Is anyone in Virginia and growing hemp??? Or does anyone want to?

Hey everyone, I've been thinking about starting a farmers market stand in my area and wondering what i'll need to do and a ballpark of how much it's going to cost me.   The VA pickle bill is now in effect and I could sell acidified sauces and powders without certification as long as the labeling...

so i bought 6 pounds of strawberries at the farmers market today because they're some of the best i've had and wanted to preserve that image of my perfect strawberry flavor. i used 3 pounds to make preserves, added wildflower and raw honey(I know it's no longer raw being boiled at 220F), lemon...

My mom asked why there was music playing in my bedroom and i wasn't there... i replied "oh, it's for the plants" and she called me loony and told me I'm out of control and need to find another hobby. I laughed, and told her it's a real thing; scientifically proven even. between that and my...

I found this while out on a walk this evening and have no idea what it is... any thoughts? does it stay or should it go?

This year I did a few overwinters and broke open my precious seed stash(seed trains are the coolest thing ever), a few weeks ago. I had some initial trouble with the overwinters; my parents told me it was doomed from the start, that they've never had any luck. Well, 10 of 14 survived and bonus...

Has anyone ever experimented with light cycles? Like breaking them up into 6 hours on, 6 hours off? Or 8 hour cycles 3 times a day? Something of that nature; like forcing them to power nap?

Hey guys, this was my first year overwintering and I seem to have brought them all to within a day or 2 of their deaths in a cold and dry attic(5 didn't make it but hey, they were just sauce peppers and I get to grow something new in the places). I will put up pictures shortly, but a few seem to...

My boss changed my responsibilities with no extra pay after I said OK the first time as a favor. Today she tried to pass off a job to me that nobody wanted to do and tried to guilt me into working after I told her no. I turned in my two weeks notice 10 minutes later. Totally broke and don't...

Sunday is supposed to have a low of 43, then back up to 50 on Wednesday... Should I start bringing them in and overwintering? It would be a shame, some are LOADED with pods.

I cut into this bhut last night and found something strange... It grew a mini bhut at the tip of the placenta inside... I started sweating after cutting it open, and my fingers burned instantly through purple nitrile gloves :) she was a delicious one; plant's going to be a momma for next year...

So I was cutting up some naga morich peppers and some habs... I forgot to wash my hands. As per the title HOLY HELL!!!! does anyone have a remedy to get rid of this?

I made and pressure canned BBQ sauce yesterday with all organic peppers, tomatoes, herbs from my garden, and some Chivas 12 year. It contains 7 Pot Brainstrain, 7 Pot Barrackpore, Bulgarian Carrots, Datils, Cleo's Dragon Habaneros, Aji Crystal, Cherry Bombs, and Cayenne peppers for a well...

I was wondering if there was ever a t-shirt design for THP, and if so where I could get one? Hoodies might be cool too! Sweats with a chili on the butt for our spicy ladies out there ;)? Just an idea. Would anyone else be interested? maybe a throw down crown t-shirt that could be available to...

I would not reccommend ordering from Seedman.com I had a 20% or less germination rate and a third or more of the 18 varieties turned out to be cayenne. What a disappointment caring for something since march then finding out it's the one pepper I really dislike. After notifying the company, the...

Saw a few Interesting recipes here that inspired a weekend of sauce making. I made super sweet cherry tomato paste to make BBQ sauce with aji crystal, Cleo's dragon habs, datils, naga morich, barrackpore, and brainstrain. Also added Jack Daniels, mustard, soy sauce, and dr.pepper. It's been 2...

I admit the one on the left is a hamburger that's cut in half... it was the best one. made with homemade datil pesto and topped with chopped datil and brain strain fresh from the garden.

I took a bite of my first Cleo's dragon today, and noticed a little unsettling color inside... i cut it open and voila. My question is, is this safe to eat? it looks like it had some kind of pepper endometriosis and i'm not sure if the black stuff is a fungal infection. the white stuff...

I recently found the ultimate in slug control... if you burn them with a propane torch but leave them juicy, the smell attracts more slugs in droves and they feed on the dead slugs over your plants... burn these new slugs and they'll just keep coming. Pictures and possibly a video to come as...

What are the fruitiest tasting peppers? I wanted to try making icecream.
