I asked him if he had some chocolate Thai, he was an old hippie and he got a little gun shy... I bet this cat might have the mother load stash. I love to meet another seed hoarder
For me getting ready for spring means picking more peppers. Mine grew right through the winter .Wish the japanese eggplant had made it.
Never seen anything grow faster and produce more than peppers they sell in bags as mini sweet peppers in grocery stores.
Have plants that are 3 years old now and they have produced well year round.
I have a particularly long blooming pepper variety, Aji Amarillo, from south america and wondering if anyone has any proven way of getting them to produce flowers and peppers more quickly....
They did not finish last year and are supposed to take between 90 and 120 days from sewing but they were probably 150 last year and only a couple turned orange and finished up properly.
Plant early. Boost pk when mature and ready to flower/flowering. You won't get good yeld like other faster varieties but indeed it's a nice pepper for salads and sauces. Gives a nice fresh taste. I had the yellow ones, aji limon.

I have grown them for several years but last year they didnt get much attention. I am considering planting in pots this year so they will get more wet dry cycles and so I can move them around. That was also an issue last year with tomatoes getting way overgrown and taking all the space in my small beds. Trying tomatoes from seed this season so maybe they won't go so crazy....
I also dont really feed much just amend the soil before plantings so as I have a shit ton of PBP soil left over I am gonna use it up on them.
Ok so after much deliberation I caved in and grabbed some new peppers to try out this summer.
Bhut Jolokai
Carolina Reaper
Regulars are
some south american varieties
rocoto
aji amarillo
Banana
Some salsa mix
for those that have grown the bhut jolokai and the reapers what do you use them for? Powder or do you even consume them or just grow them to say you grow the hottest shit out there?
