Jim, if you are not a purist and just have to grow your own (and I have no idea what is yet to happen to your green pods), you can buy the Pasilla de Oaxaca at what I consider quite modest price from Native Seeds Search in Tuscon, www.nativeseeds.org. You can get 6 or 7 dried pods (1.5 oz) from them for $2.50, and they are absolutely delicious. Fred the habaneronut > >> > >
