No stranger to hots and extra hots, but first time with the sole end goal of smoking and drying for several jars of grind/flakes and not pickling, cooking with them etc.
Great germination rate, and I know "paprika" as a finished product/spice isn't any one particular brand so hopefully this one is decent.
Plants will be in 7 gallon pots, and I'm thinking 3 plants for a good end result? Ideally 5-6 normal grocery store sized jars but not sure if I'll have to do the drying/smoking in smaller batches if they ripen at different rates, etc.
Anyone done this before who can give me an idea of if there's any way to smoke and/or dry them all at once if they ripen at different rates? Dry first? Freeze? TIA! 🔥🌶️
