I think your misunderstanding. I am looking to purchase fresh paprika peppers, not make the powder or purchase powder. Thanks anyhow though.dragonsfire said:Almas or Boldog Hungarian peppers are used from what I understand.
Making your own;

If you are more specific about what you're looking for, we may be able to help you more easily. How many?
Do you want a certain type of pepper such as Hungarian, Spanish, New Mexican, etc? Paprika peppers are normally picked almost dry on the plant, so you'll have to find a source that will pick them when you want them.
this is what I am growing now:
NewMex 6-4
kentishman said:I hope you find what you want. I'm growing different paprika peppers for the second year, and I was very pleased with the paprika powder I made last year.
This year I'm growing Szegedi 20, Szegedi 80, and Kalocsai 622. I'm getting a steady supply of ripe pods from them. I air dry them as they ripen, then I will combine them and powder them.
Also growing Kurtovska Kapija, picked 8 nice pods yesterday, and today I'm making my first attempt at using them for a Serbian condiment called Ajvar.
Unfortunately, I'm not getting enough paprika pods to share, although I will be pleased to supply you with seeds for next year.

It would be nice if someone pops up, growing them in quantities!
I have a Szegedi 80 and two Kalocsai 622 thanks to some people here, but my plants are small. The plants are protected and probably didn't get the sunshine they needed so they are small bushes. Got a dozen or more green pods between the 3 plants. Not enough to make a difference for you.
Anyone?
