Yep - I've got one plant I picked up since I had a late start from seeds this year and figured at least I'd get some habaneros that way and it looks the same as well --- Sure would be nice if they would label them as such ie. "Spartacus Habanero" rather than just selling them as "Habanero" so...

Alternatively you could use a compost heap to heat the underground area   http://www.uvm.edu/sustain/clean-energy-fund/cef-projects/compost-power-using-compost-power-to-heat-a-greenhouse   https://vimeo.com/57554224

  No problem was just letting you know why many will suggest buying from a reputable site rather than finding other members that have 1 or 2 varieties you want ( since also many members do not bother with isolating their plants so can't always ensure they have not crossed (though those can be...

  Thing is in getting them from members here it will probably wind up costing you just as much or more than just ordering them and getting all of the ones you want -- Figure most members are going to at least want you to send a SASE with the return postage (which is only fair as they shouldn't...

  Thanks for the info -- I have one of the 300W LEDs ordered already ( though it's a no name brand but says it's using the epistar 5W leds so I'll have to see when it gets here but for the $41 after an Ebay $15 coupon on a $50 purchase figured it was worth seeing ) and was trying to decide what...

As mentioned the Chinense Peppers take awhile to get going -- They sometimes seem to just sit there and do nothing for weeks and then suddenly you'll start to see them take off. Not sure what type of weather you are in but here they seem to shut down for awhile during the summer months as the...

  True - but you did not mention that in your original post -- only said you did not get what you ordered and also did not say it was only when they podded up that you discovered the problem. Since you just posted today figured you had just recently received the order and found it did not have...

They are probably taking a break/vacation -- figure they stop shipping live plants mid June so all orders for the year have already been shipped and as geeme mentioned they do have you fill out what to do if they are out of a specific plant to fill your order so may have made a substitution if...

Nice setup -- was looking into getting one of those smaller tents for this winter and for getting an early start for next year  - Is the one fixture enough for that size grow tent or are you using other fixtures as well ?

  You have nothing to lose by trying --- If you leave it where it is it's gonna die ( remember clay mixed with sand and water makes cement -- and plants don't grow well in cement !! ) - pull it out of the pot remove what you can of the soil and thoroughly soak in a bucket of water to free the...

If you want a decent variety to get started with check Old Salty's fundraiser that Shorerider is running ( http://thehotpepper.com/topic/60766-oldsaltys-fundraising-auction/page-2#entry1331659 )  - there is a set of 30 packs of seeds up for auction with no bid so far so might be a good way to...

That's just part of the plant lifecycle -- oldest leaves will die off and new growth will replace it - figure as the plant grows taller and has more of a canopy less light penetrates to the bottom portion of the plant so those lowest leaves have a harder time getting enough light and eventually...

  Pics would help - as it is hard to picture how it could be still growing new flowers if not growing new nodes which would also mean new leaves -- usually the new flower nodes appear at the joints of new leaf growth so not sure what you mean by still growing flowers but not leaves.

  Yeah they're actually enjoying the 100+ degree weather (much more than my pepper plants !) - THe Ichibans are really starting to pod up now with more flowers popping all the time - almost time to pull the first ones this season and between the 3 plants should have more than enough for the rest...

My Casper eggplants are finally starting to grow a bit (got a late start from seed this year so they haven't caught up to the Ichiban eggplant starts I got at lowes but they are starting to look decent now !          2 Casper plants from seed     And the 3 Ichiban plants from Lowes :  

  There is a link in his signature line of every post he makes - that links to his website for ordering !

  Therein lies the problem --- on EBAY you only have a short window in which to leave feedback about a purchase so a seed vendor even if selling fake seeds tend to stay near 100% positive feedback as long as he ships some seeds quickly -- since the seeds will not be grown immediately and even if...

Yep with temps above 100 you're gonna have a lot of flowers drop on the Chinense's - main thing to do is just keep them in good shape so that when a break in the weather happens they are ready and healthy.

  Yeah as he mentioned the 20% off code is mainly in store (online it will not allow you to use it on sale items ) - when you go to a store depending on the cashier they will sometimes let you use both even though I don't think they are suppose to. Not being able to use both and adding the $100...

  Notice the $199.99 with coupon -- you have to put in the coupon code and then the price will change from the $319 to the $199 price !
