    seeds Germination with peat pellets

    I grow my own seeds and not all always sprout so I use the paper towel method. Then I know for a fact it's a good seed before I waste my time watering a dud in some soil or whatever. Sent from my SM-S767VL using Tapatalk

    nutrients Good Soil and Nutes

    Hi. I like to grow everything organically. I think fox farm ocean forest soil is a great soil to use. Or black gold. Stick with organic nutrients from Roots Organic, Fox Farm, or a compost tea. Stay away from chemicals like miracle gro. A 5 gallon smart pot would be good too. This is the kind of...

    overwintering Accidental over-winter…

    I'm overwintering a few plants as well. The main goal is just to keep the roots alive until spring. If you have any nodes or leaves left growing off your 2" stem it will be able to survive. Not sure if it would make it otherwise. I would give it a shot of nutrients if you want then transplant in...

    How do YOU choose your keepers?

    This was my first time, but I kept the best looking plants with the biggest fruit, and just over all health of the plant. Here's one of my Carolina Reapers I decided to overwinter. I also have Caribbean red habenero Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk

    overwintering Overwintering Reapers and Habeneros

    Last year was my first time growing Carolina Reapers, and Carribean red habeneros. I had a few plants of each but picked 1 habeneros and 2 reapers to overwinter under 2 cfl lights in the house since I live in Minnesota. I just left them in the same buckets with the same soil they were growing...

    pickling Pickled "Everything"

    I'm in Minnesota and there is pickled pigs feet here too. Also chicken feet. And I know quite a few ppl that pickle their venison as well. I like pickled eggs myself, and my homemade spicy pickled cucumbers lol with Carolina reapers in them. Extremely hot but they're so delicious you have to eat...

    Too early for Jalepenos and Habeneros?

    No problem. Yeah, I think that's plenty warm enough. Especially if they're getting a lot of sun... That would be awesome to be eating fresh peppers by May. I was kind of thinking about moving to Arizona some day. Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk

    Too early for Jalepenos and Habeneros?

    Where do you live? I think jalapenos and habeneros usually take around 90-120 days. The hotter the pepper the longer it takes. I live in Minnesota and planted Carolina reapers indoors in March, put them outside in June, and didn't get to harvest until October. That's like 200 some days. Sent...

    Nice! Deer hunting season is coming up soon here. I was thinking some reaper venison sausage or bratwurst, and venison fire jerky as well. And I'm definitely making some jam/jelly. Sounds delicious Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk

    Great idea! I forgot all about the jelly. I have had some pretty tasty apple pepper jelly! Makes a great marinade as well. Thank you! Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk

    Hi. I've grown my first harvest of Carolina Reapers this year along with Trinidad Scorpions, and Carribean Red Habeneros. The season is coming to an end here in Minnesota, and I have a ton of Reapers to pick yet. I'm waiting for some to over ripen so I can harvest seeds and then try to over...
