2014 - The Year of the Red Capsicum pubescens Takeover

This will be my first year in very long time growing hot peppers & the main ones will be Red Manzanos & Red Rocotos with a few Biggie Chile Hybrid & Maule's Red Hot (Cayenne type) thrown in the mix.
 
So far I have these above soil and growing...
 
1 Biggie Chile Hybrid
2 Red Rocoto
 
Not above soil but germinated...
7 Red Manzano germinated and placed in pots (red beer cups)
 

 
Germinating in paper towel & ziplock baggie
12 Red Rocoto
 
I may also grow some brown morugas from thepepperlover.com
 
Any questions just ask

I love Manzanos/Rocotos, so good luck with those. I`m growing a couple of pubescens varieties, too!

I don't know if I like them or not, but I'm sure trying to grow a bunch this year.  Just potted up 18 Orange Locoto seedlings to 3.5" square pots today.
