    Greetings from Sarnia, Ontario, Canada!

    Thanks for all of the 'warm' welcomes everyone!! Awesome to be here! Just got home from work and went out to check on my pepper patch. Brought in three ripe Apaches. All three about an inch and a quarter or so. Will freeze for sauce making time.

    how big do reapers normally get?

    Gangaskan -- One of my Habanero plants and one of my Scotch Bonnet plants did the same thing. Both produced a ripe pod about the size of a nickel or so. The habby was earlier than the Scotch Bonnet by about ten days or so. I picked both to get them off the plant and froze them for a sauce I...

    what's going on????

    I'm still a green horn to growing but I'd brave a guess and say you're either over fertilizing or using a fertilizer the plants don't really agree with. If I'm not mistaken, your leaves will curl if you're providing too much nitrogen. --SIS
