breeding Best Large Jalapeno

[midwestchilehead]

Anyone down for a largest jalapeno contest 2023? I found some huge ones at my market and saved seeds, one was exactly 5" (stem not counted of course). I was thinking of trying it. @Pepper-Guru @Downriver @Bou @Sinn @Crazy Monkey @MarcV @PaulG @HellfireFarm @Pr0digal_son @midwestchilehead @Grass Snake @PollenNut @HeatMiser @Tinkerbelle099

Sure, I'm in. What the hell?

 

[Downriver]

Dropped some seeds in the mail. Curious to hear how they come out.

Look out bitches!



@The Hot Pepper So, where we at with this Boss?

 

[The Hot Pepper]

I'll post it up when I get a chance.

 

[Fatalii Attraction]

Awesome. Glad they came through.

I'm late to the party but Reagan Parkinson (Flamin Devil) grow some very decent sized Jalapeno Chernobyl (and sells seeds too).

 

[Fatalii Attraction]

Those look downright sinister.

What are they crossed with?

I can't, tell, I just remember seeing this recently

 

[MarcV]

Can't really call those jalapenos...

I believe it's another cross from Italy if I remember correctly... I've never grown it so I don't know how it tastes or produces

Is that a jalapeño in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?

Maybe we should try crossing a jalapeño with a thunder mountain longhorn...

I believe that cross has already been done with a Farmer's Jalapeno x Thunder Mountain Longhorn, but it certainly can't hurt to recreate the wheel. Personally, I would consider Jedi, Black Magic, or Mammoth in such a cross if it were to be repeated.

The F7s are up and look good.

I have been hit or miss and consumed by life. Sorry for the lack of replies. No pepper motivation this season.

How was germination? Any pics?

he's bluffing

 

[Fatalii Attraction]

Hopefully not!

I thought I overfed them when I potted them up, but they exploded instead. I'm not sure what the upper limit is on feeding these before they burn, but it's pretty darn high.

Just saw this. Germination was excellent - 3/3. Plants are still kinda young/small, but I'm was keeping them that way on purpose because plantout was over a month away. Now it's time to start growing. Just increased warmth, fed them and increased light exposure. I'll take some pics the next photo day. They'll be producing the winning pods in no time!

 

[Downriver]

Look out bitches!

Like I said:



And it's still green! Y'all can just fade away quietly

@Fatalii Attraction, lookin' good!
