Yeah, a few months ago it produced about 30 really nice big fat ones. Towards the ripening stage of those 30, the plant then started putting out an absolute sh$t load of flowers... everything went strong (green leaves etc) until the plant was covered in small pods. Then it got too cold, too...

Thanks Moyboy, but I need to keep my chilli's raised up out of doggie reach, and for that, the planters are a very convenient size. Sometimes i shift the chilli's around in the planters. When i do that, i take a large serrated bread knife and cut the potting mix like a loaf of bread. I then...

ahh ha ha ha ha!!! all that lovely green vegatative blood everywhere... Like Arnie in the end of Commando "so what did u leave us John?" "Just boaadies..." lol

Crikey, i had no idea an orange hab would commonly pump out that many pods. Its the first time one of mine has done it. Do u guys let em all grow or do u pinch off half of them? Hey Moyboy, yeah its in a pot. Two orange habs share a 22cm w x 22cm d x 60cm L planter. I keep most of my chilli's...

Good people, One of my orange habs recently tried pumping out over 300 pods at the same time. After a while,they became stunted, and the plant showed signs of mag and calcium deficency. I've corrected my fertilising regime now, and have pruned the plant right back. My question is: why did...

Thanks guys for all ur responses, it puts my mind far more at ease. If all ur dogs out there have tried em and survived, then i guess my two boys will also... who knows, maybe they've learnt that lesson already :mouthonfire: I might do a controlled lesson like RJC suggested. Think i might put...

Good people, What are your experiences with chilli's and dogs? These days i'm growing more chilli's and hotter chilli's than ever before. My plants are raised up out of doggie reach, but i'm a lil worried that they might eat a fallen chilli or chew on a broken off branch with chilli's on...

I'm with u there Razorback? I've had that exact problem in the past (exactly the same)... and have seen it developing again recently. Would love to know what folks think it is... it didn't seem to adversely affect my chilli crop tho. I asked around at a few nurseries (took some leaves with...

How often tho...

So ur basically saying that a cross pollenated flower grows genetically x'd seeds within the developing pod (irrelevant husk). The pod's (husk's) DNA is unaltered by the pollenation process, and only the seeds within have altered DNA. The DNA of the pod is the same as the DNA of the parent...

i'm tellin ya, u guys are crazy !!! Don't get me wrong, one of my fav's is a steak, smeared thick in chutney, with a whole juicey orange hab nicely chopped up on top.... but, there is no way in gods green earth u could get me to eat a whole naga straight. Like i said... ur nuts!

I find this "food for thought" if u'll pardon the pun:) Been on this site less than a week now and already its paying off... I'm in Perth, Western Australia... winter has arrived. For us here that means rainy crappy days, with the occasional frost in the morning although we haven't had any...

Cool stuff LGHT, mine are planted tanks with predominantly barbs, catfish, loaches and sharks. Been into it since i was a kid :)
