Haven't grown any pumpkins since 08, going to give it another shot this year. Took a couple years off, and last year just grew some habanaros and some naga jolokias for the first time for something different. Both done really well considering what I had read about jolokias being quite difficult to grow. They were slow in the early growth stages and very fusy on water and nutrients, but I just listened to what the plant told me it wanted and they done fine, lol. Grew them in a portable 9x9 greenhouse, as Manitoba isn't even close to a good place to grow these hot peppers outside. Got a few hundred peppers off 6 jolokia and 2 habanero plants. Growing them again this year, have 7 jolokias and 1 habanero growing right now.
