Not at all!
Sorry about the misspelling..I'll fix it!!!
Well, that soil sounds like it will work well in pots. Just do the fertilizer thing, you should be fine!

Yeah sry omri...Wonder if I can use that santized sand you get at homedepot?.
Awesome, I'll get some chicken "waste" and urea.
I would have liked to try your desert sand, perhaps I'll have the chance someday.

The native soil here has a lot of gravel in it. Very small gravel, but it's pretty sandy too. It's hard to describe. Um....here...

I know...the picture is HUGE, but that's our landscape.
So pretty. :)
Here's some pictures of Hamra from wikipedia:

WOW!!!
Get some of that!!!!
Yeah, but only for Nagas (and future "large" plants).
For bent's "birdhab" I'll use potting soil.

Yeah the faded mountains, the end of the southern rockies. There are so many colors in the rocks out there, beautiful place. I live right next to Pikes Peak, tallest part of the Rockies.

Nice view. :)
Not my view, unfortunately

Scarecrow... That mountain isn't part of the Rockies. It's actually a small series of mountains called..."The Sandias" (go figure...).
But, it looks like our soil is about the same.
Just an hour for the sun to rise, and then I'll take some pictures of my view. :)

There's a sea on the other side, but it's too dark.
I'll take some more pictures when the sun is up.

Glad you liked it. :)
The sea view is way better, and I'll be taking pictures of it... really soon.

Now back to business.
Do you guys think the climate can affect the level of hotness and taste?

Absolutely! That's why there's discrepancies with the Scoville units of the Naga/Bhut.
Will my mediterranean climate help me, or just make it worst?

Do I have a mediterranean climate indoors? :shocked:

I don't know enough about your climate to say.
You need to consider day and nighttime temperatures, rainfall, and humidity.
While peppers tolerate a great deal of heat during the day, having a series of days with temperatures above 100F (37C) can adversely affect fruit set. We had two weeks in a row of above 100 degree days, and even with plenty of water, the peppers just weren't setting fruit. Of course, part of that could have been the nighttime temperature. If the temperatures stay above 75 to 80 F (24 to 26 C) at night they won't set much fruit.
Temperatures that are too cool can be just as bad, and the peppers that are produced in cool conditions aren't as hot. Daytime temperatures that are below 65 F (18 C) and night time temperatures below 55 to 60 (12 to 15C) can reduce fruit set.
Over watering can not only damage the plant, it can reduce the heat, and high humidity brings all kinds of fun molds and fungi.
So, what is your climate like?
Well this week it's pretty hot (73F - 86F), and somehow cloudy.
Not sure about the humidity.
I heard some good news, it's going to be a dry winter.
It's rare and not so good for the country's water supply, but it means more sun and less cold. :)
I originally thought it's going to be freezing (it's already a bit cooler than it was a month ago), but I guess I was wrong.

Your climate should be just fine. Windows open or not. :lol:
Just take care with the pots and the size of the plants.
Great, and if it will get a bit colder, just warm them up a bit?
