I guess there is a "Variegata" leaf mutation in question. Like Fish pepper. You can check my Candlelight leaf and flower mutation; http://thehotpepper.com/topic/53847-mutant-candlelight/ Looks like it isn´t a Capsicum at all.

I´d guess also eggplant. Matte leaves and if you look at the primary pair of leaves they look like belonging to Solanaceae family.  When very small you may mix these with chilis easily.

Sorry, double post.

 Really fantastic growth! I have a Kaffir Lime 3 yrs old and it´s not even half the size of your plant. You can use the lemon-scentd leaves especially in Thai cuisine. My favourite is Tom Yum soup modified so that there´s more fish than prawns.

  8 pods, 6 seeds. It´s a start. Haven´t checked the other plants but soon I will.

  A russian variety Alexandra. Planted in October - November.

A lot. But to pay a little for a good hobby is worth the cost. The greenhouse time is starting now. It helps a little but I still have to heat it up for about a month. Nightfrosts can occur sometimes even in June here in Finland.

 Thanks for the pic; my Faria is fake altough good tasting and very aromatic. Smaller and the skin is smooth- Don´t really know what it might be.

Not just light, taken with a 10mm fisheye lens but cropped a bit.

  C.galapagoense     C.chinense Murici     Scornaga dried up a little.     Garlic 6,0oz     Ceps or Porcinis. Collected over 55kg (121lb) during this exceptional season.     Some baccatums.

  I think it was Medical Nikkor that has in-built ringflash.

  I´ve had same kind of problems before.  2010.     2011     2012     2013     2014   This season my wife said she would kick me out if I had as many chilis as before. Should I go? Naw, I have just more tomatoes instead of chilis. The number of plants remains about the same.

 Your SB collection is just fantastic! I´ve followed your project in UK Chillis Galore forum as you know. I have a question considering  Faria. How does a genuine Faria look like? Should be the same as Tobago sweet SB. I have grown past two seasons a chinense as Faria but now I doubt it.

 Nice babies! You must have a vast area to grow all these as full-grown chilis. Hope you´ll get a mighty crop to struggle down the throat. Good photos!

 Nikon D7000 with a Micro-Nikkor or Medical Nikkor for closeups.   The pre-growroom in the backroom of the garage. Used to be my kids musictherapy room and also graffiti art room.  Now all the kids are grownups and I have a place to play with my toys.     Have to start the greenhouse season...

 Nice nursery and good looking healthy plants. You might have a problem with the number of plants. Your first season? I go fishing in northern Norway (Lyngen, Koppangen) every year. This year heading to Andröya near Lofoten. I just love Norway and the people. I always prepare TomYam soup from my...

  Overwintering C.cardenasii has very delicate flowers. It had a 2 month break in flowering. No starting up again.     C.tovarii starts its 4th season. Heavily flowering and setting up some pods too.     C.tovarii has very pretty flowers. Sadly the yellow tint of the flower doesn´t show here...

I agree with the comments and haven´t got a clue what the 1st pic chili might be. Unripe 7pod douglah?   Goat´s weed is like Serrano, hairy. The pods ripen in upward position and later start heading downwards.      My individual is a bit hairier than Shorerider´s  friend´s specimen. Strange...

A short history of a DIY NFT (Nutrient Film Technique).               What you need is a plasterbucket, plywood, (water resistant) plastic with knobs, speader sheet film, a waterpump, rockwool cubes and nutrient liquid. A good advice; put a couple of chilis into the RW, you might even get...

 Hi! You can ferment all the stuff you grow. Beans have to be precooked and must have a starter before the process begins. The original Kimchi recipe has fish sauce for the flavor and for the salt that is required. You can have sea salt as a substitute. I have fermented also mushrooms but they...
