I got them from a garden store. Not sure which one.

I bought a couple of ghost pepper plants this year because I didn't get my seeds started in time. The one is bearing fruit and the other is just starting. The peppers look like ghosts, but they have stingers and they do NOT smell or taste like ghosts. There is no fruityness at all, just heat...

This is my third year with ghosts. The first year i bought plants and never pruned because I didn't know. Then I over wintered them and the next year they didn't take off, even after pruning. This year my wife bought two plants and they look like this. Lots of blossoms on top, and I nipped...

I'm not a pepper expert, but from my experience, different kinds of peppers have different kinds of burn. Jalapeños burn my whole mouth with a warm heat. Ghost peppers send a searing line down the center of my tongue and down my throat, just like hot molten metal, then it spreads from there...

I have 2 plants that I overwintered. I just want to plant some of my seeds.

When will they start making pods if I start them this week?

Is it too late to start ghost pepper seeds? I wanted to get to it about a month ago, but got busy.

When does everyone plant? Do you plant by the moon?

I was just reading in one of our gardening books and it says roots can cover an 8 ft diameter and go down 4 ft in good soil. You should have a nice healthy crop this year.

Its ok, we all make mistakes. I brought my ghost peppers inside and they have been doing pretty well, considering how little daylight we have right now. We live on the 45th parallel, so the days are short and the sun is low in the sky. I keep my peppers watered and they keep growing. I am not...

Lol, 6400 watts would fry those plants and your house, its most likely the color temp of the light. I have water pans under my peppers and keep them full so the peppers stay moist.

Are you guys for real?? Just shake the bush? I never thought of that

I have been hand pollinating my 2 ghost peppers since they came in the house in the fall. I have harvested about 60 peppers from hand pollinating, and more are growing. Sometimes it doesnt work, sometimes it does. One thing I have learned is if I use my little paintbrush a couple of times a...

I have found that most plants will remain true most of the time. Thats about it. Sometimes the pollinators will visit more than one plant at a time and sometimes they wont. Bees are very intelligent and try not to cross pollinate. Peppers might confuse them because the plants look the same...

Exactly. I have seen other companies make similar promises and when it never happened they went belly up. It took a year or two, but it happened. Trust is a big thing and you dont want to lose it.

Thats why I was asking too, just wanted to try one.

Does anyone know when pepper X seeds will be available?

As some of you know, I picked 45 ghost peppers this week. I cut them up and put them in the dehydrator. Normally I would put them in the curing cabinet, but I wanted to see how they would turn out in the dehydrator. What I found was more surprising than I expected. For those who dont know, a...

Have you tried willow powder to help with rooting?

They are still flowering. Theyre blooming right now. Im not sure how many pods I have picked from each plant for sure. My wife picked them up a bit late in the season and they were small, so they didnt really kick in until late summer. Probably 50+ from the one plant and maybe 30 from the...
