I have amarillo peppers which are extremely hot peppers.I can send you a fresh pod and you can dry it yourself?

i went dove hunting last year. southeast of kingsville tx.behind the lodge was the chiltepin bush all aglow with it's green and orange and red delights. i picked about 30 pods and brought them home to dry. sept. 2011 to mar. 2012.planted them about 1/2" and watered good. least to say, now i have more peppers than i can ever eat. seems as though all sprouted. wow! i usually cut them open with latex gloves on and take out the seeds for next years rows of plantings. they are just hot enough for me to stand ,without adding the seeds to do damage. will later on warm up the vinagar and bottle them next seasons prolific growth. going back to texas this year and will look again . what a treat this is .

if you want to purchase I know an internet seller that has the most common varieties (sweet, mild, hot) at the most reasonable prices ($1.00 to $1.25 per pack). Just search "sample seeds dot com and then go to pepper seeds page. Shipping is also super reasonable. Having said that, you may be able fo find a lot of seeds on the rack at the bog box stores. I got most of my seeds from store bought fresh/dried peppers, some from BBS and couple from generous GW members at this forum. But if I had to order, I would go to ssdotcom.

When Andy-in-NYC posted "I can't figure out how to create/send a private message." I tried & couldn't figure it out either. So when Texas Grower posted "To send a PM, just click on the user's name, then there should be a button on the right that says Message." I thought aha - easy enough! But it wasn't there? So I looked at a few others and some did & some didn't. A little more research turned up this from early '15, Can you message me or anyone else????? with a MOD reply: Emily H Hi All, wanted to make sure you all knew that we've made a change to how messaging works and you can now allow messages from anyone (not just people you follow) by changing the setting in your profile.
