Where´s Tarzan? Mighty jungle you have. I love it.  Any life in Mutants?

I have a big compost.

Hi! Starting a new glog here. Skipped 2016, not growings but keeping here a decent glog was too much. Been pretty sick and so on. Okay? I start by a small list what I´ve already sown.   C.pubescens   Rocoto Java PI 585273 Montufar Rocoto Peru rojo Pisac amarillo Rocoto Peru Puno Orange Rocoto...

 OK. I didn´t open the link. Sorry. Homemade not possible?

   I disagree. Try to put a can or a bottle into a 100% humidity ground cellar with a plain inkjet printed label attached - 3 weeks and you can´t read the text any longer. Protection is a must.

    I make can labels with Corel Draw and print with a regular inkjet printer. Then I spray the print with a glossy acrylic laqkuer, both sides, 2-3 times. Glue to the bottles and if necessary cover with a piece of adhesive plastic (the kind that is used in covering books). Keeps the print...

    CAP 1491 has lots of berries. Obviously likes to grow in a hanging basket.     C.prae CGN 22795, survived the massive aphid attack.         Ulupica XL F2 still flowering heavily.     Maybe these are the last pics of my greenhouse season 2015.  

Welcomes come also from Finland! Very healthy and beautiful plants. 10+!

  Just about the end of the season.     Fairly decent sized rocoto.       Some Nagas.   Today´s rocotoharvest; 4,4kg. On the left Ulupica XL F3 and one De seda.The rest are Riesen gelb, Montufar (PI 585273) and Santa Natalia.

  C.annuum Candlelight mutant.     Somehow one of the descentants end up in an Italian plant show/market. With a salty price.

Well that I didn´t see. Thanks justecila for this good info!     Pic of my plant shows really the same baccadots. The leaves look like frutescens´ or annuums. What is the location of this species in the genus map?   Naga in the mood.     C.eximium CAP503

   I cut it down and threw it to compost. It vacuumed all aphids and was suffering. Pods started to drop and it had hardly any leaves left.     Not much of a crop. The plant reached 3m height.

  Naga ripening.        Rocoto riesen gelb. The pods are between 100-150g.     Here´s 20 pods in a bucket.

  A Lance without leaves.

Ronnie, you should put at least 3 PI 585273 Montufars in hanging baskets. The earliest rocoto to ripen 4 months from germination. Just cover from your heavy winds and they´ll manage under +16C temps for a long time. Light is a must because the original growing area is at the altitude of 2000m or...

   The hanging baskets I use are 10 litres but 12 l would suit rocotos better. Next season I´ll install an automatic watering system to keep my wife happy. Then we can go for a holiday trip without worries for at least a week. I have already bought Blumatsystem but i guess I was just lazy not to...

   A bit similar to Aji cristal. A pleasant taste and medium heat with good productivity makes it an allround bacca. Hard to get seeds though but I´ll send you some later before November. That is the time to sow Rocotos, especially this Riesen gelb. I wish I can brake 200g limit. Got several...

    Jalapeño mammoth.      C.baccatum Pi355814.     Jalapeño Agriset 4103. Useless sort; no heat nor taste     Rocoto Riesen Gelb.  

  Here are the 4h smoked rocotoslices going to be fermented. The ingredients are; 3,5 kg of lightly smoked (apple wood) rocotos, 55g of sea salt, onions (should be more but our chicken dug the small ones off the soil while searching worms), garlic (160g specimen in  the bucket). The ceramic...
