A friend has a big plant of some unknown variety in his glasshouse which is doing very well. I grew some Thai ones one year, I like them because the chillies point upwards. I think I still have a few in the freezer. We went to a food show today (one of those things where you try to eat your entry fee in free samples). A chilli company had a couple of bhut jolokias there, I could have bought one for a couple of dollars but common-sense won that battle pretty fast. The decision was helped by the state of my mouth after a tiny taste of a fairly mild jalapeño sauce. I'm such a lightweight now... so glad there were yoghurt samples a couple of stands down :) Cheers, Dave -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
