I tried joining a few years ago but the italian confused me and google translate wasn't much help i ended up not ever going back to the site until now i never realy found out what AISPES was about until more recently and i would love to join the organization It might help me get into a good college to
I wonder if NMSU sees field work with peppers and sees i'm looking for a botany degree if they will let me in easier lol i probably could get in already with a 3.4 gpa but you never know
I don't have any AISPES crosses that i know of but would love to join and help the organization
I do have a few questions though do you guys grow out other members hybrids or do you grow out the ones on the AISPES farm (sorry if i named it wrong i'm still trying to figure the organization out) either way id love to join
Current crosses growing out:
Peach Bhut Jolokia (yellow bhut x orange bhut) F1 and F2's (i'm growing both since my harvest failed last year) (Friends Cross)
Pimenta de Neyde x Bhut Jolokia (I'm unsure of the generation)
Chocolate Bhut Jolokia x Yellow 7 Pot (I'm unsure of the generation)
Kaval (Yellow 7 Pod x Paternero) F2? (i know its probably not AISPES)
Let me know if any of them are the AISPES
This year i'm going to cross a few myself all the others were other peoples crosses:
Bell Pepper and 7 Pod or Trini Scorp
Ornamental Pepper and Bhut
Ornamental Pepper and Scorps
Ornamental Pepper and 7 Pod
Ring of Fire and Bhut Jolokia (hoping for an early habenero)
Aji Omnicolor and 7 Pod (hoping to get another type of tree habenero)
Aji Omnicolor and other types of chinense varieties
If AISPES members grow out other members hybrids with them it would be awesome to join
I'm already intrested in joining just to help you guys grow out yours and be able to preserve the beautiful wild varieties too I always loved to look at the Ornamental peppers for there pod shapes and colors i never really noticed the flowers were different until two years ago when i found out about rhomboidum and pratermissum when i noticed different flowers then i noticed even the baccatum annum and chinense varieties all had different flowers and how much it amazed me
