Secret Weapon B
" Tangled Branches " F3

This is a different line that has different growing branches with smaller fruits just like that they grow short


My peppers are a work in progress.
I believe I have annuum / frutescens crosses
Trying to breed for small bite sized hot peppers that grow upright and are flavorful and easy to grow.
I'm new to all this, so I don't really know what I am doing.
Using peppers for practice.

Gorilla Chili Peppers

I think I started with a type of Chiltepin

These are hotter than my original peppers.

Here's one of my original peppers

Hi! Always consider the possibility that there is some normal variability in the shape of peppers, before thinking about successful crossings (especially interspecific ones). Good luck with your project!

 

[HerbCasa]

Yes, I have been trying to cross interspecies.

Some peppers need to be evaluated by tasting before collecting seeds...

These seeds are saying
"Save Me"


It was damaged

 

[HerbCasa]

The pepper was tasted.
Heat was sufficient
Seeds were saved together with the other
Gorilla Chili Pepper(s)
Seeds

I'm saving the seeds of multiple plants together mixed up for sharing and next planting.


This is one of the fruits left on that plant.

I will also save these seeds
Even though the fruit size isn't that nice.
