criolla de concina
 
Someone sent ma few seeds... sorry off the top of my head I don't know who, but it was a gift. can anyone tell me anything about it. I see it is a "rare" pepper from Nicaragua... but size, use, did you think it was a great pepper? any info would be appreciated. thanks. I will save some this Fall.... if I think they are great too.

Baker Creek sells it and has a pretty good description.

It germinated well for me but seems to like to dry out a bit between waterings.

My Criolla de Cocina seeds came from "roper 2008". I'll be growing it for the 1st time this year. Looks pretty good!

Mine look great, I am just wondering what others think of it.

I probably should give it a try. Another TV member told me that Ajvarski (growing out again this year for me) comes out sweeter and more productive.

Do you grow any other sweet peppers as a reference point?

I grow to furnish a roadside stand and 3 farmers markets a week. so, uh huh! I grow yummy, bells, hots, pendants blocks a new one from baker creek and I can't tell you what its called. probably from Serbia. orange ruffled squatty... ... I am growing 100 flats for a farm market this year at least 18 of those are peppers. ... I grow. I will compare it to what I already grow. I always appreciate anyones input here because they really do grow. and have experience opinions not just... "it sounds good. let us know how it was":roll:

The 2nd reviewer is likely the source of seeds to T'villians.

Ah, you are okay, scooty. Sometimes just keeping a thread going helps too.
