Hello fellow chile-heads, Yesterday, I stumbled across the Chile-Heads Digest while I was looking up something on the web. The Digest appears to be filled with great recipes, helpful hints for growing/preserving peppers, and wit (all those hot peppers must do something for the brain cells <smile>). I don't know if Steve Thomas still subscribes to the CH list, but this weekend I'm going to try a recipe he posted in '97 for Pork Steaks in Adobo (Bistek de Puerco en Adobo). It looks like it might be quite tasty. I have a question that I hope someone out there can answer. I am growing peppers in pots on my balcony. The plants in the pot that contains jalapenos, polynesian, and cayenne peppers are filled with blooms/ peppers. Since flowering, the plants have been crawling with tiny ants. The ants don't appear to be harming the plants. Does anyone know why I have ants on my pepper plants? I've left them alone, thinking they might be aiding in the pollination process. Any suggestions/ideas? Regards, Melony
