Hot Peppers

[GrowLightGuy]

Most of these were started in January. Off to a great start. Habs, Ghost, Brain Strain and Trinidad Scorpion.

Wow you're pushing the HOT stuff.

For a few years I was putting Dave's Insanity sauce on almost everything but it's been years since then. Two years ago I did a bunch of jalapenos - 6 or 8 plants worth - and pickled them. That turned out really well both to not waste a lot of peppers and as a great snack during the winter.

This year I'm doing Havasu (F1) from Johnny's.

I wind up giving a lot of them away. As hot as these things are someone always has a friend of a friend that thinks they can handle the heat. lol

I won't even try the super hot ones. But I do use some habaneros.

Most people, myself included, tend to use just one for large batches of stuff like salsa and chili. It is quite an experience to take a bite of one raw. lol

I wanted to share a temporary greenhouse method I used last year for my peppers that worked really well. I put plastic over my pepper starts when I transplanted them last year and left them covered for about 6 weeks to give them a strong start. It was our best year ever for peppers so we did it again this year and I took photos to share in case anyone wants to try it for themselves

here is the before pic with plastic, sticks, plastic bottles, wood, and rocks.

here is sticks in the ground pointing out of the grow bed with plastic bottles to protect the plastic.

finally here it is with plastic over it weighted down with heavy objects and open for a photo op
