Grant,
That's certainly the right variety of pepper for your setup and you should get some fairly hot and colourful peppers out of it. I've never grown that one. I've grown green peppers, jalapeno, new mexico, poblano and serrano. I can manage a garden fairly well, but I'd have to say I'm a better cook than gardener. Our current home came with a small pond so I've been water gardening.
"Organic" soil? That's a laugh and a half. And how do they manage to deem some seeds as organic and others not? The molecules that make up the seed are the same whether you use antiquated or modern methods of fertilization. It's a big head scratcher for me. And it's not like organic stuff is free of pesticides/herbicides. They are allowed to use chemicals produced from plant sources and heavy metals.
Actually I've been over to the UK 3 times. Always for the TT, but we also tour the main island each time. This was because you cannot rent a motorcycle on the IOM. However, it did allow us to tour the West Highlands of Scotland, Wales (twice), Darbyshire, Yorkshire Dales, Lake District and London (British Museum - WOW!). We're trying to get up enough money to go to the TT again (we'v been bitten by the bug), but hoping to find some way to swing a bike on the island since we've made lots of friends on our trips. We truly miss Real Ale Pubs, cheese toasties, sticky toffee pudding and the proper attitudes towards motorcycling that we find in the UK.
Agreed, Bikers at the TT are insane, but it's such a pleasant form of insanity. |
