Greetings all. This is Kevin from Minnesota. Im just getting started in this whole pepper craze. It all started over a year ago when I bought a jar of Strawberry-Jalapeno Jam at a craft show and Ive been on fire ever since. Now I make my own jams with a wide range of heat and fruits. This year Im trying something new... Im growing my own. I have some Orange Habaneras, Red Caribbean Habaneras and some Bhut Jolokias started and under lights. Some are doing well others are struggling. Ive never grown ANYTHING from seed before so to me Ive made an outstanding achievement just getting what I have. Plus from what Ive read peppers arent the easiest to grow in the first place.
If Im able to get a harvest this fall I plan to make my jams and maybe experiment with dried pods, powders and maybe even seeds. I dont know yet. I have to get a crop first.
Anyway Im real excited to have found this place and I hope to be able to contribute in some way in the future. But for right now Im going to be reading a lot and learning everything I can from you guys.
