I too am having the same problem as the OP.   After reading the replies I think the reason my chillies are dropping flowers is due to the very high temperatures that we are having in Spain this year. The temperatures are heading well into the 90s each day.   The image attachement posted by...

Hi guys,   I noticed this event taking place in the North of England in September 2013 whilst I was researching something completely different.   Maybe those of you that live in North Yorkshire or around that area may be interested in seeing what Chillifest 2013 is all about. It promises (taken...

Thumbs up for Peter and Semillas La Palma! I purchased 6 varieties of seeds from Peter in December 2012. They arrived quickly and the germination rate has been 100% for the 24 seeds that I have space for this year! I'm only a noob when it comes to growing chilis but I hope that they grow as...

Beauties!

Thanks for the photo fireface. Mine are pretty similar to yours so I'm guessing that I'm growing Scotch Bonnets. The Habs tend to look a little more pointy at the end whereas the majority of mine are rounded. I've got plenty more starting to turn red soon but I must get more different varieties...

:welcome: Hello from sunny Spain! Keep out of the rain okay. I hear it's pretty wet at the moment... ;)

Weird is good. I'd rather be considered weird and strange, than what people call 'normal' nowadays! Therefore... Keep it up, sir. Live your own life. Walk your own path. Lead - don't follow. Etc!

Thanks again for the replies :) It appears that many chillies look similar, but are slightly different, so it makes difficult to identify them! The pictures given here are a great help. My longer and thinner chillies get to max 4cm long, but the more squarer pumpkin shaped ones get to a max of...

Thanks for the quick responses! It does have a fruity taste and loses heat when cooked. I didn't know that the red Scotch Bonnets varied so much in shape so that kind of explains the odd shapes I'm getting. Cheers again for your help everybody :cheers:

Another anime fan here - mostly movies though. I've seen most of Miyazaki's movies and other Ghibli films. I've enjoyed Appleseed, Ghost in the Shell, NGE, Akira, Vampire D, etc. Others in my collection include Afro Samurai, Barefoot Gen, other manga films (5 centimetres per second, Origin...

Thanks to this great thread on the forums I dehydrated my first chillies today. Cut them in half (a few quartered) and they came out perfectly on my new 50€ dehydrater, which looks a little like the one shown in the original post. Cheers everybody for the useful advice! :)

Hi guys, I'm quite a newbie so please forgive my ignorance... I've been growing these for two years now. The plants are large, grow like crazy (we keep having to trim them back) to a height of about 1 metre. The seeds were sold as scotch bonets from a seller in the UK but after looking online...

:welcome: Hello from Spain! I hope the rain stops for you. I hear it's pretty dire there at the moment - probably due to Wimbledon being on!
