Nice harvest buddy. If we get lucky and have another 2 months without a freeze this season might just end up being decent.

No frost until the end of October would be great here in NW Indiana. I am hoping to get to October without one and I will be happy.

Buddy, nice looking harvest. I see some familiar faces on your counter!!! Nice pods.

Wow how many plants do you have. I have like 60 plants and have no where near that harvest. Good job!!

thanks. i have about 75 plants that made it this year.

Very nice! I hope that I get a harvest like that someday.

Can't predict the frost date but you may be getting some nice tropical rain. Make sure you post some pics of your smoking process. Smoking,and powder making have really caught on here. Nice varieties and harvests.

Looking great. Smoker is going good here. Nice harvest and variety. Looks like a nice variety of heat levels and flavors.

This White 7 you speak of and show images of...what is it like in flavor???

here is the Labor Day harvest. we're finally starting to pop after a brutally hot and dry summer - lots and lots of pods on the plants.

Hey Buddy - how about taking me along to the next Illinois game? I love a Bloody Mary. BTW- nice harvest!

 

[buddy]

how about next week . . . as always, tailgating is mandatory.

I harvested some of the 7 Pod Yellows today - tasted a little piece of one - very HOT. I think that they would be good in a Bloody Mary - maybe we should give it a try.
