Good Morning everyone,
I'm a very new transplant here, and learning my way around. It has been fun reading through the forums, and getting a feel of the people here. I am looking forward to meeting many of you in the days ahead. I know that so many of you who have years of experience have much to share and teach those of us who are newer to gardening.
I myself have been at this for 5 years, and each year is a learning experience. This year I have been blessed with an even larger growing area than the year before, and I plan to correct those errors that I had made last year.
Of the many plants that I grow, I would say that peppers are my favorite. (you could tell by the title, no?)
I began planting my pepper seed at the beginning of the month, and am presently at 31 varieties of both hots and sweets. I am not a 'chilihead', and believe that a hot pepper should add 'flavor' to a meal........not the insanity of fire;
thus far, these are the varieties that I have planted;
aji panca
long orange sweet
topepo
anaheim
basque
marconi
tepin
alma
scorpion
yellow bell
black prince
pasilla bajio
aji mango
aji amarillo
turkish sweet
cumra cherry
bishop's hat
dulce marron
7 pod white
criolla sella
red mushroom
marseillais
lemon drop
santa fe grande
thai hot
hot portugal
cajun mini bell
grenada
aji golden
chocolate pepper
When I totaled up my seed count, that is, what I had planted, it was over a thousand seeds! I think I will have a lot to sell and give away!
Anyhow, I am curious if any one you also have a love of the many varieties of peppers as I do.
