    Chinese 5 Color

    I've been growing the Chinese 5 Color on and off since 2007. I received my original seed from a grower (fiedlermeister) who no longer posts on the forums.   Chinese 5 Color is not another name for Numex Twiight, I grow both. I suspect they're related. The 5 Color grows 2+ times taller and the...

    I Test The Takanostume Chilli - The Japanese "Hawk's Claw"

    Hi,   I've grown the Takanotsume for the past four or five years primarily as an ornamental, it's a great looking plant. The last few years I've dried the pods and flaked them for general semi-hot addition to recipes.   Here's a shot of a branch with half of the pods remaining.

    Chilhuacle Negro...Cascabel...color when ripe?

    Ripe Chilhuacle (chee-WAH-lee) Negro are dark brown. Think of little brown leather bell peppers.   I have a few ripe ones on a plant but it's too friggin cold out now to get a shot.

    Pro-Mix BX now without Mycorrhizae

    rabid48, yep, I know the packaging for BX... white with orange. The new shipment of BX locally was the new BX (black and silver) without Mycorrhizae. I was told they changed the formula. Potawie, I wasn't aware BX was sold without Mycorrhizae in the past. I've only been using it for five years...

    Pro-Mix BX now without Mycorrhizae

    Just got back from my friendly garden center and alas, Premier Tech (producers of my go to potting mix Pro-Mix BX) have decided to save a few cents and mess with the product formula by eliminating the inclusion of Mycorrhizae. Mycorrhizae was the reason I and I'm sure many many others purchased...
