Is the news really this bad that no one replied...? :neutral:

White mold, with some tiny black balls. It started durring the Summer, now it has spread to almost every plant. I tried to control it with garlic water but  it seems it was not effective and I had to stop using it because of the smell (which I do not mind but others in the house do). The burned...

Check your new leaves that are just popping out. If they are like miniature normal big leaves your problem is probably pests. If they are like miniature shrivelled leaves then your problem is more likely nutrient deficiency. Some Calcium, Magnesium and Iron wouldn't hurt. Just don't overdo it...

Refrigerate, freeze, pickle, dry, or make sauces. PepperSeeds also mentions chili oils and drinks. https://www.pepperseeds.eu/pepersbewaren/

Try removing the stems.

  Have you ever heard of the Clifton Chili Club? ;)

It might be legit but an eBay listing can very easily be fake and there are no reviews yet. Actually, the product itself has no counterfeit protection. It would not be very hard for someone to produce a super-hot sauce using other super-hot peppers and extract, bottle in similar bottles, stick...

I was talking with a botanist friend today about these exact nutrition deficiencies in plants. She suggested to give them Calcium and Magnesium. Are you reusing the soil from a previous season by any chance?  

Biological weapons from the ground up? Not as cool as exterminating with Lasers, but I will give it a shot. ;) 

Caterpillars are eating my plants. This means total war. The attack on my Rhodian Red will never be forgotten or forgiven. I am must meet the threat with determination to insure that humans, not insects, will eat and enjoy chilli peppers now and always. It is time to seek, locate and...

I am growing these this year. :P  :dance: 

Carolina Reaper 7 Pot Jigsaw 7 Pot Infinity 7 Pot Brainstrain Trinidad Moruga Scorpion Bhut Jolokia Chocolate I won't mention anything bellow 1M SHU. Hopefully, I will get some fruits.

  Didn't said that you did. I just thought that a distinction between the two was necessary to avoid confusion. ;) I was suffering from regular headaches as a kid and as teenager and I do have a little bit of First Aid experience so I added my two cents. Bicycle808, 1-3: I would be surprised...

  Not thunderclap headaches. Any strain may be a trigger for normal headaches. Just a headache is not enough for diagnosing anything other than a headache. The article mentions that thunderclap headaches are associated with vessel damage in the brain, therefore, it is like saying that eating...

Seems interesting but I am at 39 cultivars for this season. Not sure if I want my 40th cultivar to be this one.

  You will go on a vision quest within a vision quest and your spirit animal guide will show you the woman or man of your dreams and where to find them. Ancient knowledge will be disclosed to you about how to travel in space and time so you can meet them, but when you do then the universe will...

Nope. He had a pre-existing condition; namely: RCVS. That's why he got the Thunderclap Headaches. The article did not prove that it was the pepper that gave him RCVS. But you know how journalists are, always trying to demonize things, act as if the skies are falling and use as much click-bait...

To top or not to top, that is the question... Do it the Greek way. Take a sturdy pole, drive it into the soil, near the main stem, use twine to attach the plant to the pole and let them work together. Especially useful when there is not much profit from topping but you don't want to end up...

  Three sprouts are not that much and seedlings are very fragile. I would advise separating them and planting each one in its own pot. Of course, you can start with small pots that take less space. You can use as pots many types of containers that normally are thrown away, by merely drilling a...

I repotted the leggy Jalapenos covering about 3/4ths of the excess stalks. It is ridiculous how leggy they got. Also, their roots seem to be underdeveloped. I guess direct Sunlight will help? I am going to check them when the night falls.
