    So i opened up a slightly overripe pod today, and discovered this: About 1/2 the seeds inside have already germinated! Kinda cool, naturally i planted all of them :crazy: Never seen this before, couldn't find any similar reports in a quick search so figured I'd share. Anyone else ever...

    Pimply mild pods? Do they exist?

    Several of the superhot varieties have the pimply/wrinkly pods (eg bhut jolokia, nagas, 7 pots, some scorpions, some scotch bonnets etc) Are there any mild or moderately hot peppers (ie sub habanero heat) that have that wrinkly appearance? If so what are they? I'm not trying to get into a...

    I had never thought about it before but recently stumbled onto a thread on another site for people claiming to like "spicy" foods. It was suggested that there may be a link between liking spicy foods and liking black coffee. There also seemed to be some support for a link between affinity for...

    New Content Link Direction

    One thing I love about how this forum operates is how the search feature works. I will explain with a hypothetical. If I search the forums for "7 pot," a list populates with thread names that contain 7 pot references. If I click on the thread title, i will automatically be directed to the...

    snack-food Pickled Perfection

    My roomate recently got a tub of spicy pickled asparagus from this little Arizona company named "Pickled Perfection" and these things are delicious.
