TIP — you can take any pepper … carve out seed core & put in a lid to dry out on a window seal …. after a few days, simply plant in a row about 4 inches apart & mother nature will do rest 🙂
P.S. have made some awesome chili lately (Wolfs Authentic chili + baked-beans + peppers + cheese — in CROCKPOT 🙂 .. One recent impressive batch had about 7 habs in it … but just ONE ghost pepper will easily surpass — I can get used to the habs, but never the ghost (only 1 needed in huge crockpot — and have went up to 3 in past batches)[/b][/color]

https://www.tyler-farms.com/super-hot/%5B/b%5D%5B/size%5D%5B/color%5DHope you continue to enjoy all of your hot peppers CI. Looking at all the different types of pepper plants you have growing I’m going to have to start calling your beautiful property “Scoville Farms”. ;>)

A couple weeks ago ordered close to a dozen Fort Laramie strawberry plants from Hirts.com, and all are growing well in the garden.

and keep an eye out for SNAKES :woohoo:
P.S. a Texas favorite below (which would make excellent future avatar – lol
