A question...

If i touched hot pepper (enough to burn eyes if touched after) and used hand sanitizer after, would it still burn from the peppers?

Scissors for scale

I have 30 seeds started indoors in a grow tent, Some I'm going to move to a hydroponic system, the others in pots/ 5gln pales so I can move them in and out pending the season (zone 7b). For the soil, I'm thinking 1/3 cow manure + compost, 1/3 sand, 1/3 potting mix (eh..?). Should I add perlite or vermiculite? Would that combination work or scratch it all together lol? Thanks!

So every year I grow the classics that I can use in the kitchen. Serrano, cayenne, habanero, fresno etc. but I’m interested in growing more unique varieties. I checked out White Hot Peppers but I’m a bit overwhelmed by all the different varieties that are available.

I’m looking for some new varieties that are possibly not too difficult to grow, maybe a prolific grower, or something that has a unique flavor or maybe a variety that just looks cool.

What are your favorite peppers that have become a must grow in your garden?

I just received these seeds from Matthew Arthur! Thank you very much to him! I don't know what kind they are though, any ideas? Thank you very much in advance!

(Oc) Nothing fancy but I saw spicy salt at a spice store yesterday and I had to try it with my bhuts, reapers, and pineapples ground uniformly in a motar and pestal. Would highly recommend!

JK! I don’t recommend it! It was a Birthday drink at a restaurant.. A complete waste of a pepper! I didn’t send it back immediately to not ruin the bday vibes mood (and since my daughter was pretending to also be enjoying it, probably for the same reason I wasn’t sending it back and probably because she picked it and I joined her on the margarita selection)….

Not sure where it came from but free defences are always welcome

i cut a green cayenne pepper while preparing food, washed my hand with dish soap, i thought that my hands were clean, but my dick is burning now

I recently came to college and I was excited to move to a moderately sized city because there'd be more places to buy hot peppers. However, for some strange reason, people generally don't want to purchase food that is made with the intent to cause them pain! I can't find anywhere that just sells entire peppers hotter than Jalepenos! Closest place I can find charges $20 for a pound of Habeneros and it's a like, two hour walk away!

So screw it: how difficult and/or implausible would it be to grow them myself? I was thinking of getting a little fancy (probably extremely overpriced) indoor grow-box. My dorm has a fairly large amount of space (about 3.5' x 4' x 6') to put one. I'd be fine with just a single pepper plant; it's not like I want to be popping back Carolina Reapers every day for breakfast.

Can any recommend a guide or a specific grow-box to do so?

Backstory: I live in Thailand and planted three plants into one big concrete-ring-turned-flowerbed. It was crazy hot last year, all sun and no rain for 6-7 months I really didn't think they were going to make it. It's now one year later, the plants are suddenly blooming like it's no tomorrow and I don't remember what they are . I thought they were all the same.

TL;DR I planted some plants a year, don't remember what it was.

Can anyone help? Also, should I maybe wait with the green/black ones?

I am trying to find an Australian store to buy Peri Peri (C. Frutescens) seeds from. I have tried a couple different sites and they don't appear to be true Peri Peris (the chillies look different and the flowers are purely white like C. Annum).

Any suggestions?

I keep picking off the flower buds weekly because there’s a long growing season ahead and want the plants to grow to at least 4 feet but I don’t understand why they keep producing flowers instead of using energy to grow leaves and branches? Any help would be appreciated.
