    Two issues

    Fertilized with Medina "Growin Green" 4-2-3, about 2 weeks ago. Last Saturday, put down a fresh load of compost/ mulch on top of existing soil. Some point in between, gave a few sprays of epsom salts on foliage.

    Two issues

    Hey y'all. Maybe you can help, I'm having two issues with my pepper patch.   First off, some of my plants- especially my tabasco plant- are showing leaf curl.        I'm in San Antonio, these are in the ground already, and it's been fairly warm recently. I also have a cayenne plant that's...

    cutlery Your favorite kitchen knifes...

    I got the wife a chef's knife at World Market for Christmas- their store brand. About $15, and holds an edge better than anything we've ever owned. Thing's got a taste for blood, though- we've both managed to donate to its thirsty blade on multiple occasions.

    food Gluten Free cooking with fire

    Tinkyada is pretty good, if you haven't tried it. Also, Annie's does a GF mac and cheese that keeps me sane. M&C is right up there with meatloaf on my list of comfort foods.

    food Gluten Free cooking with fire

    Ah, GF cooking- now we're talking about something I know a thing or two about. I'm not gluten sensitive, but my wife is, which pretty much means I eat and cook GF. Let's start with the single most important thing: Don't drink Redbridge. It's bad, and Anheuser-Busch should feel bad for making...

    vendor Pepper Joe

    Even though it's my first day here, and I risk coming across as a shill, I wanted to give Joe a shout-out. I ordered from him earlier this year, and I've had nothing but success with his seeds. Being an utter n00b at this, I didn't keep good notes on germination rates. For every plant I...

    I love me some Sriracha. It's not great in all applications, but for most Asian-type dishes, it's almost a perfect flavor profile.

    food The General Taco thread. All things taco.

    I like tacos. The whole reson I started growing peppers was to improve my taco experience. I also grow cilantro- same reason. I'm really looking forward to throwing some pics up here the next time I do a proper batch. Y'all have inspired me. Soon.
