Plants are long past ready and beginning to get root bound.

More rain today. At least the SE no longer suffers from a drought.
 
Yea i was surprised and he actually made it quite a bit bigger, I measured it again...25 X 28 so guess that means a shit ton of plants next year.
 
SS I hate to say it...but I think some of your hornworms may have hitched a ride to my house. I cut 7 in half, they were all on the plants you gave me.Time to bbreak out the soap water it seems
 
Dang SS, you got the pods going on. That Yellow Primo is killer, Jamie sent me a pod off if his plant, great flavor and killer heat. 
 
Love the Black Pearl, it's a beauty for sure. Are the pods any good?
 
Wow, stunning Black Pearl.  That is what I thought I
was getting when planted mine from THSC. but the
pods were all elongated and pendant.

And the year after it will increase in size again. ;)

Only found 3 so far in my garden and only one of those was on a chilli plant. Those huge moths do get around though.

If ya can get past the seeds (lots of em in those small pods, so remove first)  they aren't too bad for an ornamental. Quick sting that fades fast with a slight sweet flavor. I grow em for looks; too many other varieties better for consumption. One of my Yellow Primos is yellowing up, so I'll get to sample one soon. Thanks

Got plenty of seeds Paul and you're welcome to some. PM me and perhaps we can work out a seed swap. ;)

Have a few pod shots with a bump.

 
 
Awesome, man!  Looks pristine.  I spy ripening pods on the SS and the Yellow Bhut.  Possibly something with color at the bottom of the Bahamian Goat?
 
As always, great update!  Really good looking pods, can't wait to see all the nasty harvest shots in your future!
 
Wow, that's a lot of growth in a short time!
When the whole garden is filled in, it will be
a veritable jungle of heat and love!
 
Awesome work, buddy!
 
Comparing the taste of other Yellows,what would you say the TSMB Yellow taste like? Still in search of the BEST tasting Yellow. Although I do have some contenders that will be sampled by seasons end :)
 
Looookin Gooooooot!
 
SS, I just ate my first ripe Sepia Serpent. You sir, are a cruel and inhumane individual for breeding a pepper like this. The hottest I have ever tried. Everywhere hurts.
 
Thank you! :fireball:
 
Wow! Fantastic growth you have going on there!
 
Very nice garden! AND pods already ripening, not bad my friend!
