Anyone Like Tabacco Peppers?

gogrow

confused
been transplanting a bunch of tabasco peppers this week in my spare time; my grandfather didnt pick all the peppers off the plants last year, and ended up with a cluster of about 500 plants. so i took a few clumps cause i couldnt see perfectly good plants go to waste. first shot is work left to do, the rest is work finished. assorted sizes, but most are between 4-6in; keepin about a 90% success rate thus far. dont know what the heck im gonna do with all of them yet though, havent thought that far.

i like peppers. i have been canning salsa for a couple of years and eating alot and giving out to friends. I dunno its something different i guess. :peace:
 
i planned on selling alot of them and keeping about 20 for myself for hot sauce experiments (watch out tabasco! lol) but i dont even know where to start with selling them; so i will probably just continue to landscape my yard with pepper bushes. they wont go to waste, thats for sure. what kind of peppers do you grow for your salsa?
 
Yeah its fun to play around making hot sauce. The salsa i make gets hotter the longer it sits so you gotta be careful when you make it or be ready for a tore up stomach haha...
 
Oh yeah,I love peppers! Some of my frenz think that i'm mex because i cook and use tabasco on almost everything. LOL! Yesterday i did plant some California Bellpeppers and some Sugar Baby Seedless Watermelons,and Sweet Basil to boot.
 
I do a hybrid super hot chili pepper & scotch bonnet....The chili I make a relish with maple syrup & pepper jelly with bonnets.....
 
For salsa, jalapeno is the way to go. Let's not forget Anaheim chili, even bell if one is not so adventurous.

Cayenne pepper and Louisiana are inseparable in my mind:
Frank's Red Hot
Louisiana Hot Sauce
Crystal Hot Sauce
Texas Pete
Tobasco Sauce
Trappey's Hot Sauce
 
I have a couple of exotic Tabasco type peppers called Bolivian Rainbow. I can only finish them during the Summer since they take quite a long time and I seldom have room for them in the grow room for that long. The flowers are purple and the fruits get all kinds of colors- hence the name-, but are primarily purple and red so far. They are of the species Capsicum Frutescens, which is Tabasco territory.

better late than never right? i agree with you on the habs; i learned that i dont like them either...tastes like a bitter chunk of wood with a badass bite; got a few of them growing, but i dont know what the hell i am gonna do with the peppers.

It makes pretty good bug juice.
#1 Pepper Spray

This works great for ants and other small pests.​

  • Boil 2 or 3 cups of water.
  • Add about ½ to 2/3 cup of chopped hot pepper. Let marinate for a few minutes.
  • Run the mixture thru a sieve to remove the peppers.
  • Put the liquid in a squirt bottle and use when necessary.
  • Be careful not to spray directly on foliage.
