I've had good success with the PuckerButt Pepper Company in South Carolina. Ed Currie, the owner, and his staff have corresponded with me a few times helping me I.D. a superhot I was growing and Ed actually sent me a dozen Carolina Reapers alive and fresh to play around with. They have a good seed collection and Ed is always adding new hybrids he has developed on his farm. I successfully grew his Chocolate Bhutlah and that pepper can hurt you! I had good germination rates and successful harvests from most of what I ordered and they grew true to label unlike many I've ordered elsewhere.

Here are 3 additional high-quality seed sources on the US East Coast, and one more mixed that I've ordered from at least twice. All of these carry peppers along with many other vegetable seeds. They do not have all the trendiest superhots, but they have respectable variety and good quality. 1) Fedco, Maine 2) Southern Exposure, Virginia 3) Eden Brothers, North Carolina. 4) Reimer, Virginia has some unusual pepper varieties, but some of their pepper seeds have had poor germination -- likely due to being too old by the time I bought them. However, they have perhaps the largest selection of Tomato seeds I've ever seen and their tomato seed quality is good. Some of the big commercial seed companies like Burpee and Ferry-Morse do have good-quality products, but usually limited to very mainstream varieties. I'm particularly fond of Burpee "Big Thai" as it is a very prolific and vigorous Cayenne-style pepper (despite the name).

I can honestly say, if I had not met Pickles, Townshend, or Richblood I would likely have not made very many attempts at hybridizing peppers myself. From UFO to C3PO it has been a learning experience. Hippy Seeds is one of my favorite places for seeds and their Scarlett's Chili hybridized by Graeme Chaplin is the source of the genetics behind my own variegated Poblano and Jalapeno genetics. Locopica is one of my personal favorites right now when it comes to juicy hot peppers, but this is my first year growing it in full sun. So much diversity in that one. Townshend is another vendor to watch out for if you want some real beauties, but the truth is there are so many sources of seeds and so many varieties it can be hard to pick. For me at least, it is all about the beauty of the peppers and the taste. I have to have it all!. I am thankful for everything I have learned from the pepper community and there is a lot to learn~

Based on your advice, I washed my plants, washed their roots, and repotted them with clean soil to bring them indoors for the winter. For my large plants (I have a kaffir lime tree), I couldn't so I sprayed it with neem oil. All in the hopes of not bringing in bugs. Well, that didn't work. Stayed bug free for several weeks but eventually, the fungus gnats started coming fast and furious. I tried suggestions I read on the internet: apple cider vinegar, apple juice. None worked. Then, by accident I discovered they are drawn to dried shitake mushrooms rehydrating in water (I was prepping them for a meal). So, I've been laying these near the plants and around other spots in the house. They are now almost all eliminated. I suppose it's not surprising they like shitake essence since they ARE fungus gnats.

I'll have to try rehydrating mushrooms! Do you use them as bait and then take them away from your plants after some time? Meanwhile I have definitely had good results with the yellow sticky gnat traps, both as detectors and mitigation for fungus gnats -- they are drawn to the color yellow. These are inexpensive and easy to use.
@longhaulblue
2 жыл бұрын
@@davidniemi6553 I soak 3-4 dried shitakes in a small bowl of water placed near my plants. The gnats drown in the water. I changed out the trap every 4 days or so when it starts smelling rich. Seems even the gnats avoid it then. Lol. The first bowl of water was full of drowned gnats. Subsequent bowls had fewer but then I also encountered fewer flying around. Are your yellow sticky traps flypaper? Can you provide a link? Thanks.
@davidniemi6553
2 жыл бұрын
A follow-up -- I used the shitake=in-water technique for one course of 5 days. It definitely does work, though not dramatically better than yellow sticky gnat traps, there are tradeoffs. It works best in a small clear or white bowl so you can easily see the gnats. Shitake bits are probably cheaper, but the yellow traps last longer. The biggest downside to the yellow traps is that you can really only use them effectively in a big pot, while a little bowl with a mushroom bit can go anywhere. I think I see more than one kind or size of gnat, and it is very possible I am catching small gnats in the mushroom water I can't see well. So thanks Ken, this is a worthy technique and probably even better in a combination.
@longhaulblue

@@davidniemi6553 I placed an order for the yellow stickies based on your comments. Shitake is expensive so I thought I'd try the traps. I tried the wine someone suggested. Nada. Maybe I drink the wrong kind of wine. Lol! Another interesting tidbit I read is to cover the soil in your pot with a layer of rocks. The person was using the yellow traps but apparently eliminated the gnats when she added the rocks. I'll probably try the shitake and yellow trap combo. Thanks Dave for reporting back.
