So, I've got some Cayanetta, Loco Chillis, Orange Habanero and some Orange Ghost drying. Not really much though.   I've got heaps of pods that are green and should be turning soon...carolina reapers, brain killers, red bhuts, white bhuts, more Orange ghosts (around 50 pods), heaps of Butch T.  ...

Epilogue: Pods on the sick plant have started changing colour. New growth is healthy.   Thanks for the help guys.

Hey nz,   Plant is definitely looking better, lots of new growth - I'll put a photo up soon.    The bad growth hasnt recovered, but I dont think i have any more mites left. Will keep spraying for a few more days though.   Cheers all!

Three questions:   Best way of drying seeds? Right now I pair them out of a pepper and and then dry them in a paper towel away from direct light and put them in the fridge - is that the best way to do it?   Where do you get those baggies?   Include photos in the baggies? I've got a couple of odd...

  Great idea Shorerider.   I've got a bunch of peppers just getting big, and some that I've planted from seed a bit late are just starting to come into flower. I'd love to be able to share them all. I'm thinking 30-45 days to harvest?   Also, do we take photos or just write down what they are...

Thanks Capcom, I'll wait till they ripen up and check back to see what the new perspective is. When you say taste and confirm, do you mean eat the entire pepper? Or just a small piece? Not sure my palette is good enough to separate the heat and flavour - will the ghost be exceptionally hotter...

Hi mate,   I sprayed again on Friday (most plants, not just affected ones) and am planning on doing it again on Wednesday. The main affected plant I cut back reasonably heavy, and it's not looking great but it's still alive. Actually has some clean regrowth that isnt affected (yet). Some shots...

Sydney, Inner West.

Hi All,   I picked up several plants at the start of my season, and whilst some were labelled (which I'm still going to double check) some I bought in packs of 6 with three varieties (no labels on the individual plants), and the six pack labelled as Reapers, Scorpions and Ghosts. Of these six...

Sign me up - still think seeds should be done over beers in a dodgy pub so it looks wrong :D  :onfire:

Count me in.   Not sure how many people we have, but for people in Sydney I'd be happy to meet up and have a drink in the city and exchange pods / seeds.   Cheers, Sev

nzchilli, I cleaned out alot but was able to find a magnifying class and was looking at some leaves that I'd left on (that look fine) but lots of white dots moving around underneath...which I'd assume are mites.   When you say sulphur based products, are there any specific names you can give to...

Thanks nzchilli. So, neem is good versus mites, so apply neem to everything, chop off anything affected and hopefully we won't have anymore issues. Does this mean get rid of peppers as well, or will the neem help?   Cheers,   Brad

Thanks all - included some photos of the undersides of the leaves. I've also done a first pass with eco-neem oil which gets rid of mites. I'll repeat in a few days, and clean up the plant removing some of these affected leaves as well.   Photos (excuse my hands)!     Cheers,   Sev

Hi All,   Long time no post. Been crazy with work and family.   One of my plant seems to have been developing a few issues, and having spoken to some wise old men, they think it may be nutrient burn, but to consult with all the Chilli Gods, I thought I'd post some clean photos up to check...

Subscribed - can't wait to see what you do this season mate :)

So what are you planning to do with all those pods buddy?   I just made a batch of mango habanero hot sauce - tastes amazing! Also what are the little yellow ones? Morugas?    

Hey Mas,   I have two types of grow bag. The smaller ones are 5 gallon and the bigger ones are 15 gallon. It's taken most of the season for the big grow bags to get filled out (i bought seedlings in October and only pulled three peppers off one of the plants. However, my Butch T is now around 5...

Thanks Devv,   It's a great feeling to get some solid pods - heaps of oil - they're smelling hot!   These are from my Butch T - some interesting looking pods. The second photo looks like a gnarly one coming in.   

Been a while but it's just been pretty same old same old on a day to day basis. Fight aphids, water plants, wait for them to ripen. Picked my first bunch of fruit, super happy with the strength, just the fumes from cutting them open was fairly strong - can't wait to cook with them. I'm making a...
