Paul, Dieter Thanks! I will follow your suggestions and I will not remove the buds! Probably they suffered stress from too much sun and ablaze temperatures here! 👍 I bought the seeds of PDN X Bonda Ma Jacques (White) from "Texas Hot Peppers" I think he is a member of the forum too. The...

Aji Bodysnatcher Suffered a lot with the scorch sun! ☀️ Thai Hot Thunder Mountain Longhorn I don't know what I did wrong, the Thai Hot and Thunder Mountain Longhorn (C. annuum) are producing buds too early I will remove them to not compromise the plant's growth but anyone have idea...

It's time to transplant the peppers to the definitive container I hope I don't kill any of them in the process! 😅 Unfortunately BTR Scorpion, Big Mustard Mama and Buena Mulata didn't germinate, I'll try one more time as I still have some seeds! The other varieties I sowed later, so they are...

Miracle Fruit/Miracle Berry (Synsepalum dulcificum) This time an african fruit... I think everyone remember this berry! A few years ago it was a trending topic on youtube channels and on social media with challenges and taste tests! As far as I know, they even created a pill with the active...

It seems that Brazil and Mexico have a lot in common, right? 🇧🇷🇲🇽 I definitely will read the article, it will be great to increase my knowledge about the genetics of peppers. 👍 Thanks Paul!

My Cumari verdadeira (C. praetermissum): I don't know what happens here but Brazilians have some problem naming their pepper varieties... We have several varieties of Cumari pepper, all with different characteristics, some with round fruits, others long, some red, some yellow, some with...

Hi Sandy! Thanks to having me back! 😊 I just saw your Glog and wow! you have a amazing collection of wilds! I live in the state of São Paulo in southeastern Brazil unfortunately far from the Guyana border I imagine there must be many interesting varieties there. The wild varieties have always...

The name of the fruit is exactly the same here "Achachairu" I've already tasted and I liked it too! the taste of the two fruits are very similar, even their appearance is similar, but Bacupari is half the size, most of the Achachairu here are imported from Bolivia and Peru, it seems that some...

Bacuparí-mirim (Garcinia brasiliensis) In the past, this fruit could be found throughout Brazil, but due to urbanization it is currently only found in parks and forest areas that remained preserved. This is the "mirim" variety, which in the Tupi-Guarani language means "small" so it can be...

Aphids, mites and whiteflies must be the trinity of pepper pests here! 😡 Fortunately I don't have any more whiteflies but aphids are a problem, I'm using neutral dishsoap or neem extract to control but I need to be careful to not burn the leaves. You right David we grow what we can grow! I...

I hope you can get rid of these pests and have a great growing season there in Mexico! Good luck!
