Howdy guys, so I got a bit of a weird question.
In the subcontinent, places like Pakistan and India, they use a chili that is just referred to as "green chili" or "chili". It's a small variety, looks a bit like a Thai chili. My wife is Pakistani and we use them a lot in cooking, and I even had my mother-in-law send over a seed packet from Pakistan disguised as a birthday card.
Anyway I've grown this variety for a couple years, but about two have passed since we last cultivated them successfully and with moving, job, etc, just haven't had time to grow them. My remaining seeds I had from my previous harvest have done very poorly in terms of germination, so I have a couple of stunted plants that are outside in the raised beds and am worried if they will survive or not.
As a backup I want to see if you guys recognize these peppers, that way I can order more if my plants from my seed stock did poorly. If the visual element isn't helpful I bet you could mosey on down to any Indian grocery store and find this chili pepper there to try out. It's very hot for its size and is usually harvested green. I'm attaching some photos of the harvest plus the plants to give you an idea!
