Have Trini Douglah seeds from last year's crop. PM if interested.

Hey Capitone, thanks for the bump. You indeed have a first class bunch of peppers growing this year! It’s kind of neat to see some of last years plants “progeny” growing. Glad they are working out for you. I agree with your observation on the Fatalli’s. I had several yellows last year and...

Nice looking bunch of plants Matt. Good luck this year. I have about 75 potted up and counting so far. I have some in the square pots but lately I’ve just been using 5oz. plastic “Dixie” cups that are $1.69 per 80 at Wally’s. I’ll move them to 16oz. later if necessary. I started using...

Just read pinned post #1 in the Lounge. O.K. I get it!! Why did I ever waste my time this morning!!

Fair enough AJ, I respect that. I was not interested in your politics, simply your perspective on the matter since you felt the need to “type a very long response to this thread”. So I have a better understanding, based on your post #13 and followed by #16, the administrators of THP have...

This is a very volatile topic being discussed here. A recession affects people at the micro level because it impacts their jobs, personal wealth, and financial future. However; the problems arose at the macro level well beyond the control of the individual. Assigning blame to the causes is...

After reading much of the material on this forum, I’ve taken the plunge and started my first ever pepper mash today with some leftover frozen yellow habs. and fataliis. The details: Vessel: One quart canning jar, airlock attached to canning lid. Boiled (sterilized) for 20 minutes. Receipe: 16...

Been reading the numerous mash threads on this forum with curiosity. I have a simple question to ask: Why mash sauce making vs. non-mash method? The process seems much more involved. Is it taste, storage capabilities/safety, capability of using less vinegar in the finished sauce? I’m just...

Excellent setup and a nice grow list. Like the space blanket idea (I like inexpensive), guess I going shopping at Wally’s soon. Good luck to you this season! I have a similar setup; sch. 40, T – 8 fluros, etc. I like the PVC setup as I can expand as the need arise. Everything is simply press...

Jamaican Hot Chocolate (aka Choc. Hab.), Fatalii, Bhut Jolokia, Scotch Bonnet TFM in that order. Personal experience form peppers raised in my garden only. Trinidad Douglah was so “freaking” hot I couldn’t even tell you what it tasted like!

If you add carrots to your sauce, it will turn that color obviously. I save carrots for straight red pepper sauce or tomato based sauce. If your sauce is to “citrusy”, try adding a little honey to counter act the acidity. Add a little and taste. I often add a little sweetener to my sauce to...

Ah, Suttons Bay Trading Company! Excellent purveyors of spices and herbs, etc. Really like their smoked hot paprika and seafood seasoning.

+1 on Xanthum Gum. Check out hot sauce labels; many if not most have it listed as an ingredient. Got mine at a local health food store, 6 oz. for $13.00. I use 1/8 teaspoon per pot (pot = appx. 6 half pint jars) to obtain the desired consistency. I fooled around with corn starch for a year...

Made a batch of raspberry-habanero jelly for the holiday that was a little on the thick side. Used too much pectin evidently. I just nuked it in the microwave in 5 second intervals until the right consistency. I agree with Salsalady ^ that measurements need to be exact, slight variances came...

Congratulations AJ! That was a well earned victory and an entertaining game. That DT Fairley kid is a beast. Having waited since 1957 for a national championship, you have earned the right to gloat “ad nausem” until next season. Guess I was pulling for Auburn because their uniforms are much...

PM sent

PM sent. Let me know if you did not receive. Sometimes not so sure on my forum posting abilities!

Yes indeed, two thumbs up to chileaddict's comments. I stand corrected; "upon further review", I only received tomato seeds from tomatogrowers. Reiterating from ^, I do not have garden space for experimentation. Already there are too many plants for to little space.

I do not know if there is such a thing as the “perfect” hot sauce, everyone has different tastes and heat tolerances. What I make for myself vs. that to be given away often are entirely different. That said, yes you need a blender. Also, a reasonably fine wire mesh strainer, a couple of large...

I have S. B. TFM seeds graciously supplied by cmpman1974 last year. I have some seeds to spare. PM me if your still interested. They do look like the picture you posted. They were OP.
