The cultivars of the overwintered plants are anaheim, time bomb, and serrano. The new starts have a jalapeno, a tasmanian black, and an ancho/poblano.
Good eye on the bird peppers! I’m a huge fan of those guys too - I use them a lot in fermented salsa.
That sounds heavenly! Do you have any favorite cultivars that do well like growing like that?
Condolences for the freeze!
Yeah, I can totally see that approach making sense for containerized plants. The fresh soil + root wash are really nice for the pest control benefits, but it seems easy enough to (e.g.) dust some diatomaceous earth on the pot occasionally to much the same effect.
Synology runs a proprietary OS OOTB that’s had multiple sloppy vulns exposing full remote access to users’ files. Putting your data in the hands of fuckups who have and will continue to leak it is the opposite of total control.
It’s completely trivial to store any data you want to in a cloud provider 100% securely just by piping it through openssl before uploading.
