Wish I could grow the peppers I use in my Chili mix, but the growing season simply isn't long enough here. Chili Arbol, which are ridiculously cheap and I get more than I can use so not really worth growing; Cascabel Chilis, and Anchos. I can grow the Poblano, but they don't have enough time to ripen, so I just get the green ones. The dried Ancho I use are a dark purple, I assume from fully ripe Poblanos. So I will have to continue to buy them dried. The nice large Anchos and the Cascabels are much more expensive then the Arbol and I wish I could grow them myself. I use them mostly for the flavor and the Arbol add a little heat.
