Specializing in hot peppers

Here we go! $3 each :grin:
Much easier for me to buy these than to source the seeds and wait for them to germinate.

I’m especially happy to find the Jamaican Bonnet :stuck_out_tongue: I might go back and get another.

@Hashpants and @duo thanks, if these take up to 3 weeks to germinate, I will wait to see what the second batch will do. :+1:

It’s taken this long to take seeds from this purchased Frensno peppers, grow them and get 1 nice pepper. Yes it tastes like it should, yummy.

Now I’ve got about 60 Frensno pepper seeds from this so I can grow more of them this year.

I tried the same thing with some seeds out of bought fresnos, but none of mine germed. Wonh wonhhh.

Got some helios and red embers though :hot_pepper: above ground in the not-fridge waiting for their move outside, along with some tomatoes :tomato: :sunglasses:

Well I f@#ked up today. I put my seedlings outside as the weather was going to be in the 70’s, went out to bring them in and my super hots were burnt to a crisp! Argh! Time to start over.

Oh no :sob:

Finally put 5 jelopeno plants in the peppy bed today

ok I did some kind of study on the pepper edema.


This is what I’m talking about, right? You see weird lumps from over watering. So they say.

Simple measure to prevent it, is pots made out of water wicking materials.

Like these two scruffy pots, I use over and over. Any pepper planted in the fiber pots won’t get edema.

Pretty sure these are Costa Rican chilis. :purple_heart::love_you_gesture:t2: If you enjoy them, I recommend piquillo!

My Anaheim peppers seemed stalled on height since transplanting them outside a month ago. I’d thought they just weren’t doing anything at all until I took a closer look today.

Not me just realizing this week that one of my “anaheim” pepper plants, probably isn’t an anaheim. Looking at the comparison above anybody care to guess what those shorty peppers are?

I ve had no luck growing peppers . Tried to start seeds in containers , straight into soil and none of them started. Not sure what my issue is. I tried seeds someone gave me on here and bought 3 packs of mild and hot peppers and nothing. This sucks

They take 2 to 3 weeks to sprout. I’ve gotten 7 kinds from @duo and @Til_Valhalla and all are up and going after 6 weeks. You can hurry them a bit with light feeding when sprouts.
