Purple stems..is there a why?

I wsa just going over my plants today, and relized ALL of them have rather purple stems. The nagas, the fatai, even the o-habs.

Now, they are all VERY healthy..but I just wondered..what causes that?

Is it a natural pigment thing or ???

I know some vars have that in particular, like my choc hab..which looks like an alien life form...

Just curious.

That is normal on all peppers.

I have noticed the same thing when growing other forms of,, er, "vegetation". Seems to go away with them.
Will it go away with the chillies?

Its a pigment thing..When growing and strengthening of the plant in the branch and growth areas i think ?

yeah, it's in the branches mostly.


Seems tho, the healthyer they are, the mor epurple the connecting stems are. I didnt thin all nagas had puirple stems.

Mine do. Esp,.in the internodal growth area. They are just going nuts. I have two plants that actually have dbl-leaf growth...one set on top of another...it's weird.
And, they are extremely symetrical....compared to most folks plants.

I assume that's good?

Not as long burn, 10min tops, but jeebus..it's fierce, Bih level hit for liek 5 mins. Damn. The evil monsters hit liek a brick to the groin. MF hottt.

Oww.

IDK wtf these are, i guess they Burkina..btu jeeeez, they are hot. I sliced a pod, and was full of glistening beads of cap juice on every surface.

Frell me.


Bad news: I made a meal outas em.
Worse news, I'm hungry.

Most worse news: I took the hotdog cov3ered in that stoopid-hot relish outa toaster oven, and now hte air smells of habs...

Oh Dear.

Ya, took a bite..tastes like a fatali..the hab taste is so strong. Daaamn.
MF%%##%%$ hot....

Dang weird habs anaywqys.

Nagas at least let ya taste the food b4 they pound ya..these dont.
I ate 1/2 my hotdog..on real bread and wit cheese, onions nad pickles.

And, its hard to focus to type...eyes..tearing, face...swaeting. Dumb me, I melted the cheese intio the habs as I usually do..thus making this near uneatable now.
