There is the odd plant that has produced less pigment on the stems and veins than in previous seasons despite exposure to direct sunlight. I hadn't thought much of the fertiliser rotation supplying little by the way of Calcium nutrient since the tap water is hard. In the past I observed too much...

The plant produces anthocyanin to protect the stems and veins from various wavelengths of light. This is a useful trait that I plan on selecting for in a future grow out of an unstable strain here.

Would you happen to know if the C. pubescens you grow can have purple stems when grown in direct sunlight? The plants that are better able to protect themselves from intense light are the ones that were more productive this season.

I finally managed to get Junglerain's Sukanya Rocoto to hold onto a couple fruit:   The plant is a clone of the the original plant that sprouted at the beginning of November 2012.

My last reply was in regard to your Rocoto plant.

It appears that you have a number of leaves without much by the way of internodal space. The various C. pubescens plants I have grown produce 1 or 2 flowers per node. A couple of nodes packed close together would give the appearance of 4 flowers from the one point. Do you have an photo that...

A strong wind gust can topple the mini greenhouse and thus its contents. Place something heavy on the bottom shelf to weigh it down more and lower the centre of gravity.

  C. chinense Limón is the quickest of its species I have seen. Below is the first fruit ripening on a plant that I have noted as emerging as a sprout on 2011-09-23, transplanted on 2011-10-30, first anthesis on 2011-12-08 and first fruit ripening dated by the image on 2012-01-25: It caught my...

I have never come across a Bearded Dragon. The blue-tongue is out of reach. There are many critters other than snails that chomp on seedlings here.

There are two US trademarks as of the time of drafting of this post: A UK trademark search for Carolina Reaper yielded zero results. It is not in the US Plant Variety Protection database.   There should be no need to shorten the name further to just Reaper given the following disclaimer listed...

There's something sprouting from between my chilli plant pots: Blue-tongued Lizard between chilli plant pots Blue-tongued Lizard flattening its body

Do you have a link to the ebay user that you bought the seeds from? The results of search by image revealed a seller based in China selling 5 bags for US$3.34. If you are interested in actually ending up with a Bhut Jolokia then hedge your bets and grow out some seed from a reputable source.

Do you have a photo of the entire plant?

Is this the same plant as the one on the right that you mentioned back in the following post? How long is a typical fruit?

A web search yielded a result that referenced a Facebook post: The possible influence of the Trinidad Scorpion Butch T did cross my mind when looking at the stingers. A Google translation of the German listing didn't yield a reference to the seed being harvested from F3 plants.

I think hyperlinking the thumbnail shouldn't be an issue. Superhot Beast I have no idea as to the identity of the parents. Edit: Changed the link over to the English page.

Smokemaster was the one that found a white Rocoto. The tale though was indeed a Rocoto tragedy: http://thehotpepper.com/topic/44914-the-holy-grailfound-in-vista-california/?view=findpost&p=945388

Do you have a photo of the plant?

Changing _s to _c helps in the image tag URL helped. [img=https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5561/15228436095_3e0090ee8b_c.jpg]
