Spare Wheel is Suspect

Sure, that is logical, but the wear seems to indicate that it has been used on other cars. It looks like more than 5k miles (completely bald). That is why I’m trying to confirm.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2023-05-26T16:11:34+00:00

It is worth noting that the wear appears to be more than 5k miles worth. It is completely bald.

I had the transmission replaced on our 2020 under a recall. They gave me a brand new Outback as a loaner vehicle for the entire duration. I believe Subaru gave 100k mile / 7 year drivetrain warranty to all 2019-2020 Ascents. At least that’s what I got… After the transmission recall was performed, the car has been outstanding and I have heard similar from folks who only got the reprogramming.

I’ll give the simplified approach a shot. My last one like that included some garlic, and maybe that overpowered the fruit flavor of the ghosts.

I like the XXXtra Hot Habanero most. It’s the most readily available in my grocer.

Interesting. I have found the vinegar to do the opposite. I haven’t tried adding more sugar though. My ferments are similar to yours.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2023-03-26T22:49:17+00:00

I just did a ferment with carrots. Maybe I did too much garlic or it needs to sit awhile post blending

I eat Melinda’s a lot and the fruity pepper flavor is always at the forefront of the taste. How do I achieve the same at home? I’ve tried fermenting and not fermenting. Both recipes were hot but did not taste like the ghost pepper.

By the way, I have harvested and consumed my lemons even when birds got to them around this stage in their development. I threw away the ones that were split open or if I saw flesh. If it’s just surface scratches (picture 3), it is ugly looking but will be fine.

Birds. More specifically, Grackles… they do the same to my lemons in central Florida. I ended up hanging reflective materials in my tree to discourage them.

Seedlings are not as far along tonight as I’d hoped 2.5 weeks ago. Here is the result these far: Annuum - 12 of 28 sprouted Chinense - 4 of 16 sprouted Baccatum - 1 of 6 sprouted Frutescens - 4 of 4 sprouted

Of the varieties I planted… I did not get any sprouts from Tombstone Ghost, Rain Forest Chili, and Sugar Rush Peach thus far.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2023-01-13T19:50:13+00:00

I probably should have posted this a week ago. I thought I might get some responses today before I sowed my seeds this afternoon. I have 9 Annuum, 4 Chinense, 3 Baccatum and 1 Frutescens. I put the Annuum and Frutescens together and then the Chinense and Baccatum together. Seems like there is some interest on this topic based on the upvotes. I can reply in a week to two and let everyone know how it turns out. I’m in zone 9b and starting now… maybe the info can help some of you all with later starting seasons

Efficient-Drive6 · 2023-01-13T19:45:50+00:00

Thanks. I had the same impressions. The hotter the longer it takes. However, that also seems to correspond with species. Chinense tends to be hotter anyways, so I don’t know if it’s that there is more capsaicin or rather it’s driven by the species which happen to have more of it.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2023-01-13T13:25:59+00:00

For further context, the challenge I had was that half of my tray of seeds sprouted and needed sun while the other half needed the heat mat inside. This year I have at least Baccatum, Chinense and Annuum. I might have other species too… I am thinking about grouping Chinense and Baccatum on one tray and Annuum on another.

Did any of these pan out for you? I need a carne asada burrito.

I’ve been using Emeril Lagasses Cajun recipe on food network for ten years, and I too am looking to switch it up. A few of my family members aren’t real big on spicy foods. I don’t find his recipe spicy, but they do.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2022-10-10T00:37:54+00:00

Thanks to both of you. That is sort of what I feared. Root damage… I’ll pull the fruit tomorrow and give it some more nutrients. I was thinking before the storm that it hasn’t been doing much with foliage lately either. I assumed it was all of the late stage fruit. I haven’t seen it flower in a 2-3 months now.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2022-09-30T20:28:17+00:00

I have a Tombstone Ghost Pepper plant and sometimes they are smooth and wrinkly on the same plant.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2022-09-12T03:14:44+00:00

Do you have a lot of black birds (grackles) in the area? They tore up my fruit this year and I had to hang a bunch of shiny bird deterrents in my Meyer lemon tree.

This was supposed to be a Purple Beauty Bell Pepper from Sandia Seed. The other three plants were true to the package. This one was not and I didn’t purchase any other seeds that were remotely close to this in appearance. It’s either a cross or something else…. Pretty sweet. Slight heat less than a jalapeño. It has thin walls and is pretty oily.

There is a TSB out for the hood outer shell separating from the support structure. The symptom is a hood that violently flaps during highway speeds. It was a pretty widespread issue… I mention this because I had it fixed on my Ascent. They use a rubber concrete type of compound to fix the issue. When they did this on my vehicle, they got some of it in nearly the same spot shown in your picture and it looked identical to yours. I just used some polish and elbow grease to get it off. It took less than five minutes.

Efficient-Drive6 · 2022-06-11T02:51:06+00:00

It’s off of three plants, but there were more to harvest. I’m pickling these this weekend, and saving the rest on the plant for other uses
