My main curiosity was soil biology and it’s role in growing the healthiest plants possible. In 1994 I planted some Thai Dragon peppers in our garden and my dad would dare me to try them before he would eat them. chinense pepper was at the age of 16. That fruity, smoky, citrusy burst, followed by an extreme heat, was unlike anything I had ever tasted in my garden before. This new world of flavors s

parked what would become a life long infatuation and set me on a quest, Traveling The World In Search of Peppers. Fast forward to present with nearly 30 years of cultivation experience, field collections abroad, trades and friendships made, the pepper community looks much different than it did back in the 1990’s. I’ve administrated some of the world’s largest cultivation forums and continue to share my passion with other pepper enthusiasts across various platforms. I now travel the world in search of my favorite pepper varieties from their region of origin. Nothing is more rewarding than hand picking peppers in each village, farm or hidden trail we discover on our adventures along the way. The people we meet and the friendships we make are what truly breathes life into our journey. The shared passion for peppers across so many different cultures may just be the key to understanding that we are all more alike than we realize.

My toxic trait is that I love I told you so’s. Especially when they are 7 years due. Especially when the amount of backpedaling and infighting among these people is so entertaining. Especially when there are reciepts.

Listen pepper community, you were duped. Not only by bad actors, but their cheerleaders as well. Make no mistake, this was intentional. Don’t let them off the hook. Demand better from your scene. Be smarter. 🌶️🧘‍♂️

Pepper Service Announcement: It’s still not time to start seeds yet. Use this time to learn what your pepper seedlings actually want. Spend the next couple of months buying proper lights, substrate, trays, and fertilizer instead of starting too early and torturing them.

In 2025, parts of south metro Atlanta saw 7+ week periods without rain. I took the opportunity to hang a massive pepper plant in the sun the entire time. Going to enjoy these sun-dried Twisty Town peppers!

I’ve been obsessed with learning more about Trinidadian food lately. Tonight I took on homemade baras, channa, mango chutney, shadow beni sauce, and peppa sauce. But I decided to go a step further! I turned doubles into triples! Add a bara and some protein to make a double a triple! I opted for slow roasted beef curry. Can’t wait to visit Trinidad and see how it stacks up to the real thing! It’s been a hit here tonight with my family.

The biggest pepper seed starting mistake I used to make was starting too early. I didn’t realize how quickly pepper plants actually grow when the RIGHT conditions are provided. I also didn’t understand that older, mal nourished plants never do better than younger, optimally grown plants. You do not need to start your germination process any sooner than 4-6 weeks before your intended plant out date. I made a video reviewing all the worst mistakes I’ve made over the last 30 years. Link in the comments section below, hope it helps.
