Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Yes, I'm REALLY hoping it takes!
Of course, if it does, I honestly have no idea what to expect... but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for something that produces fruit with a nice sweet annuum taste but with a good hot chinense burn.
Thanks, man!Ok wow great log man took me about 25 minutes to get up to date looks like you had yerself an awesome comback season with lots of good pods and now maybe even some hybrids.
Well done!
I look back now and can't believe how much I've actually learned this past season! And now that I've got a bit of experience under my belt, it's time to do it all again....
Don't feel alone on that one. To tell the truth, over the last season, the weather HERE has been erratic too!I envy the growing weather you blokes have 'Down Under'. I live in Wash., D.C. where the weather is documented as being some of the most erratic in the U.S.
Finally a decent harvest! 
A pile of my NOT Dorset Nagas and my NOT Wasps, plus two Choc Bhuts and a normal Bhut.

Yellow Bih???
Nah, just a Yellow Bhut that thinks it's a Bih!

Thanks bro!
I have yet to try one of the big old orange/red mystery things, but am going to do so tonight.
(reports later....)If they turn out tasting alright and have a good heat, I will probably grow them again - even though they are not what they are supposed to be, I have to admit, the plant was crazy productive!
And my Choc Bhuts, they are murdering me! I am honestly finding it hard to find a distinction in heat between them and my Scorpions....
so do you know what those crumpled yellow ones are that aren't wasps? I dunno what wasps are supposed to look like.Finally a decent harvest!

I have some seeds for the coming season from peppermania.com which look crazy, a bit like that. They are called Aribibi Gusano or cattepillar pepper http://www.peppermania.com/db_C-Aribibi_Gusano4.jpg
Just found your thread. You have def. been through a lot last season as well as learnt alot. I'm starting to think that broad mites played a part in some of my problems this season also. Better get some Rogor!
I love the look of those Wasps. What do they taste like and how is the heat?
Good luck with next season, I think you will do very well

I just sprouted some jalapenos last week. First time growing them for me. Hope I can keep them aliveWell, about a week ago at the spare of the moment, I decided to try my hand at some cross pollination. Nothing was planned and I only had a limited number of plants that I could utilize (i.e. that either had blossoms just about to open or were producing pollen).
And possibly a Jalapeno x Trinidad Scorpion:
I won't be holding my breath though as not only is winter rapidly approaching now but both the mother plants are in poor health (my luck, of course, that the only two that take are on unhealthy plants).
Was that one over- wintered or first growth?Yellow Bih???
Nah, just a Yellow Bhut that thinks it's a Bih!
Yeah, I've actually been wondering if there might be some Aribibi Gusano genetics in there.
They are quite hot, but I wouldn't say super hot or anything. The taste is hard to describe - but it is a very strong chinense taste! I actually fried some green ones up with brekky one morning for something different, and I ended up tasting them all day (you know like when you eat a kabana and you can taste it for ages afterward?Just found your thread.

).Something else about them is that they have a very strong chinense smell too. So much to the point that I can even smell them on my hands for hours after chopping them up!
Thanks mate!
Jalapenos are actually one of my favourites now. The ones I grew last season turned out to be absolute rippers!
Hope yours grow great for ya!
It is a first season plant. I ended up pruning it quite severely though due to the plant becoming quite unhealthy at one stage and I wanted to rid it of the "sick" growth. I dare say that is why the second round of pods are much smoother than that of when it first produced.
And ended up with another bowl of peppers yesterday!
