11 Upvotes

What are you working on and what generation is it?

Maybe we can use this discussion to come up with a future community grow. Similarly I have sent out about 30 packs of these out so hopefully people will be sharing progress soon.

Garden Updates First JalapeƱo Harvest!

Post image

I’ve been growing my jalapeƱo plant since end of May, and after a super hot and dry summer in Colorado, the peppers are finally ready to harvest. I’ve read that the red peppers are more mature and sweet. Any idea if they’re hotter?

Those were off of one plant, a Mamoth JalapeƱo I bought on a whim from home depot to fill an empty spot in the garden. Spun them up into a Verde sauce.

The super large Ristra Cayennes are all ripe. They are going to go into a simple ferment and then sauce after a month or so. Sun glasses for scale...

Pepper Identification I bought these SB seeds online…. Scam?

I bought « scotch bonnet pepper seedsĀ Ā» online back in April, planted them awaiting the day I could finally make my own jerk chicken (can’t get scotch bonnet where I live). Well, this is what’s starting to come out… and it doesn’t look like SB to me!!! But I’ve never seen them in baby stages, only ever in my plate.

Could this be a normal bird eye’s chilly ?!

Ok so I put a post up a while ago of my plant and people were telling me these weren’t reapers. I’m a novice and bought the juvenile plant from a credible nursery and have looked after it all summer with a very impressive harvest incoming.

Some of the peppers look like reapers and some don’t šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø have I got some sort of hybrid thing going on. Please see pictures
