Good idea. I tried to before with superhotchilies.com who I bought it from by replying to the emailed receipt for the seeds, but I got an error from my email app. This time, I looked up their email contact, and sent it to them with a photo. I also complained because none of the 10 Yellow 7-Pot Primo seeds I had on that same order germinated.

mike , I did the same thing with my pepper. I was calling it the Godfather and all the while I realized (well @cornne brought it to my attention) that it was not. SO after looking and finally figuring it out, it was actually the King Arthur.
I also bought seeds for the first time from them and many did not germinate.

Funny thing. I got a response to my email about Midnight last night. They said it wasn't orange. That it wasn't fully ripe. The first ones that were dime sized would turn that shade of orange and fall off. I took a picture of one that is ripe now and emailed him again. He asked about my germinating method.
This ought to be interesting. His (Jim Duffy, I'm guessing) sent it to me from his cell phone.

LOL mike, you got so many different seed varieties you can't keep them all straight. I guess you are going to have to have to plant the Bhutlah seeds now to see how they compare to your mystery peppers! |

It's time to close this down. They're not drinking water. They are developing a scum on the water. The peppers look OK, but I took the rest of them green. They are now in the dehydrator. The rest of all remaining Fall projects are now in the dehydrator. Onward and upward.

I don't know yet. Cleanup isn't as easy as it used to be. Pushing a vacuum is easy, but I can't move furniture anymore.
Let's just say I'm going to have to wait for a while. I need to hire some help, I'm afraid.

OK this is crazy. Three weeks ago I cut out the Scorpion pepper plants. With work and the nasty weather I haven't taken the time to clean up several gardens yet. I finally have a full weekend to do so. I started preparing to do the work tomorrow. I look at where the smaller of the scorpion pepper plants were, and a brand new plant is growing right from the stem of the old plant. It looks healthy, too. I haven't added any water or nutrients. Jeez!  |

Yes, but I'm not keeping it. It is time for a cleaning. The roots are fully developed from the old plant and I'm ready for something new. I can't move it either.
