Found solid gold

Hi all,

So I went to a farmers market in a neighboring city, one I had never been too, and found solid gold.
My only regret is that I didnt pick up triple what I got. Although I only have so many fermentation jars...Im gonna give this farmer so much money next season.

Yellows: 3 peach ghosts, several 7-pot Trinidad yellows, and a bunch of scotch bonnets.
Reds: ghosts, and red Savina habaneros.

Cant wait to make these into sauces after fermentation. Yellow will prob get garlic, onion, carrot, and peaches/mango. Red will prob get garlic, onion, carrot, and mango/papaya or mango/pineapple. Open to suggestions though.

Pretty good price too. All these super hots were mix and match 20$/lb. I got 0.81 lbs for 15$.

Awesome find. I use a guy out of Florida i found on ETSY to fill my super hot needs during the winter months. Last box I got from him was 9 scotch bonnets, 2 carolina reapers, 6 red ghosts, 8 peach ghosts, 6 chocloate habs, 5 choc ghosts, 8 golden hab x scotch bonnets, and like 40 or 50 lemon drops shipped for $22. You don't get to pick though, he sends out an assortment of what he has ripe at the time of order.
 
I'd much rather find a local guy at the farmers market like you did tho.
