Tih2ho, capsicum extract acctually has no flavor. Just heat. I suppose it depends what your after but for me heat with out the flavor is pointless.



yes, little crystals aren't really a sauce just a source of heat, but if one was to mix it with perhaps other sauces and spices in say for example, a steak marinade then it makes everything worthwhile imo.

I've never understood why some people like chilli so much. Yeah maybe some mild stuff to add to food to make it a little spicy. That's good. But when there is so much where all you can taste is burning, I don't see the point.

It's a total aphrodesiac.The sex is just so much better after a nice chilli dinner. Although, I find that a medium chilli dinner is much more enjoyable with the afterdinner "excercise" then a mega hot chilli dish.

It works by releasing the andorphines from the brain to give that "feel good" pleasure.

It's also proven to be psychologically beneficial as a 'safe' risk for people to take. Living on the edge without any real chance of injury. That is, unless your method of consumption is to rub a split open chilli in and around your anus.

That's why gays should eat more chilli, at least then they'd know what their bunghole was supposed to be used for!

Thats looking very healthy, do you keep it inside over winter ? also what is it planted in, im finding potting mix is not really ideal, Think ill be going for the soil and compost mix for my next lot.

I have heaps of chili plants and love anything hot

Plants i have growing now

red savina habanero
Orange habanero
Bhut Jolokia
Butch T Scorp
Cayanne
Piquen
Tobasco
Big Jims

and a few other mild types, i have around 40 plants in total

My big Orange hab plant is real viscous, the older it gets the hotter the pods become
Also I have realized that you need to give them minimal water, to much and the pods taste bitter and wont be as hot

I was giving a goo tip a while back that works well, Chili plants love coffee grounds (full of nitrogen) and things like ants and aphids hate it

Im yet to sample the bhut and butch as its not time for them yet but im eager as

if you got a bottle of vodka sitting around drop a halved hab in the bottle and let it sit, it will give you a nice kick

potting mix chook poo and horse poo mix it up and let it sit for a few weeks before re-potting, your plant will go nuts

yep afids and ants love my bloody plants, i have tried the natural remedy (dishwashing liquid olive oil and water) but it really isn't that effective, i think i'm going to go for the real pestaside next. Also epsom salts and water sprayed on every second week is supposed to make them go off, i'll let you know. I have used fish emulsion (charlie carp) and it's pretty good. I also use a plant starter, which gives wicked root growth very fast .

I use charlie carp on my habs..They love it.
I also use a chemical insecticide but vary sparingly.

Not only do I have to contend with grasshoppers eating my chilli plants, but it seems my staffy cross has been pulling the fruit from my orange habaneros and eating them... certainly explains why there's usually one very runny dog turd to scoop up along with the others in the backyard.

hmm thinking about a heat mat, for germination. There's a few good cheap options about.
Does anyone have issues with cross pollination ? from fruiting plants.

I planted my Butch T seeds a couple of weeks ago in normal potting mix and still nothing popping up. I've got a feeling the mix was a bit too course for the little buggers to get through. sad.gif
I planted my Habs in the same sort of mix and didn't have any issues with them.

Nah mate the butch T's can take a while to pop up its pretty common. Seems some of the hotter species take a bit more time, Habs are pretty reliable and geezus i'll never run out of tai or kayens they grow like weeds. . . . and jalapenos sprout pretty fast awswell.

on a side note my radishes have been in for about 3 days they are an inch tall already and harvest is 4 to 6 weeks.
