Trying to play catch up!

Lookin' good brother, and the rain should help things along I'm thinking. I loved the Bahamian Goat pods that coheed shared with me earlier, and glad to see you do as well. What's your favorite way to fix Bhuts? They're too concentrated to eat by themselves unless you're counting coup on yourself, but I wonder how best to "unlock" the flavor like you would a glass of whiskey by adding a bit of water to it.
Rick, i mostly eat the bhuts fresh or dry and powder. I tryed making a sauce the first year i grew them, but it turned out too thin and vinegar-y for my liking. I enjoy snacking on pieces of fresh pods, while in season, with anything I'm eating and in doing so... i have have had my fair share of bhuts. This year, with so many choices, the red ghost, bhuts, & nagas have all been neglected.
But on the other hand... The bahamian goat has not! I really like these pods. I only got one seeds to germ, and one plant is just not enough. Four to six minimum next season!
Rain did it's justice! Flowers and baby pods everywhere. Hoping there will be time for the majority to ripen up.
Happy Friday

That's one good looking and big ass B. Goat pepper! I liked it a lot as well last season, funny thing is the inside of the pepper is white. That GWH's looks a lot like my 7 Pot White last season, the GWH's I'm growing this year looks more like a Habanero.
Thanks Stefan! The white 7s from pepperlover and GWHs from RFC are almost indistinguishable from each other. The wife mixed up what was left after the the market two weekends ago and i couldn't tell them apart except for a bruised pod gave one away that i remembered from picking. I mean identical. Taste test would be useless too. The last time i have both together they heat even seemed the same. The last white 7 i had was a bit warmer, but even the GWHs can surprise ya every once in a white. I like the flavor on both.
It is funny. the color inside the Bahamians. I gotta grow more next season and over winter this guy too.

Great stuff!!! I agree that is one Big-gas bahamian goat!!!
You're gonna love the those Goat's Weed also...very seedy, extremely hot for an annuum, but their looks is where its at. Stunning looker in the garden.
I did enjoy them goat weeds. Nice flavor and heat for a annuum. Looking foward to growing out these seeds. Thanks Jamison!
Big a$$ lol.

Awesome pics brotha! Dude, I have tons and tons of Goats WEed pods let me know if you want more man, or anything for that matter! My primo's are getting gnarlier too so expect another package soon man!
Yeah Man! That first primo i ate was covered in placenta. Awesome taste and maybe the hottest i have eaten. Equal to or just barely above some of the others this year in that running. Really good taste too. My buddy at work agreed. There was a point in the flavor where you think the taste is going to go bitter, but right then it doesn't leaving you with that wonderful flavor.
I can't imagine anything gnarlier, those were bumpy scary pods!
This week... peppertime, at work, was sponsored by Jamison.
A few notes in a minute... Thanks again Jamison.

Cool red and yellow Jonah thimbles!
Mike! I am pretty stoked on these. The other jonahs are normal. These two are on their own. Haven't tried the yellows yet. Jamison's care packaging cut in line.
Digging the pod shape though.

Wow, still going strong!! Looks like you had a badass season. Lots of pod porn and those plants are just beasts. Nicely done sir Jason!

Thank you kind sir. It's not over yet. A ton to pick this weekend. The beginning or the second huge round and still seeing flowers and baby pods lining up the ends of the branches. Hope most can ripen up before it comes to an end.
I am starting to make the overwinter list and thinking about nexts season seeds too. So much to grow.

Nice pods
Your plants just keep going, don' t they?
Thanks Wahlee! They haven't let up yet. Ga clay and the humidity / weather, with all this rain this season, have set things on course. Right now, they are trying to load up like they know the end is near.
If winter never comes, i might be i trouble.

All I can say is wow!
Killer grow this year!
I bet you're busy!
Thanks for the kind words Scott. Busy yes, never enough time to process these peppers left in my days. Between work and my back bothering me... I haven't gotten nearly enough dried, cut and/or frozen as i should have.

I double what Scott said and raise it to include great pictures brethren ^_^
Thank Ramon.
Ok. a few noted on some of Jamison's box of joy.
7 primo... Hot and tasty. Way up there heat. And a great flavor. Cool gnarly pods. What more could a man want from a superhot?
Naga viper.
Cool shapes. Heat was most interesting. Started real slow building and when really came on heat wise, the heat migrated across my mouth finally setting in on my tongue. Hot but enjoyable hot. Flavor was likable. Cool pods!
Choc scorp... These from Jamison are a sharp contrast from my choc scorps. Appearance is completely different from the too. Jamison's cjoc scorp has a really good flavor. It started off like tasting like a jamaican hot chocolate pod but then switches into a sweet douglah like taste on the back end. Mine are just nasty bitter. These are shiny smooth, mine more rough and textured. These had a nice heat, could have eaten another pod with my lunch today after the first. My choc scorps are straight to pins and needles pain, hurting badly, with more pain than a warm or hot sensation.
Need to send you a couple of mine to try Jamison.
I liked Jamison's choc scorpion much better on the taste and heat than the ones i have growing, but mine do have there wicked place.
I ate smaller bonnets with dinner this evening. Thinking costa rican bonnets. Yummy pods to with just enough eat to keep me happy.
More later... Happy Friday to all
