Today hit 100 degrees hopefully for the last time this year. Whatever made it through the summer has a small window of opportunity to produce before our average first frost in mid November.

It's only fair because nothing has been growing for 2 months because the heat. We're supposed to have an unusually cold winter this year I heard.

Eventually I plan on making a spicy pineapple Mead / or capsicumel as some refer to it. Once I get the thumb for growing white ghost or chocolate ghost pepper I think I'll use them for mead's
Can I cross a bird and Carolina reaper.
The bird peppers a hot and from the bit of checking I've done hots and sweets can cross. So im not sure if it's fruitless effort or not

Thanks voodoo I got it bookmarked. I'll definitely check it out. Right now I ve got my reapers and thai peppers within 1 to 2 foot of each each other so im not sure if they'll cross or impart anything to each other. it was unintentional I wasn't even thinking about. When they fruit I guess I'll find out.
Going back to work after 4 weeks of holidays... it's gonna hurt! šŸ„“

Since a teen died doing Paqui's "one chip challenge" recently, I just want to remind you chileheads to take care of yourselves. Have plenty of milk-based products if you aren't allergic to dairy, and *please* go to the emergency room if you're in long-term severe pain. Although these deaths are extremely rare, it's best to take precautions. ā¤ļø

Or eat a bunch of Wally's cheap 1000 mg antacid tablets for capsaicin cramps.

Medication is also important.

Besides the possibility of IV hydration to counteract dehydration from puking, etc., what kind of "medicine" would be administered at an ER to cure pepper belly?
So... who's planning the 2024 season already?

Really disappointed in arroz con pollo pepper (annum), they do not taste great. I will not grow them again.

Sorry to hear about your plants Irish, Let me tell you life is going to kick our asses everyday from the time we are born until the time we die, whether it's storms, plagues, the sun scorching everyone's skull. Tomorrow is another day, get up and flip it the bird.

Cheers!
Looking for upright clustering pepper varieties, approx. cayenne level heat and lower. For drying and heating raw.
