    Oh man it has been ages! I don't know why I haven't posted in so long. Maybe the mature plants don't feel as interesting as the growing plants and first fruits. Speaking of fruits, here's what I picked yesterday: That's 37 ounces (1 kg) of peppers there. I had let the plants go a while...

    I made some pepper jelly today, with a couple of bell peppers and about 10 hot peppers that I picked this morning. Getting ready to watch a movie (or let's be honest, spend an hour looking for a movie on Netflix and then give up) with the wife. Should have remembered fancier crackers when I...

    Those ??? unlabeled seeds plants keep throwing weird peppers. Here's another from the plant I gave my boss: https://i.imgur.com/LDx34n3.gifv

    I saved some seeds from last year but forgot to label them. I think this is an open pollenated ghost that has gotten crossed with something else. Most of the pods look like giant ghost pods, but then there's this: And a gif so you can see all sides: https://i.imgur.com/LDx34n3.gifv

    I'm starting to plan a little for next year. My very favorite pepper this year has been 7 Pot Bubblegum Yellow. It's just really tasty and a heat level I can sort of stand. What else tastes like that? I've read that yellow peppers have a particular flavor, is that true? Should I try more...

    I should probably harvest this plant soon. How long do ripe peppers keep on the plant? https://i.imgur.com/LEhvCe7.gifv Sadly the video tag didn't work with the gif, so here's a still I'm getting to where I have more ripe pods than I know what to do with. Here's white fatalii. I really...

    Not to toot my own horn too much, but it does taste pretty good. Though here's something I've never said before about anything: it has a bit too much garlic.

    Quick update: I picked a bunch of peppers from some plants I gave to my mom. She just didn't know what to do with them. Her loss is my gain, and I really need the peppers now that my little pepper-tasting group at the office has grown to 6 people and they drift over to my desk every afternoon...

    Speaking of unusual pods... I gave my boss one of my unknown saved seeds plants (probably ghost), and he has been getting these monster pods. Super hot but not very flavorful. Comment here about my small hands...

    Hmm, no good open flowers right now, but I don't remember any color. I reviewed some old seedling photos and I think the CoR was populated entirety from my first seed tray. If correct, it can only have one of these varieties: Fatalii Gourmet Jigsaw Carolina Reaper x 7pot Douglah Carolina...

    Another cross, Primo X Purple Ghost has been ripening some pods. They have been really tasty. Caribbean pepper fruity rather than ghost perfumy, and really hot. On two of my plants the pods start out purple, then go green for a while, before ripening to red The plant that isn't showing any...

    I haven't had time for sauce making yet. My wife has been working all weekend and the kids (both younger than 5) have not given me much time for anything. I did pick those peppers though! Produce of two plants here, both the same cross. One plant produces fatter pods that ripen to a darker...

    Cold? I've forgotten the meaning of the word. I need to find a rocoto variety that will survive here. I have two montufar plants, and they are still alive though not thriving

    ingredients What are some good ingredients for a brown superhot sauce?

    I've decided to make my first sauce of the season with these guys They're Reaper X 7 Pot Douglah, but to my taste less hot than the lineage implies. I'd like the sauce to keep the color I have a smoker. I'm thinking a clove of garlic, maybe a hint of malt vinegar, maybe a hint of...

    Thanks, I have gotten a ton of great advice here. Especially the DISGUSTING fish fertilizer my plants are loving so much. Aji Amarillo is definitely on the grow list for next year. My Peruvian neighbor basically insisted. From the picture it almost looks like you have more pods than leaves...
