I have some wonderful friends that live about an hours drive from me that grow as much of their own vegatables as they can. Lovely couple, we share taste in music and food and conversation, and they are intelligent and well read so we always enjoy getting together. Mike is fond of rum and hot...

I do not usually like to post about personal painful subjects on public forums. This one is important. This is my godchild, Sammie. This picture was taken less than a month ago. She is twenty-two. In January they discovered that she has Ewings Sarcoma, a rare cancer, all the more rare in her...

One of the thing that got me hear and convinced to grow peppers is a bunch of Aji Limon pepper powder Patrick sent me last year (careful, he's a pusher, he'll get you hooked!) But my newbie efforts did not result in large quantities of Aji Limon peppers, as I'd hoped. Thanks to him and Silver...

For the past three years, my next door neighbor has been actively harassing me for petty and perceived violations. The City requires that you mow a minimum of once every two weeks (and they cannot require more) and your grass must stay under seven inches. When it rains here in the Midwest, it...

Dad's growing Bell Peppers, thought I could ask you for some advice on his behalf. He would like to have a nice bushy plant that produces a few peppers to harvest every week all summer long. Got that one or two years and then not. He thinks maybe its a fertilizer issue, wants some advice on...

My dad is going to supply me with bamboo to stake my chilies- how tall are they going to get? I have scorpions, fatalis, Aji limon and habaneros. Dad wants to know how long to cut the stakes.

In the United States this is Memorial Day Weekend, when we pause to remember all that have given thier lives in service to their country, and thank those veterans still with us as well as those still serving. I am told that veterans like hugs. So all of ya'll that have served your nation (even...

Last final, today, Intermediate Algebra, think I did at least 80%, which means I passed the class. WOOOOHOOOOO! Now, I'd be drinking, but I'm on antibiotics for the kidney infection I contracted a week ago (yeah, thats no fun, I was studying sick) and I have no monies with which to celebrate...

I have a hand-me-down car that has been rear-ended one too many times, the bumper cover is currently being held on mostly by duct tape. Mostly. Yesterday about halfway home on the highway the duct tape failed. I got off the highway and proceeded into the right lane, dragging the bumper cover...

I drive past this at least twice a week. I finally remembered to bring the camera: And because I think its important to notice and recognize the artist: This is in a Y of an intersection in front of an open air vegetable stand that I think has been there for at least 30 years.

okay, I went to go check on my scorpions, and in the good outdoor light, I noticed one of the plants has faint tiny yellow spots on the leaves. in other places on the same leaves, the leaf looks very thin. I inspected the others, and found another one with thin areas, but no yellow spots. I...

I was raised to use the Latin names...but I dont know so much botany. I see references to annuums and chinenses, so I am assuming these are the two Genera of chilies that are commonly grown. tell me the differences please, or at least whose what? or link me to a tutorial, I love studying...
