Hi Aaron,
hope you are doing welll. Again ... thank you for your contribution into European seed train. I have question regarding your 7 pot Burgundy (small pheno). Is this how it supposed to be ? Very interesting plantTake care.
That is not how I remember it. The pods had more of a rounded shape from the plant I grew, with the occasional shallow lines running vertically on the pepper. Perhaps it crossed with something. I did not grow the peter pepper when I took these seeds, so I don't think its that. Of course it could also just be genetic variation. If I had to guess what it may be crossed with, I would say either a Primo, Chocolate Habanero or a Peach Naga(those three were together with it) , if indeed it is crossed and just not showing some genetic variation. My opinion is its just variation, as the color looks good but I could be wrong. It does look interesting and pretty and looks healthy.
Let me know what you think of its flavor. This smaller pheno is one of my favorite peppers for making powder. Very rich and delicious flavor. I liked it raw as well.
Rouge coloured Peter's Pepper look alike, how interesting.
Still waiting on the Peach variety for that.
When's the train due to start this year? Looks like there will be a few more stops on the way, might be a good idea to start a wee bit earlier?
All newcomers please read the rules:
Once you're on the rider list all you will need to do is PM your name and address to the rider before you so that they will know where to send the train when it's your turn.
1) Package to be sent via registred mail. Use padded/bubble envelope to protect the seeds. Tracking number + link should be posted so we can track it.
2) Put the seeds into small baggies with zip lock. Mark them with variety, (year) and your THP nick.
3) Don't be greedy, take 5 seeds max from 1 variety. Best way is to give more than you take
4) Do not add any heavy seeds. This would increase the postage. Pepper, tomatoe and light weight veggie seeds are Okay.
5) Try ship to next passanger ASAP. 3 days should be enough. If you know you won't be at home. Let us know and we will re-route the train.
6) Do not ship package during Xmas holidays. It gets stuck on the post office. We will wait and ship once madness is over.
7) People from Europe only.
8) Passenger list is not final, we can add more passengers along the way or re-route as needed. Once we start, please keep an eye on this topic.
9) Use "common sense" & have fun !
