I am with you:

Hopefully these are dry by Saturday, I have got to start picking before branches begin breaking off from the pod weight.

Very nice, I still have a ton I need to process

LordHill · Sep 17, 2015

Im hoping removing these ripe ones get some of my greens ones ripening. Michigan doesnt have all that much grow time left

Daaaaaaaaayum that's a beautiful sight. Reminding me to get started on my own pods. I've been stocking the freezer waiting for my wife to be gone for the day but no luck there. I'm gonna have to do something soon.

What to you plan to do with the dried ones?

LordHill · Sep 19, 2015

Personally, powders. Red savina hab powder, jalapeno powder, and and probably a mixed powder

i still have a ton of greens left :/ i need to pull my babies out soon too

alkhall · Sep 24, 2015

With eight trays, I can do maybe 400 pods at a time. Usually takes at least four days to fully dry them.

Looking at my plants, I would estimate at least a thousand pods remain, maybe more.

I have several weeks of dehydrating left...

alkhall · Sep 25, 2015

And... another round:

Top row, left-to-right - Chocolate Bhut Jolokia, CBJ, CBJ & Orange(ish) Brainstrain.

Bottom row, left-to-right - King Naga short, King Naga long, Red Brainstrain, Yellow Brainstrain & Peach (Not) Peach Jay's Ghost Scorpion.

Only seven trays, I have a dozen or so from the last batch that did not get crispy dry, so they are finishing off in the eighth tray.

More next week when these are done.

I am just ramping up with the dehydrating.

Next comes the bad part; flaking all those dried pods.

I bought three dozen pint Mason jars, and one dozen quart Mason jars. Should be enough, I hope.

I will post pics of the finished product.
