Default Peppers 2014 growout

OK, I finalized my pepper list (but I think I need to make the list smaller!)

http://tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/T...r_Growout_List

So excited about growing some peppers I got from South Africa. I know it will be a big stretch to convince them to produce in our cool climate, but I could be quite persuading at times, so hopefully they'll be OK

This is a largest list of hot peppers we even planned to grow.

Stan and I discovered the deliciousness of the hot peppers relatively recently, and now we are all over growing more - for our ajika paste, for drying, or using fresh. Mmmmm... so good!

Our hot tomato sauce is a big hit in the neighborhood and among our friends.

So I guess there is enough justification for the insanity! LOL

wow! that is quite a list Tania
I am growing only a few but I am looking forward to trying some new ones. I don't grow any superhots, call me a wuss I guess but I Like to eat what I grow and I can't eat those. I don't grow anything hotter than a cayenne as they are plenty hot enough for me. Good luck with your peppers I hope for lots of warm sunshine for them and you too!

Thank you Karen! Warm and sunny wishes to you too

I find that the superhots are so aromatic when dried, and we use them fresh for ajika paste - they really make it so delicious. The paste will not be too hot if sweet peppers are also added, so this is how we manage the heat.

That's what am going to find out...I decided as I have the room, I would grow all the NuMex, New Mexico chilies at one time so I can compare them. I actually have 2 more that I had not added to my list:
NuMex Mesa
Numex R Naky

I want to compare production-size-flavor-heat (primarily chili powder) and which make the best peppers for ristras (size-dried color-rapid drying) Not growing any tomatoes this year so I thought this might be an interesting comparison. I am also growing about 20 different varieties of Cayenne from around the word for the same reason(s).

I thought the Ristras (which were a HUGE hit as Christmas gifts) and homemade "meat rub"
would make nice gifts for everyone this year. Am also going to try making chili pepper wreaths.

Awesome gift idea, brokenbar! We have been giving out small jars of our ajika paste (which also works as a meat rub), and folks loved it.

You have a great list! Some of the peppers on your list we already grew and loved - i.e., Guajillo, both Cayenne Long types (I loved the thick one better, as it was a better producer in our garden), Purple Jalapeno, Giant Marconi, and Big Bertha F1 (was not very impressive in our garden).

I will be very interested to know about the results of your NuMex growouts.

Thank you Elise!

My mouth does not water only because we still have a fridge half full with ajika jars, which is a lovely way to preserve fresh pepper. I think once we finish all these, I will be so looking forward to the new crop!

Tried the Heritage Big Jim and 6-4 last couple of years and enjoyed them immensely. The Joe E Parker was excellent too.

I've tried and liked them them too, but am wondering what the difference is between them and Hatch peppers.

I have seed for a handful of Mexican peppers that I received in a swap last year, but don't know much about them. As far as I could tell from scanty info on the internet they are a bit hotter than the ones I grew last year.
Mary, you probably know them although they're not on your grow list.

Puya
Macho
Japone
Cascabel
Guarito (?Guerito is described as a small yellow pickler)

No idea if these are late or early, large plants or small, nor what to really expect in the taste or heat department. But hot, for sure.

Also new this year will be:
Antohi Romanian
Trinidad Perfume
Lipstick
Frank's

I have to grow some favourites, however many I can manage: Jimmy Nardello, Santa Fe Grande, Guajillo, from last year for sure, Petit Marseillais and Bulgarian Carrot from two years ago. And Early Jalapeno, I can't get away without em. And.... maybe that's all for this year. I forgot Italian Pepperoncini, maybe a few more.

This a good site for info.

http://www.g6csy.net/chile/database.html

I have already started my super hots, because they take a long time to fruit. Usually, late September.

As of now these have sprouted.

Trinidad Doulagh
Trinidad Moruga
Aji Largo
Cambuci
Yellow Manzano
Black Habanero
Red Jalapeno
Hawaiian Sweet Hot
7Pot Sand Pebbles
Peruvian Creole

The only one that is taking time to sprout is the Black Naga, which is typical for this one.

Good Luck with yours.

Alex
