I bought 3 packs of these. Put your stones down folks!!! This hobby has gotten me through a very difficult year. I can't wait to pass out all of these to my friends here,and a couple unsuspecting newer members. Maybe I'm weird?? *shrug*..... I am not a hater,nor am I buffaloed by a vendor's B.S. I think it will be cool to pass these out to some folks and have them grow them along with the primo,and have some "positive" threads comparing and contrasting them next year. I know..I'm weird. I was one of the first people chiming in that they looked like primo's. After seeing one of Ted's reviews and him mentioning the "density" of the pod,I thought "doesn't sound like a primo to me". I formed another opinion(to myself) of what it might be. Now after seeing Mega's pics ,I am leaning towards it being a primo again. If some of you are seeking "polarity",it isn't working. Tiger Woods is polarizing. Greatness brings polarization...not angry gibberish.
I'm not sure if I am growing mine wrong or not,but I have had no less than 40 pods look just like the ones mega posted. I would love to see pics of yours. There is a lot of variation with the primo pods.
Thank you for posting that pic Mega. All the other photos I have seen were quite blurry.
Primo
Nice pics mega. I don't think they look like primos. I have a lot of primos growing .
Edit: Also, I think Ed said it took him 4 years for F8s. It should be possible to get two growing seasons, especially with greenhouses. I'm working on a 5 year plan for F8 crosses, which include a 7 pot original x bhut jolokia . On a side note, they should be pretty homogeneous after F7. At F8 they are typically homogeneous enough to be considered stable. It could also occur earlier than F7 or F8, since genetic homogeneity varies.
