Hi, this post is about two of my plants and some questions about them, probably already asked somewhere in the forum, but I think it could help someone with the similar "poblems".
First...the ladies:
Bhut Jolokia (2years, first year to have promising fruits):
It's outdoor, good warm weather (30celsius=86fahren), moist soil, not to much, has many little pods, some flowers and some of them are ready to have a fruit, but...the 2 first pods (I thinks it's called pods..I'm portuguese...the little things that have flowers) that had a little tiny green center (probably a newborn fruit) after the they supose do pollinate correctly, falled, and the "foot" of the pod seemed somehow yellowish..I wonder..they have good sun, no directly, allways water, not to much, but I'm affraid they start to fall and I can't get to save mu Bhut in time...Is it a good time to put some ferltilizer?
Habanero Red Savina (?) (3years, second year with promising fruits):
The same conditions of Bhut, but... somehow the same prob, some falling pods that appear to be very nice and start to go a bit yellowish and fall, but note, the number of pods that fall are very few, I'm just trying to check if there is a problem to fix it on time, I know that in many several new pods that they have some will be lost...check the next image. it's a detailed foto of one that already have a little pepper but...I think he might fall:
so... with all of this lame long post...what have some of you to say that may help me keep raising these two beauties in the right way
another question....I have little draining holes in those two pots, should I make more holes? I don't think it has any problems down there.
P.S.: Oh, One last thing..The habanero red savina grew up next to some bhuts and last year he didn´t really had red savina he had some kind of long wrinkled bhut sized peppers but tinner than bhuts,I know they were not bhut and I think it maybe crossed with them and got some jolokeros (I call them jolokeros) is that easy to get haba crossed with bhut? seeing that they're both chinense, I'll post the new fruits here when they rippen to be judge
thanks and hope you have some good tips regarding these two plants.
