Very nice, Josh! Are my eyes deceiving me, or are those ready to be thrown in the smoker? :)

Josh, it looks like you have enough heat there to last you through a good portion of the winter months.

It always amazes me how much later your growing season is than mine but it seems like your start isn't much different.

Hey, guys!

Mike, just on a plastic plant carrier for the pic. I definitely should smoke them!

Bruce, it's true, I really don't get my plants out much earlier, but sure do have a nice long Autumn.

Josh

How did those galapagos taste habjalokia? Don't feel too bad, sometimes we all go bust. My potatoes were a complete failure this year for some reason. How you go from hundreds of pounds to zilch in one year is a mystery to me. Moving forwards I will do all my smaller peppers in pots and just the larger, sweeter varieties in ground.

What will you do with yours Josh? Those are gorgeous! I have tons of chocolate bhuts frozen... I have no idea what to do with them. I already have tons of mashes and sauces and powders. Nothing wrong with another one I guess.

I once grew Thai chilies they were pretty hot and nice ghost peppers

I love Thai chiles....I eat more of them than any other pepper.

Hobby, I stil haven't decided what to do with all these peppers. Some dried, some frozen, some smoked and dried, some turned into jam, and hopefully some made into hot salt.

Josh

Nice Josh! Getting a lot of rain up there?

Kevin

Hey, Kevin!

Yes, we sure have been! Over 10 inches of rain in October.

Josh

Awesome! Not much down here, but the key to the drought is always going to be the snowpack and NorCal rain....so good deal. Btw, nice pods as always.

Kevin

Thanks! Yeah, we're excited about the copious rain and early snow. Hopefully it will continue. The good news is that many of our reservoirs are at capacity.

Josh

Hobby, the Galapagos has a nice flavor and decent heat they have a punch like a hot jalapeno or cayenne depends on which one I ate the range differed. I dried a few and they look like red peppercorns. I would imagine if I had more I would toss them in BBQ baked beans.

Josh I am glad you are getting the much needed rain in your area. Hopefully this is a sign to come and the end of a drought for you and south of your area.

Josh grows beautiful ghost peppers my old man grows them here in fl but they are smaller any tips?

Hey, thanks!

How are the peppers being grown?

Smaller pod size could be: Genetics, light source, container size, insufficient fertilizer, inconsistent watering....

Josh

The bigger the beard, the bigger the Ghost peppers.

That's funny, Bruce! Happy New Year! ;-)

Yah, and we all can now see, the Ghost Peppers are going to be monumental this coming season.

Being grown in 20 gallon pot miracle grow 1 every 2 weeks consistent water any and all tips appreciated

Don't over water and at 20 gallons, I think you have pot size covered.
