Mankeli's chili plants in Finland

Hello!

So.. i'm 25 year old guy from Finland and i love chilis very much!! I have been growing now for 3 years. It's still snow on the ground here and pretty cold, so my plants are still indoors. On sunny days i have took few plants to outside for a while. Here's my list and some photos for this season:

Black Pearl
Black Pearl/Chinense (It was Black Pearl seed i planted but the flowers are from Chinense chili.. interesting mix)
Brown Large Habanero
Champion x Bhut Jolokia
Peruvian White Habanero
Aji Habanero
Aji Cristal
Gumdrop
Cayenne
Orange Habanero
Bhut Jolokia x Trinidad Perfume

I hope it's soon warmer here so i could take all chilis to outdoors.. but it doesnt look too good. For next two weeks it's like +5 degrees and not very sunny. Yesterday and day before it was snowing more again. So the growing season is pretty short in here.. i dont like that! Hope the summer is warm and sunny! :)
 
Mankeli, your plants look really good! The overwinters are
awesome, especially that Cayenne - looks like a bonsai!

Welcome to THP.

Thank you very much PaulG! Two of the overwinters are still trying to wake up from the winter.. and are getting used to their new pots. Maybe they start to grow soon.. i hope! :D
The Cayenne is one of my favourite plants. Not very good tasting though. I had it in a bonsai pot whole winter but now i planted it to a bigger pot and let it grow!
Thanks for the welcomes also.. i wanted to put my Glog on a foreign site so i can also work my english language a bit.. hehe! :)

The Cayenne should make good powder/flakes.
You work the english language well, Mankeli!
 
Yes.. i use dried Cayenne with black pepper. Works nice!
I try to do my best with my english.. i havent been able to use it for a while so its nice to write it now.. :)

Here's Fatalii, Rocoto Peru Pisa and Heart Throb. The Rocoto i will put on the ground soon as the snow melts and weather gets warmer.

A closer look at the Rocoto Peru Pisa. One of my favourite plants every way.. nice looking, makes lot's of pods and the taste is awesome!

IMG_1479.JPG

Fatalii. This one was much smaller at last summer but still made lots of pods.. cant wait to see how this summer goes! ;)

IMG_1480.JPG

Heart Throb. This is very fun plant. Not my favourite taste but i like the way it looks.

When i next time visit my parents i take more photos.. now didnt have time to photo all of them.
 
another bonsai/overwinter owner. You guys makes me jealous!

Looking good!

Thanks for your visit mate! I had one plant on a bonsai pot.. it was pretty nice. After this summer i will buy some more bonsai pots and try it again. Maybe i try to find a photo of that bonsai i had... :rolleyes:
So you dont have any overwinter plants?
 
Nice pics again! We also had snow on easter... I am hope we get some of that sunshine too but it doesnt look promising.
