Don't touch your tip after touching them.

My brother used to grow them alot, I shall ask him...

Any other Gardening tips you might be after? I do know some, just not up on my chillis.

I'M NOT POSITIVELY, but I think chilis, depending on the damn variety, might be simple enough to grown like inside your house or apartment or whatever.

Also: Maybe I'm wrong.

One time I grew a bonerg.

Chilis will grow in alot of places and in alot of soil types (He's right up there about miracle grow though, I hear nothing but bad about that, cheap Store brand i've found to usually be the best).

It depends what you're growing really... each one will want something different, some like dry soil with lots of humidity, some like moist soil and lots of heat but they're pretty hardy and will grow in most places.

My basic way of growing anything i'm not sure of... is store brand soil and dilluted Tomato Feed (After the first 2-3 weeks)... it basically works on all fruits i've found and if they don't seem to like it... stop using it, they'll get better.

Afterwards, the best thing you can do is to try them and make your own chili powder/flakes and then stick some fresh in the freezer or else like McSpunkle, you wont get through them.

I hear nothing bad bad about it either, but the shit still sucks! ;)


BUT SUPER CEREAL:

I have a nice pachira (often called a "money tree") plant that has an elegant braided double trunk kinda deal all up in its ass and like it was FINE even after my cat knocked it over twice. Then I repotted it in a bigger pot so it could continue its verdant journey but then the lady at the store was like "Here, MiracleGro." and was "Uhhhhhhh..." but I bought it anyway like a fartlicker and, while it's been about a year, my poor pachira is dying a slow and painful death. Plus I never had dumbass little flying BUGS in my apartment until after I got the 'Gro.

Fuck you Monsanto!

p.s. I tried to type "MONSANTO" into Google and my fingers automatically typed "MONTENDO". :dance:

you're goal obviously wasn't to make hotsauce. like a completely unreasonable amount of it.

i'm trying to make some blends and get recipes together and perfect some flavour.
