I just paid a night visit to my garden, and man oh man are they loaded {its easier to see them at night because they are glossy}
reapers are very full, I been keeping up with fleabay and they are getting 50 bucks for a small flat rate box, that's just crazy, 20 bucks plus shipping for 5 peppers, I probably have 1,000 easy
red and yellow ghost are coming in, first run usually are smaller and I wont sell them because I only sell what I feel best represent the strain
I am particularly excited about my hybrids, this is my second year and third generation of a ghost and reaper x breed, they are huge ghost peppers with tails, 4 more generations and I have a stable viable "sellable" unique pepper, I will have it tested for scoville units, wish me luck
Dan, let me know when the Ghost are ready...thx
I still have a good bit of the ghost powder U sent me last year.That stuff goes a LOOOooong way.Thanks again 1911.

My peppers, all except the banana and jalape?o, are looking weak right now. I also had to pull up most of my summer squash because I think it has black rot. I was looking forward to some good yellow squash. I got to eat a few and maybe I'll get a few more but the majority are gone.
with all the moisture it typical to get black spot, about 10 of my plants got it, neem oil is all natural and it takes care of it quick, along with rust, powdery mildew, spidermites and aphids
All my stuff is in pots, lots of em. I have a bunch of various peppers, and several are a couple years old. Those put out peppers, months ago. Last year, my little, yellow, Habaneros tasted fantastically, but were almost heat-less. I think this yr will be my first, successful,full sized, tomatoes in pots. I got Big Boy plants due to some discussion, maybe here.
I have a few that I indoor and replants outside each year, those are rocking, just not enough to supply anyone but me
peppers don't container well due to the fact they like cooler roots, I have a 3 year old ghost that I did not replant this year, there is an extreme difference in its peppers vs the ones in the ground, that's why I use silver mulch , it keeps the roots cool and requires half the water
let me know when the reapers are ready[}:)]
I cut them with a razor to eat slivers with cheese.
Wife and I saved some much milder banana peppers tonight fellow was on his riding mower cutting them down. Wife stopped and saved what was left. I can't imagine why he would grow them and then mow em under but he said he was threw with them.
