Datil Peppa Vinegar 2021

Ad Astra

The Instigator
Two out of 16 plants survived last year's hurricane, but they are producing some good-looking Datil peppers.

Datils are associated with St. Augustine Florida ... but they'll grow anywhere.



Here's is the first bottle (2021) of "peppa sauce," or pepper vinegar.

And you can see a bed of this year's plants ... already producing!

Dat'l Do it - nice!

won't grow here I have to import

Hm. I sent some Datil seeds to a niece in Connecticut and she's got some growing ...


Always really liked the Datil Do-It sauce - killer on a burger!


The actual pepper is much, much meaner than the sauce.

Also trying to grow Manzano peppers this year, if anyone knows that one. Another odd pepper, from Chile/Andes. Likes the cool, so it might not fare well here ...

My problem isn't the hardiness zone but lack of enough sunshine to grow hot peppers unless I'd off some shade trees ..
Im in Jacksonville Florida city next to St Augustine ,,short drive , We have weeks of rain cloudy skies in our summer , I HIGHLY doubt it is a sunshine problem
