    Dad has a Bolivian Rainbow...can't remember what it matures to, but I know purple is in there and it has dark leaves.

    105 degrees. I mean, seriously. C'mon already.

    Finally back to low and mid 90s with some cloud cover occasionally and rain the last two evenings. My plants seem to be hitting a grow spurt, though I lost two chocolate hab seedlings, for a grand total of 3 this year. Everything else looks great although I still have a poblano that has yet to...

    Mystery Pod

    I swore I wasn't going to try all kinds of really hot ones next year but I WANT ONE. I'm a sucker for those yellow pods. Might I beg a seed or two off of you? Lol

    seeds How long do chilli seeds last

    Yeah. Not all seeds...but some seeds need to be frozen as a form of inoculation. Obviously chilies aren't one of those varieties but do freeze well.

    hybrid Crossing (breeding) need tips on what to cross

    I agree as well. I would like to know more about the yellow bhut's origins. I don't care what it is, I think it's one of the more beautiful chiles I've seen. I think it should become standard practice to include a pedigree with these new varieties though. Yes I'd like to know how true some of...

    105 degrees. I mean, seriously. C'mon already.

    haha yeah I know it. Not well but I know it. Been from Clovis to Amarillo a time or three and from Clovis to Lubbock several times. Wife used to teach in Bovina, and lived in Amarillo a few years while still married to her ex husband. She grew up in Clovis and didn't leave until 2008. So me...

    105 degrees. I mean, seriously. C'mon already.

    I couldnt imagine driving down through Hereford or Bovina if you guys had any kind of humidity. That black cloud that looms over the stock yards would be like a manure and amonia paste hanging in the air. Ive been out your way when you guys have 100-105F......Id rather be there with 100-105 than...

    105 degrees. I mean, seriously. C'mon already.

    haha yeah my grass is crunchy and is starting to break off where you walk.......havent mowed in 3 weeks, going on 4 weeks! Cracks me up because the neighbor across the street is one of those lawn freaks that picks up (litterally!) every leaf that falls off of his bradford pear tree in the front...

    105 degrees. I mean, seriously. C'mon already.

    I call BS! I know for a fact you guys got the same 3 day break we did about a week ago!...was quite nice and allowed about 4 whole pods to set before dropping resumed lol.....other than that, I can attest to the +95 for 3 weeks minus the three day break we got and less than 1" of rain.

    Sick as hell, is this normal?

    Not sure if it is normal or not but maybe a spot of food poisoning? Did you wash the pepper before consuming? I had a mild salmonella case this year (injested raw chicken) and I took 5 imodium and it didn't slow me down at all. Worst cramps and pain Id ever had and rearend was sore from whiping...

    Do you prefer your super hots over your others?

    EDIT: I do give them the same treatment as the rest of my peppers, but I just like to ensure I have 1 or 2 good healthy super hots of each variety and a large quantity of the more useful New Mexico/Anaheim and jalapenos.

    flowers to fruit

    YEah my jalapenos were short and bushy anyway. Only about a foot and a half tall. Theyve grown a little more quickly the past few days. Heat is back so I fully expect a slow down again.

    flowers to fruit

    I picked all of my green pods off per a certain Canadians advise. Hopefully give the plant a chance to breath and mature a little more. Two were poblanos and I picked them all off and it had began to set new fruit which I will let go. The others were two jalapenos that had been fully grown for 3...

    Pro Mix in North Carolina

    I went to the htg store. I could drop some money there. That's where I was talking about getting it. Guy I work with gave me half a bag. I compared some same age same variety plants in cheap mix vs pro mix and the pro mix root ball was 5x that size of the cheap stuff. Ill just go to htg and get...

    Pro Mix in North Carolina

    Looking to see if any of you NC or SC guys/gals could let me in on where to buy pro-mix. I know of a couple of places but was looking to shop around before I spent $35 on a bale. No problem doing it, but it can be found closer or cheaper, Im all for it.
