw out almost my entire seed stock as they were trying to help around my place when I was in hospital last year.  RalphTheChilihead and...

    my first pod of the 2017 season

    Whenever the first pod shows up on any of my plants, I'm all :woohoo:  I can have a dozen pods on multiple other plants, but any plant producing its first pod of the season is just instant happy.

    Hallo from Denmark

    Welcome.  I had a friend from Denmark in college.  I knew people couldn't pronounce his surname, so I told people he was "Mr. Denmark" and said the country was named after his ancestors.  Asked them to keep it quiet because he had come to the USA to experience life as a normal person.  I...

    Sucking up all the nutrients and being generally unproductive?  That's not a plant, that's a teenager.

    What pods can you buy at your local markets?

    Asian market has Thai chiles and a few other Asian favorites in every way you can imagine.  Regular grocery has habs of various sort as their hottest, but they at least import the good ones from Yucatan region because they've figured out there are a ton of Mexicans here who will clean them out...

    My unidentified rejected produce.

      I hear that.  I'm about to burn every ounce of my personal leave next month on surgery/recovery of a different sort, but my job is working with me through temp disability and then work from home, etc.  Best of luck.  :)

    My unidentified rejected produce.

    You going to get surgery for your hernia?  Maybe after they slap a fix-a-flat in your gut and you heal, the doctor will let you start eating the hot stuff again?

    Long term effects of super hots?

      Beware!  Excess superhot consumption has warped my entire reality into the music video for Carpenter Brut's Turbo Killer.   (The only long term effect of superhot consumption is your family and friends never again trusting your judgement with regard to how hot something is. :D)

    pests advice on heat and aphids

      Aphids are buttholes and yes, they spawn like mad when it is warm and humid.  Do the dish soap treatment one evening for an immediate, temporary fix.  After the sun goes down, grab a spray bottle.  Mix water and dish detergent, soak all the leaves really well, especially the undersides.  Go...

    post rain woes

    They'll be okay.  Half of my plants lost ALL of their leaves this year because all the rain hit at the same time as transplant shock from potting them up.  You can pinch blooms for a bit if you want to encourage them to grow, but it isn't necessary.  I'll try to snag some pics tomorrow of the...

    New to pepper growing!!

      Sounds about right.  Welcome to the club.  :D     :shocked:  Lies and slander!  You are no longer welcome here.  I wasn't even on the isles when it happened!  I'll have you know I already had these Thai chiles in my grow, and furthermore...um...   You had 200 freaking plants.  Who the hell...

    Nice Peter.  Every time I see videos like this I am so very thankful I don't get hiccups from superhots.  That looks like misery on top of misery.

    Daily pepper consumption

    On an average day I usually go through 4+ fresh superhots.  Sometimes I eat them whole with lunch/dinner, other times they end up diced and cooked on/in whatever I am eating.  On the days I take a break from superhots, I am generally gobbling up hot or mild varieties like snack food.  I love...
