Hard to say, probably a little longer to ripen, but I can't be sure. I can say that once the cooler temps starting coming in the Primotaliis really started ripening quickly. I got a lot of them this year, will be making an All-Primotalii fermented hot sauce!
Thank you for your suggestions! I've had seedlings have a tough start like this but I really want to get this one going!
Maybe it's true what they say the hotter the pepper the harder the germination.
Here is the one Warthog I got
(helmet is stuck on but I'm keeping the seedling in a small, very moist domed container with breathe-holes.)
The seed coats on these are crazy! Any tips for further guaranteeing the cotylodons can push the seed off?
cheers
Most of mine are going into hot sauce
there were basically 3 different shapes to the pods this year, I had less of the 'Cowboy Boots' than last year, various long and gnarly, some were very gnarly etc.
Fermenting in brine time
Anyone who got some have any luck with germination yet? A bunch of the GJP popped and I have some nice seedlings! Still waiting to see signs of the Warthog tho OH PLEASE! OH PLEASE! sprout!
hey folks!
So a couple of my pepper ferment batches did something kinda weird, it's started to smell like a brewery in these two jars. These two batches are mostly Sugar Rush Peach Stripe so I'm thinking the brine wasn't strong enough to slow the fermentation down given the high sugar content...
I've grown Bell peppers a bunch of times in cloth grow bags like I do my other pepper plants, they actually don't get that big. This year my Sugar Rush Peach Striped towered over them.
Here are some of the Charapita I've harvested so far. Many went into salads and on nachos, things like that, I'm I've given some away. Mostly I just dry them in my dehydrator and they can go to make pepper flakes as I need them later. My Peruvian Cerezo has also been yielding a nice harvest. The...
I grow a lot of Aji Lemon Drop as well and I get this on my pods also. Pretty sure it's just a harmless "sunburn" - same thing happens with my KS White Thai, but in that case it's purple colouring, not dark like OP's pic.
I was gonna send away for seeds from Matthew Arthur, but being in Canada, I foresee there being problems with shipping. So this Fall I will be working on a little pepper cross project of my own, I can tell you it will include 7 Pot Primo and 2 other superhots. :)
Looks like the Warthog (Wartryx X 7 Pot Primo?) is raising eyebrows now...couple people out there apparently offering seeds. I wonder if anyone here will try - I can't I don't think he will ship to Canada. Would love to try though.
