Well here we are almost in October in central Texas. The weather has cooled down and round number two of pods are maturing. Plant size in the vegtrug is about 3' over the top of my fence. Pod and blossom production is going bonkers. I'm using GH Tiger bloom once a week. These pants have...

This is cool...never seen anything like this before.

Wow! Garden looks great and all of those pods....man oh man

A few shots of my first chocolate Trinidad scorpion pod. I have grown the regular color variety for the past few years and comparatively these seem to have a smoker less floral flavor (no diesel fuel smell as well) but all the heat! I saved the seeds for next years grow...but am thinking that...
