Going to actually put some seeds in this weekend - several days of record high temps have warmed the soil and no sign of a hard cold snap here in SE PA. Earliest first planting for me by two weeks - and usually I don’t get anything in until early April.

Father, please lay your healing hands on Greeneyes and give guidance to her medical staff so she may be healed and allow her to be strong enough to return to her family and garden with us...

On another Board on this site , someone asked about mouse control in the garden..
My reply was :
I have grown Carolina Reapers (Hot peppers) and only handle them while wearing nitrile gloves .
#1 Grow the peppers from seed (hybrid) for economy reasons, or plants from a seedhouse, or shared seeds .
#2 Take peppers fruit (while wearing gloves), cut in quarters including seeds and place in 1 quart of water, glass jar ,
and place in the sun for 3 days (to let it work/ ferment) into the water.
#3 Strain out the liquid thru a sieve (no solids) and add 3-6 drops of liquid "Dawn Dish washing Liquid " (acts as a surfactant-> liquid spreader).
#4 With no solids , place the liquid (pepper juice concentrate/Dawn) into a sprayer and apply to surface and under surface leaves of plants and veggies to protect the plants.

The hot in the "hot" peppers is evaluated in "Scoville Units" of heat.
The "Heat is in the seeds, placenta, and meat of the various peppers. See below:
www.crazyhotseeds.com/top-10-worlds-hottest-peppers/
Top Ten Hottest Peppers In The World 2016

SHU = Scoville Heat Unit (A measure of Spiciness)
1. Carolina Reaper 2,200,000 SHU
2. Trinidad Moruga Scorpion 2,009,231 SHU
3. 7 Pot Douglah 1,853,936 SHU
4. 7 Pot Primo 1,469,000 SHU
5. Trinidad Scorpion “Butch T” 1,463,700 SHU
6. Naga Viper 1,349,000 SHU
7. Bhut Jolokia (Ghost Pepper) 1,041,427 SHU
8. 7 Pot Barrackpore ~1,000,000 SHU
9. 7 Pot Red (Giant) ~1,000,000 SHU
10. Red Savina Habanero 500,000 SHU

Wear nitrile gloves when screwing around with these peppers -> they can hurt you !!
Order seeds to 'grow your own',.. or to sell to others for income !
Never touch your eyes or face, even while wearing gloves as the capiscum (heat) travels easily !!
