great tip on the turkey! screenshotted to remember that one

Gary B I wouldn’t have thought of that, great information 👍🏼

That sounds awesome! I got to remember this!

My grandfather used to have several chiltepin plants and he would harvest them, let them dry outside, and then grind them up in his old fashioned hand crank coffee grinder. He would keep the powder in a silver snuff box that had belonged to his grandfather that he brought with him when they moved from Wales to Texas.

Yes ma'am. I live in Zone 8B, south Georgia and it's crazy because my peppers always take off in the fall and winter here. 🌶️😋

Very little maintenance? They require alot of maintenance.

@@armandoavila7079 They grow wild in the desert.

I dont think these grow wild in Oaxaca

Thats a different variety

You spell it that way, but it’s not pronounced that way. Least I spell it that way. But you pronounce it chili-te-pin

RGV representing or what!

@@chasintails2179 in Sinaloa they're known as piquin or chiltepin. I grew up hearing and using the name piquin though.

Does it die in winter?

ogadl ogadl Thank you so much for your support of our work!

1fanger how far north are you? I really want to grow hot peppers in Maine.

We are in northeast PA. Pretty severe winters, occasionally. Maine is pretty cool, in regards to gardening. Maine potatoes are common, because you have short but intense solar activity. I know a guy who grows all kinds of stuff in Alaska under hoop houses under plastic sheeting. Just remember that peppers are a tropical plant. They love heat.

1fanger with the short growing season both hoophouses and greenhouses will be important to my gardening success. I’ll soon be ready to do some trial and error sessions.

Good luck.

Yes, this legendary pepper is very popular in TX!

Where ya at bro

I got a wild strain that I grew from seed she’s good hot heat

Einstein Alberto yea that’s cool there still green right now u can eat em but they peak when they turn red and that’s when I get seeds never done it bro how would u recommend sending them

Hi, I don't think they said hotter than the ghost pepper? It is hotter than a jalapeno, though

Hi, Gayla. I just re-watched the video. OOPS! You are correct. Michelle said it was hotter than Jalapeño. Ghost Pepper was mentioned next.... which is where I goofed. Have a great day. Best wishes from Kate.

@@TalkingThreadsMedia I am just glad it isn't that hot because I want to try it and there's no way I could handle uotter than ghost pepper, lol. Here in the PAC NW, I didn't get my chilis to ripen this year and I am hoping I would have better luck with such a small pepper so I can make homemade pepper sauce. Take care!

Hello again... Nope, my Canary Bell peppers did not reach maturity this year, either! I had 58 plants... Here in Olympia, we had a long, cold, wet spring... and then an earlier than normal hard frost (10/8, 9 & 10) -- followed by a greater than normal amount of rain. This year was really tough! I look forward to giving it another "go" next year. Good luck to you next year, as well! Best wishes, Kate - Olympia, WA

Hi, Amy. Thank you. Yes...let's hope next year is better! Best wishes from Kate.

Chelsey Hartmann chile Pequín and chiltepin are similar but the shape is a little different. Pequín are conical, chiltepin are more round.

Perhaps Guatemalans or El Salvadorans taught your region or community that name. Chile petín is one of many names. I have noticed some are naturally more round or more elongated with this variety of chile pepper

The seeds are of a stable variety. The plants used to grow our seeds are selected from wild plants to mirror as much as possible the characteristics the plant had before domestication!

Amen

Hi Tyler. They’re not for sale yet but they will be soon! Keep checking back.

@@RareSeedsBC I wondered why there wasn't a link to it. :)

you want some seeds? give me a text I'll send you a shit ton, they're everywhere out here. 362 571 1757. leave your name and I'll call you back

and bs. my plants are growing like trees. most are very short simply because cows chew them down and spread the seed. which obviously isn't a bad thing because in the agricultural or gardening world we would refer to it as pinching back the tops to make them bushier, thereby creating more sets of blooms, but then you can also propogate by cuttings so to each his own.

no offense. I love rare seeds co., but it spreads seed through birds chickens, and cows, most especially cows. as far as I've seen in my lifetime in the south. most white Americans kill the plants or weed whack them, not realizing how much they are worth per plant. they survive every winter, even being frozen and will pop back up in the spring.

4philipp they'll make it inside or in a garage with a grow light and deep mulch. they'll sprout out in the spring. or you can grow them year round indoors with no issue. they ripen better with full sunlight..to make then hotter water them less.

if you want some whole peppers hit me up 361 571 1757. they grow wild all over in my town of shiner tx. I've transplanted a bunch from the nearby ranches and open land in the area. mine are like trees.

and you're lucky btw. after living in Texas and Indiana most of my life, and visiting most of the US, Maine was the one place I traveled to that I said holy shit. I want to live here until I die. it's beautiful. such a diverse ecosystem. and so green.

361 571 1757. send me a text or look me up on facebook. I'm all about sharing seeds. I harvest wild plants often out here after realizing the native are more disease resistant and more resistant to climate. I can hook you up with wild blackberrie plants which we refer to as dewberries here in the south, which are thorned, so they rarely get destroyed by birds, and we have wild walking Egyptian onions which set bulbettes on their tops are flowering plus the onion below ground. they spread super quickly, and we have the wild peppers as well. not all areas have them but I've noticed anywhere with cattle or ranch land that hasn't been sprayed by intense herbicides, and they're everywhere. they can be hard to germinate. but I think it depends on the soil mostly as I've had good success. if you want something let me know. I'm a stay at home mom and a horticulture agriculture nerd. I've never sold anything but I see the taste of the south is become popular, as is natives, and I'm out in the fields anyway may as well spread the wealth.

Chile Pequin, chile del monte, bird bush, chiltepin chile petín...are all names of this plant - there are other names depending upon the region/country. Taxonomically, it is classified within variety glabriusculum of the species Capsicum annuum.
