No Nagas, not yet, maybe next year...

Seems a waste of Habs on flies, does that really work?
How about Spider Mites?

Each year I always have a massive surplus of chillies (end up giving them away) so using 3 habeneros is nothing compared to losing a whole greenhouse full of chilli plants. You can also use really hot chilli powder mixed with water.

Yes it really does work (also add a couple of drops of washing up liquid into the solution). Most commercial insecticides will damage young chilli plants, which is why I use this method.

Not sure about spider mites but I can't see why not.

If you want any Dorset Naga seeds drop me a personal e-mail.

Hi pdtnc,

I am an enthusiastic chilli grower too,I have got a big collection of chilli varieties (and serious problems to avoid cross-pollination), moreover in my small terrace I grow a lot of curry related plants, curry leaf tree, lemongrass, several kinds of basils, coriander... i am even growing fenugreek between the orchards, which are the only non-edible plants i got (i am still wondering how they ended there and how they have avoided been pulled up in order to get more living space  ). Last week I sowed cayennes, orange habaneros, serranos and jalape?os and I have currently growing caribbean red habaneros and thai chillies to use in my curries (which are getting better really fast since i found this amazing site)

Regards
