    Please ID this Pepper

    This came from 9greenbox.com and they claimed it was Bhut Jolokia. All the rest of the Bhut seeds they sent me have turned into Caribbean Reds. This one looks different though, it's definitely longer than the other plants. Any Ideas?

    First SB's

    Thanks guys, my Girlfriend's Mom works for a non-profit in florida. Some of her coworkers are Jamaican and they gave me a couple peppers last year. This pepper is an offspring of those so I'm not really sure of their exact strain, but they are definitely SB's. We'll call them "Nice Jamaican...

    The hatch chile festival is definitely on my list of must-do's before I get put in the ground.

    Trying to find our common denominator

    If you ever get the chance to try some, you won't be sorry! It's a vinegar based BBQ very specific to that area, very different from KC or Memphis, but very good. They do have a BBQ festival every year, not sure when, I'll have to check, it's good year round though.

    Trying to find our common denominator

    It's so important to have things passed down to the next generations! My Grandmother lived with us when I was in highschool and I learned all of her delicious Italian recipes. Thanks for all the great responses, very fun to find out your introduction to heat!

    Trying to find our common denominator

    I'm looking for the reason why some people are attracted to very spicy food, and most people run in the other direction. Mine started very early in life when my Family and Grandmother would go to ChiChi's mexican restaurant. They would load us up with chips and salsa, and my Grandmother would...

    Rootone or Bontone

    I've used these rooting powders before and they work well on ornamental stuff, but I've heard that using rooting powder on edible plants will have bad consequences if consumed. I don't want my unborn children to grow 6 heads or anything like that, although that would come in handy in certain...

    Pepper I.D.

    Whatever they are, they look great! My tobasco plant grew very well and produced a huge load of peppers, they were HOT too, way hotter than a tobasco sauce.

    Pepper I.D.

    I grew a tobasco pepper plant last year, I would bet a decent amount of $$ that is what it is.

    Hello pepper freaks!

    Hello pepper freaks!

    I'm Tim, I live in northern Virginia. I've been growing peppers for a few years now, ranging from Jaleps to thai chiles to Jamaican Sb's. The majority of my stink bug scratched crop last year was orange habs and tobasco chiles. I make a few large jars of hot sauce a year that lasts me through...
