WHile writing on the hot sauce thread I realized I probably didn't post anything like this, here. Grow hot peppers. The hot ones tend to be compact (3'x2.5') and are not hard to grow indoors. [ link to www.pepperscale.com (secure)] Even if you do not like them, if you grow a small enough peppers, you can just swallow them to avoid the burn (going down...coming out...well, that's unique to every digestive tract!). Fill a sunny, S-SW-SE window with peppers. They are perennials (even bell peppers are but they are grown as annuals). WHY? Where are your vitamin C sources? Hot peppers are an excellent source of Vitamin C (higher then oranges). You do NOT want scurvy! [ link to www.timesnownews.com (secure)] I have grown (birds eye) them before and they fruit a lot. Less in the winter without supplemental lighting. Outdoors (where you can keep your peppers until it gets close to the last frost) they are self-pollinating but indoors I would suggest hand pollinating. (I won't embed the vid but here is a short how to) [ link to youtu.be (secure)] I just started a few seeds to grow in my kitchen window, and if need be will buy a full spectrum LED grow panel. We shall see. Odd moving from property to a condo! I'm going to order a mushroom syringe and grow oysters, got some basil going and might try and grow black pepper in a hanging basket! Quoting: Saint Lance the Odd from BC I like to grow Ancho/Poblano peppers. They are great for stuffing. Some years I get great yields, other years not so much. Last fall I had so many, I was giving them away. My plants were sagging with them. I told people to bring me a beer and pick as many as they wanted. Some did. I sold a box of them to a local grocery store (10 miles away) for $5 just so they didn't go to waste.
