sprinkle some pepper powder on and around the plants you dont want them on/near/chewing-on. I have indoor cats and I sprinkled some bhut powder on the leaves over the winter and they never munched on the plant again. im sure you'd have to keep reapplying after watering but thats what I used for...

thats gotta be what it is.. this just started happening when I moved my bhut to a sunnier spot on the deck, and I had one monster peper which started showing signs of this right on the outside of the plant. the others were deep at the top of the plant, but you could still see them. would this...

any reason it would just be my bhut plant and not the bells, jalapeños, or the other two habs?

cut them all open, they all were fine except that orange one in the top pic. it had no seeds.. they were all dried up or something.

http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&q=pepper%20maggots&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&biw=1920&bih=1031 I've seen these flies before! What can I do?! http://www.organicgardeninfo.com/pepper-maggot.html says the larvae leave near the stem... makes sense.. lemme pop open that green pepper...

only thing I've seen has been ants, but I figured nothing of it.. pepper eating ants? rofl.. Ill watch for them tomorrow and see whos nibbling.

No birds.. these are from way inside the plant at the top, nor do I ever see birds on my back porch. take a look at the green one. the entire inside membrane is exposed with no damage to it. i'd think they'd be a bit more destructive.. Hoping its not bacteria or something.

Only on a few of my peppers, have I been experiencing this sort of rot. Its flesh seems to go away, and it just opens up, no browning or anything, and I have no idea what it is.. you can see what I mean on the green pod in the center. Any insight? Hope it doesnt hit any of my other pods...

So some of my bhut plants pods ripened.. figured I'd toss a picture up here.. looking more bhut like!!! Also, the only two to have sprouted so far have been the t scorp and bonda ma jacques. Trying to germinate some of them in peat pots instead of soggy sponge stuff for now.

those bhuts look like my mystery bhuts.. interesting.. who did you buy from on ebay? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v347/Napalm_Fire/IMG_2811.jpg

just got chile powder in my eye...

Heres a video of our first hot pepper of the summer. Its a non-ripe supposed bhut jolokia. I had the one all the way on the right in the beginning of the clip. Let me tell you.. hot pepper, but I was disappointed to find that one of my habaneros was even more painful than the bhut was to begin...

they tend to not set flowers in the aerogarden. the roots are too wet and its producing too much rich foliage. Also, the indoor temperature doesnt help much when its around 70 all the time.

From what ive found, its not how tall, its how thick before I have to remove them. When the stem reaches about 3/4" thick I have to pull them. My bhut jolokia, i had to cut the top deck apart to get it out. Ill also be switching to liquid nutes because the tablets get all chalky in the pump and...

So i've begun my 2010 and probably into 2011 plant grow and I will be over wintering them to grow again next summer. I'm using an aerogarden ag7 pro200 and the stock nutrient tabs until I run out of them. Got my letter of seeds from neil @ HSC today and installed/planted them into my...

hahah thats so strange! Cant believe thats the same plant. Yea I'd agree with that actually, the habaneros on my mass producing monster arent really how they looked at the end of the year last year.

yea they were both supposed to be bhuts. When I look at the stem, it doesnt go over the pepper like a cap that I see on bhuts, it is almost like recessed at the top where the pepper comes back up before moving down into the pod shape. I'll be growing them out for sure because they are spicy as...

I start my plants in an aerogarden and when it gets too big I transfer it to dirt. The stem is about 1" thick and its only a 1 year old plant. I use just plain regular soil with Miracle grow tomato/vegetable blue granulated fertilizer. I also ground up a few calcium tablets and threw them in a...

this is the hab from last year before wintering

the only reason why I doubt is because I had received seeds from both nmsu and ebay, and they got mixed. Should be ripe soon, I'll post back when theyre done, and when we decide to eat them.
