So you eat food that has the heat - Hot N Spicy!   And then your nose runs....     Anyone know why?       (I couldn't be bothered to google it lol)     TIA, TBG.

NOW RECRUITING FOR THE AUSTRALIAN SEED TRAIN!       After the Success of the first Australian seed train (see http://thehotpepper.com/topic/63922-all-aboard-the-aussie-seed-train/) we're back, and better than ever!   That's right folks, this time, we're going Perpetual!   What exactly does that...

So, I've seen suggestions/comments/ideas/thoughts on this here, there and everywhere, so why not have a thread for it?   So what's a good name? Lets here them!     I'll start off with one I've mentioned before:                                                                                The...

Something I found on Facebook and thought you guys would appreciate.

Does chilli powder tend to lose its strength over time?   We're talking about 6 months, or thereabouts.    I feel like the powder isn't as hot as it first was, is it losing its potency, or am I just getting more heat resistant?   Thanks, TBG.   BTW, Powder in question is made from a mix of super...

Yo! Been looking around here, and around Google, at some literature concerning the crossing of chilli peppers. So I was wondering where you guys get your info from, or have recorded your wisdom? Just want to make sure I don't miss out on any important or interesting stuff! Cheers, TBG.

Has there been any since July? I thought they were monthly?

The title speaks for itself. The plant is Cayenne X Bhut, so I don't think it's foliage is meant to be black/purple. I have two plants of that variety/cross, but only one has the patches. Any way, here's the photos. So, should I be concerned? It's the only plant behaving this way, hasnt had...

To celebrate my first Spring Equinox on the forum, I'm doing a mega giveaway of all the seed that I didn't use! There are three giveaways: - Newbie Giveaway - Aussie Giveaway      and - Thankyou Giveaway   First up, THE NEWBIE GIVEAWAY   For the newbies of the forum, (of which I was one just a...

So I have these two seedlings, the seeds got mixed up, and one's a Bahamian Goat, and the other's a MoA Scotch Bonnet. But which is which? Obviously two different species in the pics. So, if anyone could shed some light, that would be great! Thanks, TBG

What do you guys give your plants while they're still young? If anything?   I'm talking just after first set of leaves and then for a few weeks.   This is my first time starting from scratch, so wanted a few opinions.   Thanks in advance, TBG     P.S Will accept bribes for best answer  :D :rofl:

G'day G'day! Welcome to my very first glog, I hope you like it: ;)   This is my first time growing peppers seriously. Last season was my first; I grew 3 Jalapenos, 3 Habaneros,  a Naga Viper, Thai Hot, Cap Mushroom Red and an Ebony Fire, all bought from the store at various maturities. And then...

So I seem to be posting in here quite a bit, but heck, isn't that what this forum's about? (Aside from everything else...)   But anyway, would there be anything wrong with using clear solo cups? To grow plants in, not to drink out of lol     Maybe I should start my own thread in here "Blonde...

Just wondering what anyone thinks of the suitability of this light as a grow light:   https://www.bunnings.com.au/philips-11w-2ft-1000l-dl-diffused-ip20-smartbright-led-batten_p4371385   I'd only be using it to grow plants for max 10 weeks. (from seed)   Any thoughts are appreciated thanks! 

For composting that is. I'm looking at starting a worm farm, and am under the impression that you can't use any old worm from the the ground. So where do you get worms to farm? Thanks in advance, TBG

So it seems that every time someone new joins, including myself, they don't know how to upload photos. What I reckon should happen is when you first join, there's a tutorial thingy for uploading photos via PhotoBucket or whatever. I think that it would curb the fairly constant stream of people...

Aji Amarillo is the variety of the Inaugural Growdown Throwdown for the Southern Half of the world! GROWDOWN BEGINS 21ST JUNE - WINTER SOLISTICE! No seeds sown before this date are eligible for competition. All seeds must be from reputable vendors e.g THSC. Only one plant can count towards...

Not sure if its happened yet, but what about a skewer throwdown?   You know, kebabs, brochettes, food on sticks pretty much.   Just thought I'd put it out there.

I'm running a thread for the Southern Hemisphere Growdown Throwdown, and voting is closing in a few days. The current title is  "Southern Hemisphere Growdown Throwdown - VOTE!"   But I was hoping to change it once the variety is determined.   Is there any way for that to be done?   Thanks, TBG

Here's what's got me fired up:       I saw this posted in a Chilli Fanatic group on Facebook. I haven't included the bloke who posted it.   Anyway, here's my problems:   1) "New World's Hottest Chilli" makes it sound like its official, which is a load of s##t. There is no way that it could...
