    BigCedar Brandon grew this beauty...

    If you kept up with his grow log this year, you know how much passion he has for growing his Pacific Northwest Chiles. After a serious setback this growing season, Brandon did not give up and this is the result of his hard work. I will tip a few Kokanees tonight for you buddy. Thanks.

    Chile farm equipment?

    I was driving through the chile fields in Salem, N.M. a couple of seasons ago and saw this interesting farm equipment. Anyone know what it is and what it is used for? I know this is kind of off the wall, but it bugs me every time I see it. Thanks.

    My First Fatalii Concentrate

    Last year I bought some purees from AJ and the Fatalii was something I knew I had to learn how to make. I used his simple recipe of adding Fataliis, sea salt, vinegar, and agave. So far, I have not bought a pressure canner and figured I could cook it down well, use vinegar, and sterilize by...

    hybrid Mulitcolor Fatalii Cross

    I noticed this Fatalii had green, red, and orange all in this color phase and had to take pics. This one is not as typical Fatalii looking as the other ones on the plant and is about 2 inches long. I was surprised by the red coming through because my other Fatalii plants that are ripening all...

    misc Ladybug Nymph

    I am beginning to see aphids again now that all my store bought ladybugs have all flown away. I went back to applying Neem and squishing and came across this guy. Finally a nymph! After looking more carefully, I am finding more and more ladybugs. This photo has been cropped so I can show the...

    Black Pearl Flower

    First time growing this beauty. I absolutely love the flower of this plant. This is the first flower from a young plant. Out of 40 plants, this is the only one with mostly green leaves. Just thought I would share.

    More hardening questions

    Last weekend we finally had sunny days with highs in the mid 60's. I put all my chile plants in the greenhouse, but kept them there all day. I knew better, but still did it anyway. They get some morning sun through the window and thought they could handle it. The temp in the greenhouse stayed...

    DEXTER

    My daughter has been trying to get me to watch Dexter for years but I never had any interest. About a week ago I started Season1 and it took about 2 shows to get me hooked. Bad hooked. I just finished Season 2 at 0400 this morning and now it's a struggle to pace myself for the rest of the shows...

    smoking Smoking Congo Black Peppers

    I am getting ready to order some Congo Black peppers from AJ and think I want to smoke them to make powder. So far, I have not found much info on the search for this. Is this a good pepper to use for smoking, and if so, what flavor chips/chunks do you think I should use? I have only eaten one...

    Smokenator 1000

    I was researching budget smokers in the $150-$250 price range and came across the Smokenator 1000. I am interested in it because I do have a Weber Grill 22.5", use it alot, and love it. It enables me to turn my Weber into an inexpensive smoker for less than $100. It appears to me that a...

    Jalapeno Success!

    I have been impatiently waiting all summer and fall to pick these jalapenos. This plant has produced about 14 large japs about 3-3.5" each. Thanks to all the good advice from THP folks I was able to leave it alone until they turned red. I am hoping so bad for some heat from these guys. What...

    Bhut Jalokia - Red or Green

    I have a Bhut Jalokia plant in the greenhouse that now has quite a few pods on it now. Some of the pods have turned red, but most are still green. I have been eating the small red ones lately and they are outrageously HOT. I completely love the taste these little devils. Yesterday I was...

    My Babies Have Been Attacked!

    I have 8 plants (bhut jalokia, red habanero, orange habanero, thai, jalapenos) in 5 gallon buckets that I moved to the greenhouse a few weeks ago because the cooler/rainy days have returned to Washington.

    My summer has come to an end

    My daughter goes back to college for her second year tomorrow. We have had the best 3 months a person can imagine. Traveling, wilderness camping, backpacking, kayaking, cooking, and digging the same music as me. What else could a dad ask for? We survived a pretty scary incident on the Sauk...
