Looking great bdaspy!  As someone with only the occasional ripe pepper trickling in, I'm in awe of your poddage.
 
Field of dreams gettin' bushy too!
 

 

[Mr.joe]

Looks great, I'm unsure how you are going to get to those middle plants, but it will be fun to try.

thank you, it hasn't been as hard as you might think. if i had more space or planted less it would of been easier. but i used up every square inch i had. lol

picked a few more pods this weekend.
 
sweet sunset.

 

 
I nicknamed this one john holmes for obvious reasons. lol
 
this was the first pepper to start growing in the garden. I wanted to wait till it changed to orange or red but it was taking forever and was within an inch or two of the plants size already so I picked it.
 

 
 
random pickings

 

 
sliced black and purple jalapeno to get canned.
 

 

 

 
 
first ferment experiment this year, started Friday and its already bubbling good. fresh local blackberries that I picked and jalapenos' from my garden. added some fermented garlic, that might explain the quick bump in activity.
 

 

 

 
how it looked on sunday

 

 

[BDASPNY]

finally some heat is building.    my gf took these pics while I was at work. the scotch bonnets are finally producing.
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
bishops crown putting out some pods.
 

 

 
 
and the pickiest plant ive ever grown is finally ripening some pods.  (habanada) it'll go from bushy and green to nearly dead looking dropping leaves all over  and back to green. all while producing many pods that take forever to ripen.  maybe it needs more specific care than im aware of. none of the rest of my plants have done this.
 

 

 

[BDASPNY]

todays haul!
 
my reg jalapenos are on the bottom row.
 
there will be stuffed peppers for dinner.
 

 
these are the hybrid jalapenos
 

 

[Mr.joe]

Looks good.

more pods picked this weekend.
 

 

 

 

 

 
few plants are loading up now.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 
and started a new sauce. blueberry jalapeno
 

 

 
 

 

[Mr.joe]

Great looking pods, I was just happy having pods on my plants still a ways from harvest. Interesting sauce you have there, someone sent me an email( i think it was Pepper Joes)about a blueberry sauce.

thank you.    I picked both berries myself at a local orchard/farm.  thought it might go well together. I googled and found people make jam and compote with a similar combo so I thought a hot sauce might be good too. hoping it comes out well.

You've got a legitimate pod-factory over there.  Great stuff!
 
This one looks like a formula bottle for the ultimately chile-head baby.

 

[PaulG]

Pods are really rolling in for you, Scott.
The bush in front of you is pretty awesome,
big guy!

Your ferment pics are motivating me to try
my hand at some. We have lots of blueberries
and black berries coming in now.
