Ok i just wanted to clear some things up with this strain. Four to Five years ago i tried the cross pollination of this strain i created. I grew it out the first year and it looked just like the Caribbean Red Hab, second year the same, third year the same, then on the fourth year it started to...

  I guess you are right, i'll keep trying to work on it and make it more stable. I got too excited and i guess i jumped the gun a little bit.

  I know it all sounds crazy in theory but i live and breath peppers. I've been doing this for a long time and i guarantee you this is a new strain that took four years to grow out. I know it takes time to make it stable and that's what i am doing now, but this is definitely a new strain. I'm...

  Yeah i did try four years ago to cross pollinate but i thought i was unsuccessful until i grew it out for a couple years and seen the change in the pods.

  It's the fourth generation

Thank you guys for the great names :) I am going to post what the inside of the pod looks like soon as i am about to ferment some to make a hot sauce.   How about this!! I will send someone some of my hot sauce if i choose a great name you guys come up with. I will look through some of the names...

Well guys how are you all doing? I took to long of a break from this wonderful forum and all you great people. Now it's time to come back with something fierce. I crossed a Caribbean Red Habanero with a Ghost Pepper and i came up with this new, hellishly super hot pod.   I came back to the...

  Ok i'll leave them up there for a while and just try it out i guess. I got even more pods being produced which is crazy seeing how they are already covered in pods, the Tobasco plant is a mega producing plant and the only other plants in my garden that produce as many pods are my Lemon Drops...

  Yes your right i had a roomate tell me that he seen birds on my Tobasco plants so i moved them on my front porch which is elevated and i've never really seen birds come up on it. Only problem now is they'll only have 2 hours of direct sunlight so i'm going to have to find a better solution...

Hello all :) Haven't posted on here on a while and the truth is I've been to busy this year to actually make a g-log but i have about 25 pepper plants growing this year, all in pots and all mixed varieties. If you seen my previous posts i mostly grow super hots but with a couple Cayenne's, Lemon...

Sorry for the delay in updates, the weather here in North Carolina is always something to contend with as we've been having all this tropical moisture rain coming up the coast. I literally haven't seen the sun in almost three weeks but all my plants are doing great none the less. Since i got...

I think i might try Tabasco x Lemon Drop and Devil's Tongue x Caribbean Red. Making my first F2 will be difficult and challenging but i am up for the task plus it will be fun. I did grow some Reaper seeds from pods i harvested, germinated and am growing also and i could have some cross...

Thanks for the comments and i'm hoping that i can get this rolling as i know its not easy. It's tough to do and it takes time, sometimes several years of cross breeding to get it right. I got my fingers crossed :)

I've been growing peppers for about 10 years now and I've always wanted to make my own strain, this year i think it's time. I got about 8 or 9 varieties of peppers growing and i already got in mind which ones i want to cross pollinate but any suggestions are welcome, lets make a strain together...

From what i know with experience is that mulch can be good and bad. First the good part of using mulch is that yes it does help retain moisture so you can lessen your water bill a bit. The bad part of using mulch is that it can sometimes spread disease because too much moisture is locked in and...

Day Dream!!!

Thanks everyone and yes pics are coming soon, i am just waiting to get a better phone because mine is a little messed up at the moment.   I am very excited about this year and being busy wont bother me at all because to me this is a passion and i just love growing peppers :) I've been growing...

I don't use heating pads, all i use is the top of my fridge. I put them in paper towels then i put them in zip lock baggies leaving the zip open to allow ventilation. They don't require much heat to germinate, just moisture. Hope this helps :)

(Pictures Coming Soon)   Every year the list of peppers i grow gets bigger and bigger and i do admit that i guess my addiction gets a little out of hand. I dread the winter time because if it was up to me i would grow all year :)   This years list is as follows with pics coming soon!!   1...
