Desert Tepin Pepper



This tiny desert pepper is said to be hotter than the Dorset Naga, although Guiness lists the Dorset naga as the hottest. We have reports of comparisons between the two suggesting that the Desert Tepin Pepper is reliably hotter. We make no claims as to which is the true champ, but there is no question that the Desert Tepin Pepper is a must-have for the serious chile pepper enthusiast. We also carry Dorset naga seeds, so you can test them for yourself and decide who the champ really is.

Growing Information for Desert Tepin Pepper: Plant your seeds at a depth of 1/4" in a well-draining soil mixture. Keep very warm and bright. This pepper requires hotter temperatures than typical pepper species because of its native environment. Use of a heat lamp will raise soil temperature. After the seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves, transplant to a location in full sun. More sun and less water will increase the heat content. Plants mature in 100 days.

Wild Lettuce

Lactuca Virosa Wild Lettuce

If you have encountered Lactuca Virosa, bitter lettuce, you know that it does not have the wateriness of its domesticated cousin, and its chemical relationship to other strongly Saturn plants like henbane indicates a Saturn association, especially when you consider the insignificant flowers. Consider Lactuca Virosa, wild bitter lettuce, as an incense aid for divination, especially when working with darker deities.
Lactuca Virosa, wild bitter lettuce is a herb contains the tropane hyoscyamine, much as the nightshades do, but Lactucarium, an Eclectic preparation from this herb, is a sedating bitter that contains no hyoscyamine. Lactuca Virosa, wild bitter lettuce dried sap looks, tastes, and smells similar to opium (more Moon here) and so has been used to adulterate opium in the past, which probably partially accounts for its name. This plant is also known as Strong-scented Lettuce, Lettuce Opium, Laitue vireuse, and Acrid Lettuce.
