So nice space you got there! Love the pictures

It changes daily, but some of my favorites eaten fresh are Oxkutzcabian Orange, Sugar Rush Peach / Peppapeach, different scotch bonnets, Cumari do Para, Fatalii, Bhut Jolokia White, Yellow Naga (Drax) and many others I love sweet/tropical/fruity c.chinense without any chemical/bitterness. All...

In the last few years, I have grown around 100+ varieties every season, searching for the best flavors. And for me, the Oxkutzcabian Orange is in my top 10 list :). Absolutely fantastic flavor, that sort of reminds me more of sugar rush peach than an orange habanero. And a very productive plant...

I haven't seen anything quite like this, but I have experienced sterile plants before. This season I had a fantastic Carboruga Yellow plant, that just grew MASSIVE. Perfect looking plant, FULL of flowers, but not a single fruit ever took. I tried everything with this plant, but in the end I...

Its interesting that so many of you describe the baccatum flavor as soapy. Im not a big fan of baccatums, because to me they taste "grassy". I wonder if that is the same flavor you are talking about, but experienced differently by my tastebuds. SRP / Peppapeach and Aji fantasy white are the...

This is the strangest statement ever! Im not a big fan of the flavor of baccatum, but god damn the sugar rush peach (and peppapeach) is an exception. Probably one of the best tasting peppers out there if you ask me! I haven't even thought of drying them, since they taste so good fresh

I once read that when breeding plants for cold climates, you could sometimes use plants that have adopted to a very hot climate. That the genes are not specific to either hot or cold, but are good genes for coping with "extreme" temperatures in general. In my experience small/dwarf annuum...

I would definitely go for green new branches! There are two different approaches that I use for clones. One is to take a lot of clones and just put in a cup of water. Usually a few will make roots. (Im guessing 1/4 or something, but there are probably lots of factors) The other approach is to...

Here are my two first crosses ever <3 To the left early c.annuum x aji mochero To the right: early c.annuum x scotch bonnet

Hi Forestman, I have never measured the PPM. I have found peppers to be very forgiving, and seems to thrive with both half and double the recommended dose of nutrients. I usually start with half and work my way up to the recommended dose, and then maybe go above when the plant is big and full...

Ah Pimenta Moranga! I had totally forgotten about that variety. That was one of the first plants I ever grew (!) a really beautiful plant. I got the seeds from Jes in Denmark about 10 years ago. Jes is also the guy behind the Pimenta Moranga Peach cross (or so it says on whitehotpeppers.com )...

It definitely looks like edema! I often struggle with it in my grow tent. Air circulation and lower humidity help a lot

Here is a little update on my breeding project. Already some flowers developing:

They taste very lemon citrusy, and tropical with some scotch bonnet funk in the background. Personally, I think a MOA is better overall, but the Lemon Starrburs is the best lemon / citrusy pepper I have tasted. It's wonderful with fish and in alcohol drink etc.

I love following your projects here on the forum!

Very interesting! You will find some people here that have a lot of knowledge about wild peppers, and I would also recommend: Wild Capsicum Community https://www.facebook.com/groups/396237223854537

VERY interesting project! I'm following this one, and wish you all the best of luck. I hope you keep us updated! I'm sorry I can't give you any good advice since I'm way out of my depths here.

That's very interesting! Welcome onboard

My plant is getting HUGE! I will upload some pictures soon. I finally found some information about it on the Semilla La Palma website: "We first thought it may be a hybrid and named it Reaper X. Meanwhile we see that the variety is stable from the beginning, so most probably a mutant. (Equis =...

Hi! So nice to hear that you having a great start this season! I haven't grown the orange thai, but from what I read online they are supposed to go from green to orange. No red in between. And I can't recall growing a pepper that went from red to orange, it's usually always the other way around...
