    Hello
    Over at thechileman.org we are inviting entries for our second annual chileman challenge. The variety for 2007 will be the NuMex Big Jim pepper and the winner will be the person who grows the largest pod. While the competition is just a bit of fun, there is thechileman trophy up for grabs, plus some signed copies of Dave DeWitt's books - a must for anyone interested in growing chile peppers!

    Competition aside, the big jim variety is a great tasting pepper and excellent for stuffing with rice, cheese, chilli con carne, etc.

    If anyone fancies taking part in the competition take a look at www.thechileman.org/bigjim.php

    Hope you are all looking forward to growing chile peppers in 2007.

    Regards
    www.thechileman.org
