New to forums but been growing veggies for 20 years. Really into tomatoes, peppers and beans. I love old time heirloom tomatoes but have quite a few newer ones too. I love growing super hot peppers but rarely eat them, I am a wuss when it comes to the heat levels.
I run a small seed shop. I am in the process of erecting a 24 x 45 hoop house. I am a huge fan of mutant peppers and have some pretty rare ones in my collection. And I am a tomato and pepper seed addict.

Welcome Forgottenheirlooms.
May I rate your addiction?
In your collection...
Tomatoes - 1,000 varieties, do you have more or less?
Peppers - 500 varieties, do you have more or less?
Beans - 250 varieties, do you have more or less?
You get a free pass if your answer is yes to all three, but you have no idea how many you really have.

Welcome!
Good to have you.
If you ever need to tone down the heat on a dish, try melting some cheese into it! You might be surprised how well it works. Cheese tastes great with hot peppers, too.
A hoop house sounds fun.

Welcome, if you don't eat the hot peppers what do you do with them. I grow more than I can eat and give away bunches, at least I do when I get to have a garden.

I do eat some. But most get ground into powder for consumption and selling. I give some away, and I sell small boxes of pods.
