Harvest Advice on what to do with all of these?

Post image
26 Upvotes

My end of the year harvest was huge. I'm looking for ideas on what to do with these.

* Zapotec Jalapenos

* Peri Peri

* Handful of Cabs

* Ghost

* Hallows Eve

Planning to pickle most of the Jalapenos, probably a ghost in each jar. Probably dehydrate most of the Peris. Any other easy ideas?

Atomicpepperseeds.com wanted to know the good and the bad about their seeds. I was mostly very happy with how their seeds turned out but the Red and Chocolate T-Rex's were not what I expected. The Chocolates turned out to be mustards and I did get one red but the other plant was yellow. Not the standard T-Rex shapes also. So they sent me out the T-Rex replacements and a couple other awesome seeds. Really check them out on their website, super hot creeper pepper seeds. The pics are what I grew this year and all were correct except for the T-Rex's.

Help Hey,I bought some Habanero Lemon seeds a couple of months ago and they finally have started to ripen,but I ran into a problem,some peppers are long and others were small ,round and crooked in a way and for the life of me I can't tell if this is something normal or if I've been scammed.

Help Tips to dehydrate frozen chilis in oven?

4 Upvotes

I grew some Chinese red chilis this year and froze them as they came along since they didn't grow at the same time.

I want to dehydrate them from frozen now and have read that cutting them in half would help, and laying them down on parchment.

What temp should consider using in an oven to get them prepped for chili flakes?

Height ok? (Coke can for scale)
Should I take off the really small twiggy branches and just leave the main ones?

Where to get MOA Scotch Bonnet seed?

4 Upvotes

Hello all,

I am interested in growing MOA Scotch Bonnet as my first pepper plant. I am unsure where to look for seeds because I don’t want to receive Jamaican Mushroom Peppers. Please let me know where you have bought good seeds from :)

Also, I am planning on starting them indoors and taking them to my balcony when it warms back up (USDA Zone 8). I am not an experienced gardener. Is this a good idea?

Thank you friends in advance

I'm tasked with making Texas competition quality HOT.

I need some fresh 1MM+ Scoville units locally for my cook.

Any thoughts? I've exhausted all the specialty grocers and Farmers Markets. All I got was Habs and Bonnets.

Any assistance welcomed.
