I just read my first glog post from last year again and was embarrassed. Last year was the first year I grew peppers from seeds and learned a flipping ton from this site & this site alone, really. I had a lot of experience gardening but there were a lot of tricks to growing peppers from seeds...

...or two, or three? ...but really, not a long wish list.    Maybe someone will have pity on you (me) and hook you (me) up.    There's always that latest & greatest thing you find out about that you have to add to the list or the picture you see that makes you say, "I have to have that." My...

I made what I intended to be a shelf stable sauce, as I've done a few times before. The Woozy bottle caps I've used before had the little white waxy paper thing inside the cap. This batch of bottles I just used did not. Is that a problem? I thought the paper thing sealed it until use but could...

Left to Right: CGN 21500, Bishop's Hat, Aji Pineapple, Galapagos-Isabel Habanero, Rainforest, Yellow Fatalii, Tepin x Lemon Drop   I've been on THP for a little over a year. I can't begin to express how much I've learned, how much generosity I've benefited from, and how many connections I've...

Picked about 500 Yellow Brainstrains, Yellow Morugas, Yellow Primos & Orange Primos just now. I want to keep some but willing to part with 3 SFRBs. Let me know through PM & I'll send tonight. Paypal $14.   Thanks!   ...can't tell much- if any difference in Yellow & (what was marked) Orange Primos.

Even though I'm harvesting pods by the hundreds or thousands even, I'm still a noob. Tell me if this is common or not. Just now, I was in the garden picking some sweet peppers for dinner- Sukari, Orange Dulcetta, Sulu Adana. While I was out there, I noticed several Jay's Red Ghost Scorpions were...

Would you pickle, make a sauce or make chipotle powder? Picked today. Should've made plans ahead of time for what to do with them. If you vote for powder, I've never made chipotles. Preferred method? Thanks.

(Photo is last week's haul. Your would be pods are still on the plant waiting for you.)   Rather than pick peppers & offer the box, why don't I let you pick what you want in there. I just checked today & I'm 98% sure I have at least a few ripe pods of all of the following. PM me if you want me...

OK, I have zero- I mean ZERO experience with grills & smokers. Turn 42 tomorrow & have been one of these vegetarian people since I was 15. I know, I know, there's supposed to be something manly about grilling slabs of meat. I'm OK getting my man score reduced. I wear women's deodorant too. How...

Been out of town for the better part of 2 weeks with a couple of days at home here & there. Need to pick a wheelbarrow load of peppers today... a lot of drying/powdering, pickling, freezing & saucing in my near future.   I set aside THREE boxes identical to this that I'll sell for $14 (including...

It hasn't been my goal to go into pepper sales, but with the abundance of peppers, I don't know what else to do with them. I can also only eat so many powdered, sauced & pickled later in the year. If you miss out on these boxes, let me know & I can get something together for you. This is just a...

Today's offerings to lighten my pepper harvest & help offset the costs of peppering are listed below. Picked 30 minutes ago. Last week, I sold 3 boxes- mostly hab level heat in 10 minutes. These are hotter overall. If I get orders before 4:50 PM today, I can make the 5 PM pickup at my local post...

I came home after a 10 day trip to Spain & Morocco to a load of ripe pods. I'd like to share in the wealth for a nominal price. If I get paypal payment before 4:40 PM today, I can ship out by 5 PM today & they'll be at your house soon- Saturday maybe.   PM me if you're interested. I might be...

3 Aji Fantasies have fallen off in the past 24 hours- still very green & small. Upon inspection, all have little holes at the top. Uncool. I had another pepper a couple of weeks ago that it happened to as well. It ripened & upon dissection, I didn't see anything inside & ate the pepper. I'm sure...

The planting of the 300+ plants is a slow process especially with the heavy rains we've had. Planted 18 three weeks ago. Doing OK but leaves more yellow than they were inside. Not really yellow but were nice & dark before. I'm not worried about those. Planted about 38 more a few days ago. 6-8...

I feel like the parent of a 20 year old living in the basement... "I love you man, but you gotta go." I have 300 plants that I started too early and they've gotta get out of the house. I'm a teacher & this week has been Spring Break. A decent portion of my Spring Break has been spent moving 20...

I bought 75 lbs of a product called Chickity Doo Doo today. I saw an earlier thread about chicken manure but it mainly focused on the merits of using it & the danger of burning. I had a different question   The product is, "baked (their website's word, not mine)," sterilized and appears to be in...

I've got 280-300 peppers ready to plant outside. Taking this week to harden off more & till new garden (if the rain lets up) & then I'll be planting out.    Buttttt... I'll be getting CAPCOM's seed train this week. I'm sure there will be a handful of things I'm very eager to plant this season...

My parents came back frim Guatemala yesterday & instead of getting names & pictures of pods & bringing back seeds, they brought back pods... and several of some of them. No names. Where they were, in the Highlands people speak a local Mayan language K'iche' primarily with some Spanish. My...

Stumbled across Ted Barrus' video of the Reaper x Tepin a couple of months ago, as well as Nigel's Barrackpore x Tepin video. Have also seen Hippy Seed Company sells Tabasco x Naga Morich. The thought of these tiny morsels of heat is very enticing to me. Anyone have seeds for anything like this...
