Thai peppers (Capsicum annuum) are considered by some to be the third hottest peppers in the world. Only haberneros and scotch bonnets are considered hotter.

Yeaaaaah. Not so much.

They are still very hot. My wife refuses to go into the kitchen when I make a stir fry because you can't stop from coughing due to the aromatics from thai peppers.

No doubt. But it's certainly not even close to the third hottest pepper in the world, I can think of three off the top of my head that are hotter.

I would love to know how to make my passion fruit vine grow. It's been about 3 inches since I planted it last spring.

I grew some passion fruit from seed about the same time as you. They currently are wildly different in size ranging from a 5' vine to a 3" seedling with two leaves. My guess on why they've turned out so different is the soil, the ones in airy mixes seem to have done better then the one plain (and fairly compacted) potting mix. Genetics also could be a factor, purple passion fruit are usually grown from cuttings or grafting so it's possible your seedling just got a bad batch of genes and is naturally stunted.

I would LOVE to grow me some Chayote squash. I hate most squash vegetables, but this is my most favorite vegetable. =]

I discovered Chayotes this summer, so delicious! My favourite way to eat them was cubed in a tangy cucumber salad. To me they taste a little like Granny Smith Apples.

I mostly eat them in a soup called Caldo de Res. The texture and flavor is so much different than any other vegetable I've had.

What can be done with prickly pear cactus...? Is that edible?
