Pod-lovers,

OK, read into this query my desire to merely get my hands on another stash of 
Chimayo chile powder (authentic I hope) the easy way--using money.  

What happens if you try to grow Chimayo chiles in SW Ohio from seed?  Would 
you get that distinctive taste, and eventually (with a lot of luck) produce a 
powder nearly identical to the real, landrace Chimayo good stuff?

Please say no.  Next question:  Where can we replenish our supply, especially 
if local giant Jungle Jim's that supposedly has everything doesn't sell it?
