i have the same on my over wintered pepper plants and have no idea what it is. i find no pests. seems t be on my habs, scorps and bhut but not on my aji :(

LOL thanks guys :) I'm sure there will be lots of space for my peppers since they are in containers :) My grow list for the peppers this year is smaller but its as follows 8x Bhut Jolokia 2x 7pod Jonah 2x Bonda Ma Jacques 3x Orange Hab 3x Trinidad Scorpion 3x Hot Lemon 1x Cayenne

Hi guys, I have a favor to ask. I've got a small back yard with some cedar trees along the fence and a couple small trees - one of which I believe is a trembling aspen tree. Starting late last year its given off some runners or shoots as circled in red in the pics. I really like trees which is...

Thanks Salsalady, the sauces are for my own use and from what you wrote, I gather then that I can probably store the sauces in room temperature as long as the canning is done right and its sealed - then once opened it goes in the fridge. I hate to see all the beautiful peppers not be made into...

Hi Everyone, so I've been reading that its best to have a PH of less than 4 and mine is above that. If my intention is to take the sauce and can them in small mason jars, will I have trouble if I store them at room temp? I'd imagine not if the mason jar is still air tight right? Once I do...

I was always under the impression that the bitter flavor is due to seeds no?

Hmmm. I'm thinking maybe this might be too hot to even take a half shot...or will it be ok? I am going to leave the pepper in there for maximum flavor and aroma. Its a 750ml bottle of vodka with a Raja Mirch - I guess its a bhut by another name. De-seeded but veins still there. If I leave it...

LOL indeed I did. I think they made up the strain because I cant find it anywhere else. LOL

So I figured Raja Mirch is just another name for a Bhut Jolokia. Got the seeds and the pods are now ripening. I had to take a pic because they are huge. Its tough to tell from the picture but the larger pods are 4.5" long. Do Bhuts get that large as well? Mine were like 3" maximum last year.

Definitely will be a while (next season). Well I'll try both methods and next season I'll see how things turn out during germination as well as later own :)

Thanks guys for the response. I did some poking around and it does seem that dehydrating on a low setting should be fine, but I guess the best guarantee would be to pull seeds from a few pods and set them aside, that way if the ones from the dry pods have any issues, the ones that were not...

If I throw the pods in my Nesco dehydrator on the lowest setting (35 or 40C I cant remember) and dry the pods for a couple days, the seeds should be fine right? I'm cutting the pods in half and then putting them in the dehydrator. Also what is the best way to store dehydrated pods. I'd imagine...

Cayenne - easy to grow, not too hot, easy to dry and is great fresh with food Hot Lemon - awesome taste and easily enjoyed fresh with food. Pretty mild Aji Crystal - So tasty and quite mild so easily enjoyed Bhut and all related varieties - great taste, intense heat and easy to dry Bonda Ma...

I had a piece from the business end of a Naga Morich just the other day. It was very hot, but somehow the heat didnt 'hurt' as badly as this thing. Maybe its me but I find the fire out of Bhut and other ghost peppers to be more tolerable. While you burn real bad, its somehow not torturing. This...

...near the business end of the pepper...and it destroyed me. This is by far the most evil thing I've had. Its pretty much right up there for hurt to the 7pod Jonahs that I was growing with a small difference. The heat was instant and went away a bit faster but while it was burning, it was just...

I watch this woman's cooking recipes on youtube from time to time for obvious reasons. Well she finally did a pepper related video but poor thing has been given some false information. We need to send her a Ghost pepper to try :) I want a real reaction and a bit more sweating and glistening...

Awwww poor girl was burning, but she's brave. I think in less than a year she'll be up to a habanero if she keeps it up.

I do have two Bondas not in the video. They were overwintered and heavily infested with aphids. I cut it back to the point where it was a short stick instead of a 3' tall plant. They are just now starting to grow some small leaves. I'm sure I will get some fruit this season, but I will never...

I have had good success dealing with http://www.chileseeds.co.uk/ so thats where I got the seeds from.

Got the following varieties growing Orange Hab Chocolate Hab Red Savina Congo Trinidad (is this basically a red savina?) Red Fatalii Rocoto Bhut Jolokia Naga Morich Dorset Naga Naga Mirch (I guess this and the above 3 are pretty much the same thing called a different name) 7Pod Jonah Trinidad...
