A Tabasco story

BakedIn · September 24, 2017

Tabasco's are a good pepper. They are not my favorite raw, but dehydrated and later ground into powder it makes the perfect pepper for me. Around Feb when I start beginning to germinate things, I noticed I had failed to stash any Tabasco seeds.

This is a small town and nobody carries Tabasco seeds.

So I figured, let me try and germinate some from my dehydrated stash:

I figured it wouldn't hurt to try, but no way would they pop after the heat they sat through being dehydrated and the additional time spent in the bags.. maybe a couple years old

Sure enough though:

I guess they are tougher than I gave them credit for.
