Hopefully my seeds will be here at the start of the week and i'll be into it. i didn't really have a clue on what would be heavy croppers so i just choose a couple that look good. I've got Jayboc, sugar rush cream, Corno di Toro Rosso, Klavo peach,7 Primo Hybrid AKA ‘THE GOD STOPPER!', Bad...
i have been a bit lazy with supporting my plant and finally got around to tying it up. its has to be 2m tall now and absolutely loaded with pods. like Bob it has really cooled off in North east victoria and we almost had a frost the other morning. I'm just hoping to get another nice pick off of...
These are a comparison of the plant i originally chose. the small heat effected chilli's and my other plant. much healthier pods.
considering i have about 15grams off of my original plant if there are no objections i will start using pods from my other plant. these are the first mature pods...
Finally another weigh in. I chose the wrong plant. this was my strongest plant but its in a pot. one of the smaller Citos i planted in the garden and forgot about is smashing it. Twice the size. Still not producing as many pods many of your plants though.
Its been a long time between picking, i had to go back 4 pages to find my original post. Only 3 more picked but the up side is there are plenty of pods on the plant.
3 pods. 11 grams for a sad total of 14g.
I thought i had better post a couple of photos of the plant i finally decided on. i do have another nice plant that i plant in the ground which will probably come back too haunt me for not choosing that one.
Its still growing well at the moment with a lot of new shoots and extension of the...
This is my Sad total at the moment. my plant has been in a growth spurt and dropped a heap of green pods and now i only have half a dozen green pods on the plant. Hopefully all this extra growth will make up for it later in the summer.
I picked the first chilli for the season. It didnt even weigh 1 gram. i was devastated so i decided to eat it. they have a little zing too them.
(sorry for the crap photo)
I had the same thoughts as you and couldnt find something i wanted, thats why i went the dodgy home made Bamboo and cable tie support. im a sparky there isnt a job you cant get done if you have electrical tape and cable tie's.
Thats a fair old pile of chilli's there Karoo. The weather has finally warmed up a bit and all my plants have picked up their game a bit.
i have my first pod changing color and plenty of new flowers now after a few warm days.
Looking good guys. my plants have stalled although you cant blame them as we have had some pretty bad weather this week. snow for 2 days then just cold and wet for 3 days. They have been inside without direct sunlight.
Ive got pods on both plants im still trying too decide between but they...
Weekly update.
Not a lot of visible growth i can see. pods are setting though, counted 10 on the plant at the moment.
i built a new enclosure for the plant and untied the branches hoping it would start growing again.
Not much to update at the moment. the weather has been sunny but still fairly cool days so the growth has slowed down a bit. they are starting to set pods though. i think i have 6-8 on my bigger plant and the only other one i am watching has set its first pod.
Update time.
Ive been away for a couple weeks so my plants havent recieved all the attention they could have. i think i have decided on my best plant but there are still 2 in the running. The bigger plant has been replanted into a large pot where i hope it will stay. the second plant will go...
Weekly update.
So the plants have made the move from the grow tent and are tasting the outside world for the first time this week. they wont be going in the ground yet but they will be moved into the sun each day. Larger pots will be in order also.
