So I went to the Korean market

I bought these today. There are six clear varieties. Smokemaster can tell us what's what, I bet. From what I can gather there are 7 market types here :- Long Fat Royal Instructor- or Um Hang, Hong, Gwari, Korean Cayenne,Cucumber,Donkey kick and Masisheyeo or Delicious.The small slightly ribbed one has a nice bit a bite.What I propose to do is dry them and sell the pods. You'll have the seeds inside them to. It'll take a month or so, I guess.Bearing in mind I'll have to post them and you'll get a good mixed selection of pod with seeds, PM me if you'd like some.It'' be a mixed batch, I want to share them properly.I provide a Flickr link, excuse my photography skill, normally my toes appear.If you like nice BBQ chilies with a nice crunchy, waxy texture with heat , and are sweet PM me for dried pods.I reckon I may have 8- 10 bags available after drying.

$5 bucks for seeds x 20 = KRI's (post is a lot cheaper then expected)

A Bag of dried Pods with seeds inside = $10- probably about 7 < different pods(with seeds) in them. Qty 10- 12 approx mixed dried pods

Is the other way bad? Can't they be used after drying?

I am still learning, but the question for the ripe pods is in regards to seed viability I think. Pods have a better chance of seeds that will germinate if picked in the final color phase of ripeness. Otherwise seeds can be immature and not grow. So those green pods, if they turn red when ripe may have immature seeds. Again, I am still learning but this is what I think happens. Someone please correct me if needed.
