CAP 1491 Mature pods have dark red color
Mini Mini (C.baccatum). Trimmed some branches.. Will see if it will grow some new foliage
C.lanceolatum on a new container
Thx Chris,
Chilli’s can be grown in many different ways, and I do respect other people's comment's etc.
Anyway transformed one of the plants into a Bonchi.
Mini Mini (C.baccatum)
C.lanceolatum 2009 (17-03-2010)
C.lanceolatum 2009 (17-10-2010)
Kinda neglected it for months as I was to busy to take care of it. Trimmed a lot of small roots
We will have some night-frost this weekend so decided to take a couple of plants inside. The fruits on these plants haven't fully matured yet.
I've reassembled my growbox and made it taller (about 1,2m) to fit the matured plants.
C.tovarii and C.cardenasii
I had most success with temps. around 30 degrees C. and most Wild growers I know germinate at that temperature. There is a scientific reason for it :) but it's your choice to germinated at any temperature you like.
Anyway good luck with the Wilds.
Thx guys.
Wilds can be hard to germinate and fresh seeds are preferable to achieve higher germinating rates. Seed quality is also a big factor as some pods contain blank/useless seeds, would take forever to germinate those...
It's also good to germinated them at approx. 30 degrees C.
C.praetermissum. My favorite praetermissum, massive plant!
Small Harvest. Hearth throb, Mini Mini, 2 different C.chacoense, C.flexuosum, Duke pequin, Tepin eastern travis County. Plants are still loaded with fruits. I sure hope they all ripen soon
The weather is good here in the Netherlands for this time of the year but I can say that we had a lousy summer, most plants are still ripening there fruits.. But in case winter kicks I have a backup plan. Remarkable is that most species bear the cold very well. Especially C.praetermissum...
