A friend’s father grew hot pepper varieties from all over the world. There were many which would eat jalapenos for lunch and could have been used to strip paint from metal.
If she had planted Ghost Peppers, she would have planted the whole garden with them. Then if she could squeeze some of the other veggies in her flower beds, that would have to make do.
Our garden plans for this summer – try to get someone to get rid of the poison ivy we didn’t kill at the beginning of the last spring when we normally do, to keep it from growing any bigger, and also someone else to get rid of the multiple weed trees which grew last year in the same backyard and who do we get first.
We have little to no grass in front of the house and since we only went out to take out the mail and the few deliveries of items we gave up and ordered – food – a big mistake as always with deliveries, we never walked into or thought about the backyard until late June when husband needed something from the garage, which sits behind our house.
We used to grow vegetables back there – but they came ripe while we were on summer vacation (back then had to go when husband’s agency was closed for vacation). His dad would take the ripe vegetables for him and MIL to have when he came by to pick up mail. Then his dad died and the vegetables would just sit there and rot – so he stopped growing them. I finally used up the last of the basil from the freezer about 10 years after we stopped growing it.

Agree with momofalex7 above.
My wife and her daughter – love their jalapeños, but both have gotten such bad tummies they can no longer eat them.

Jalapeños are for the weak, Rose. Switch to serranos.

I have to plant my Jalepeño right today!
exness Premium Member over 3 years ago
Peppers seem to be the easiest thing for me to grow, but unfortunately the husband thinks I’m trying to kill him if I cook with them.

pomegranate jalapeno jelly – the BOMB

Jalapenos aren’t that hot. There are several other varieties of peppers that make a jalapeno seem as mild as mother’s milk.

How can anyone stand to eat this stuff?

Rose, there are way better peppers than jalapenos to try. Plant some pequine, some big Jim and maybe some habanero as well.

Rose certainly loves Hot peppers! :^)

That’s cause she like it’s it hot and spicy

Just wimpy jalapenos? Why not some HOT peppers? I’ve grown serrano, habanero, Thai bird peppers… the GOOD stuff!

Instead of 16 regular Hot Pepper rows, Plant 8 Carolina Reaper rows.

One Anaheim pepper plant is all we need for the whole season.

Neither of us eats spicy food – ick.
