My extreme membership expired so have to link to flckr, sorry. I will renew it on monday so i can post normal pics on the threads. This tobasco is 5 years old and about 8 feet tall...... here is its trunk. The canopy is so high it literally grew into a fruit tree planted next to it....harvesting can be tricky.

Here is a bit of an update on my 4 year old CARDI, another good season from the old boy has earned him a slot in my 2016 grow... and his trunk grows fatter with every year!

This is a Beni Highlands at 6 months. I was thinking about bonsai since it has so many branches and is short and stocky. Tastes ok but I wish it was more like Aji Limon.

I threw a bunch in the compost today that were over an inch at 6 months.

So awesome!!! I have some over-winters going that I would love to eventually develop some trunks, but currently I am dealing with an unkillable infestation... so I am afraid I may need to cull them before I sprout my seeds.

I'm going to do this after this season with one of my overwintered plants from last year. I will probably do it with a choc hab or fatalii.
