Damn man! You really have got to stop with all these awesome updates! You are making all of us mortal growers look bad...
LOL. But both those Scotch Bonnets and Choc BPs look great! Have you grown the Choc BPs before or is this the first year? How do they compare to the regular ones?
Matt... lol. I'm merely a mortal grower myself. It's good ol' mother nature's lending hand that really set things off. That and all the knowledge that i have learned here, put in practice this season.
Thank you on the updates. I don't make it home till dusk most of the week, so Saturday is an update on the garden for me. And things are progressing, so always a new sight to see. Glad to share!
Reality is setting in though. Time to buy a chest freezer, like pronto! Pods are everywhere!
The one TFM is on point, couldn't be any happier about the shape. The taste is going to seal the deal i hope!
I am really like the choc barracks too. Digging the shape. I didn't even knew there was one, until I saw it on a list when making a trade early this year. This site and the people here Rule btw!
This was the green q-tip spout that raised from the dirt. Don't know if you caught my story on it, but it wouldn't have survived in nature without my intervention. Came up with fused closed cotyledons. Picts somewhere earlier in this glog. Was wondering if anyone else grew these and had the same things come up, but haven't seen or heard of anyone yet.
So i really know nothing about these. It may not even turn brown. Who knows? It's little bro is in a root pouch and starting to gain some ground. It too was a q-tip spout. I'm looking forward to seeing if it's pods are shaped the same or not.
But love the pods on that one!
My regular barrackpores are not growing like i thought they should look. I seem to remember seeing longer shaped pods for barrackpores, and mine are throwing more squat pods. First year growing them also.
Digging your advanced soil mix project. You got me researching.

Great update! The pods are all fantastic. My favourite this time around was the 7 infinity.
Thanks Stefan. That plant's first pod was picture perfect and one day i noticed it went missing. I mean perfectly shaped, almost round, stinger tuck up in and showing some bumpy texture. So i see the stem had been severed, look aroung and find it on the ground. Something snipped it clean off. Was bummed. Almost two week later that one and another set. That one is only half as good as the first pod that set, but better than the other one. Still like it and all, but damn these bugs!
Silly aren't I.
So today I decided i want to change my avatar picture thingy. So played with an image editing app on the phone and there i am.
Here's the full size shot. Red brain pict previously posted.
And got a quick shot of another color changing event before nightfall & after a quick shower rolled thru. Choc scorp!
Also see the reaper flower that set is not alone. And that first one's baby pod is showing characteristics that i like! Fingers crossed.
Night y'all!
