    in Grower Discussion

    Well it looks like John Nieuwenhoff's persistence and of coarse his WR have interest in growing peppers peaked across North America! Lots of people growing them this year. Way to go John

    Thanks Zeke, I may also get the record for the shortest lived heavy pepper record. I can't get over how many people are interested in growing them now, especially in the UK and Europe. 1000 grams is the next goal!

    Quite a few in the US too. Not everybody is quite as enthused though. First thing out of Cindy's mouth was, "but you just planted that back to grass last fall. haha, she's so funny.

    That's not grass, that's my cover crop!


    Oh well I'm sure you'll hear all about it at the patch tour this year.

    There's even a professional Dutch pepper grower trying them this year, but with his own seeds. I'm going with his seeds, John's and some Polish ones.
