Plants (chili plants you dirty minds), and a question

[leary]

Wasn't quite sure where to post this, but i grow pepper plants. Over the winters here in west virginia, i bring them inside. I have noticed that this winter, they have done better than ever inside. The only thing that is different is that there is no cigarette smoke in the house anymore. I am wondering what exactly isn't choking my peppers (habenaros and the infamous naga jooklia (ghost pepper)). any input would be appriciated

Very cool,
I think the Bhut Jolokia like the extra humidity offered by a nice VG vape, but I don't know about the Naga variety! Ha, ha, ha! JK.
It may be the lack of smoke, or the increase in humidity, which is probably negligible, unless you vape A LOT!

lol. the naga likes the same humidity as the bhut. so i guess i can thank bwb and ave for helping my peppers. hehe. I am wondering more about the chems though. i know that nitrogen has a big impact on chilis.

Okay, I have to ask this, exactly what do you do with the naga? Just thinking about it is making me run for a fire extinguisher.

pop them in the smoker for a few days and make some awesome chipolte powder.

Why do they call it 'ghost pepper'?

not really sure, but i have seen people turn ghost white after eating one, and mine are kind of weak, guessing they are in the 800K scoville range.

I imagine there are a lot of things not choking your peppers... how hard are they to grow by the way? We love hot peppers and the plants are beautiful.

Maybe cause it sneaks up on you then gets you good. And when you think the bite is all over it gets you again tomorrow.

I remember reading somewhere that tobacco is "poisonous" to tomato and pepper plants. Something like that. Must google.

The tobacco mosaic virus (which can survive the tobacco drying and curing process) can affect pepper and tomato plants which may be what you are thinking of there.

The naga's are picky about heat and humidity. habenaros are pretty easy in this region.
