We got gypped by FIFA for the 2022 World Cup, the cricket team is shite, the rugby union/league teams are rubbish and we have Bon Jovi, U2 and someone called Jay-Zee touring. Oh and Beyonc-ay? Some chick called Opera is here, and she met with the Prime Minister, hugged a Koala, saw a crocodile...

2010/11 Shoved into 10lt pots today as an experiment - an outdoor almost hydro setup.... if that makes sense, nowt else will! Each update a song lyric. It makes perfect sense if you read it pished. :cool: http://tooninozchilli.blogspot.com/ cheers!

Haven't seen a thread on this sauce, so I'll kick things off. Met Tony and Janelle today and they were kind enough to give me a bottle of their 'Yikes' Habanero based sauce (and the delicious smelling 'Strawbz' dessert sauce...). I kept smelling the aroma, and couldn't pin down what seemed...

Finally today I got my hands on some seeds that Patrick sent me nearly 3 weeks ago. The parcel had raised suspicion, re-routed to Sydney, and opened. They threw a couple of pamphlets in, and the opening line on one is "DO NOT send plants or plant material, or animal matter..." Then they neatly...

I'm in a townhouse type set-up with little garden and not a great deal of space. Looked at 3-4 plants in large pot, a few at my brothers (garden) and even a few at the ex-wifes.. Just seemed a little too much like hard work. So, I spoke to the chemist at Growth Technologies in WA last week and...

I couldn't wait til Nov 11 when its released in theatres.... :oops: ...and Ive already watched it way too many times in the past week. I'll still go see it on the big screen tho' Anyone else seen it yet?

With the wet and gloomy weather we are getting recently, day temps around 24-25C (77F), Ive noticed that about 6-7 pots have a brown fungus on top of the soil. Its been present fro 3 days, no problems to the seedlings themselves and I'm not concerned, but curious. It looks like fine instant...

An ad featuring some of the New Zealand rugby team, The All Blacks. Sorry, couldn't find one with subtitles. :cool:

These are seedlings at this stage and I'll hang on to them for at least another few weeks to ensure they are healthy and powering along. They are currently outdoors all day, indoors at night. In 100mm pots now, so post is outta the question! These estimates are based on whats going strong as...

Only around 20 of each (from pods given to me by Novacastrian) Have had great early success with the Chocs and Douglahs (Douglahs close to 100%?). Happy to split it down the middle for a cpl of people? Prefer it sent within Australia too. I'm cheap. :) PM me and I'll get on to you. cheers, John

Ive been playing around with slow smoking on a kettle and wondering if I could gently roast pods so that they have a crisp skin... piercing, and adding to a oil/vinegar mix. Would they retain a decent shape, or still turn to mush? :) More a curiosity thing...

Would put this in the Events area, but it's not an event, just a proposal. This will take a while, so bear with me.... Ok, my idea was a Chilli festival for Brisbane, somewhere centrally located that already has the facilities to host the event. Somewhere that had good access to public...

I've been sending a few bits and pieces overseas and Ive got a few questions...... :) Sent some seeds to (and received some from) Aji Chombo in the UK. But I got to thinking that it would be easier and gooder-er to send some fresh pods via International Express Post. The site mentions not...

Thought I'd share this.... My brother shouted me a flight in an old WWII Tiger Moth yesterday...one of the most epic things I've done. I suspected it would be and even laid off the piss the night before! haha A Good Move. Anyway, for anyone on here that's in South East Queensland, or if you...

Hey, I bought these as 'Gambia Red Habs', but I can't find much info on them on the interwebs. The only info Ive found is on US-based sites. Can anyone shed some light on them? Here's a cpl of pics (not the best, but it's windy!); cheers, John

I never seem to have a great deal of success with pickling my chillis. They do the job, which is the bottom line, but they are usually a soggy mess. I soak them first in a brine solution, sterilised jars etc, but? The brine solution. I was told to use a "pickling salt", but no-one had ever...

Hey all, Another Aussie. Looks like a good, busy site and I can't wait to get stuck in. I only grow for my needs and that of friends, and at the moment I have these on the cook; 7 pot Orange Hab (3 seasons strong, and will be Bonsai/bonchi after this one!) Hungarian Hot wax (same as above...
