Inca's 2011 Grow Log... !

2011 ......... here we go : season 2010

Still not sure about the varieties i will grow this season, but i know 1 thing....i want some Tovarii this season !
So i've sowed some seeds (15 tovarii's ) just to be sure ...and to my surprise 6 of them have allready germinated

this season i will grow some 'common' varieties aswell. I just need a lot of madam jeanette's (all time no. 1 chili, for me) for cooking and sauces, and some Japanese hotties, packed with flavour; Takanotsume and Okinawan hot pepper, later i will sow some Shishito aswell.

Here are some pic's of the progress so far :

First of all, here's something strange ......
I have 2 plants of the ulupica x exilium and they don't look alike at all.
1 is 'normal' green and the other 1 has dark leaves; let me show ya what i mean :

The green 1

The purple 1

Both of them in the same shot :

Can anyone please tell me what is going on here ???

 

[inca berry]

here the same problem, 2 tepin unknown....don't look the same to me......?

This one has much darker, and different shaped leaves....

 

[inca berry]

Again now with 2 tepin Amarillo's, take a look :

Amarillo 1

Amarillo 2

Both of them together

You can clearly see the difference between the 2.....

 

[inca berry]

One more, again a tepin...this time it's the chiltepin....

again see the difference :

chiltepin 1

Chiltepin 2

Here the difference is just the leave color...number 2 has much darker leaves.....

The first black vs green looks to me like one got daddys blue eyes and the other got red hair from mommies side. Somewhere there is a recessive dark pigment gene.

The second looks like two different kinds. Perhaps it is one is a wild and the other a domesticated....

Third pair looks all good from here

I say run with it and enjoy the differences. I would keep some seeds and mark the bags well to see if they reproduce the same as the parent plant. Whatever you are doing, keep it up. They all look great!

Thats strange couse none of the parents have any hint of purple

Thanks for the tips, i will mark them and put them in seperate bags.

Can't wait to see the end result !

I'm having a hard time keeping the aphis under control, spraying doesn't work, none of the soap/chili/garlic.. mixes works.....
so today i bought myself a little army:

I hope this will kill all the aphis....but i'm sure it will These little buggars eat 100/150 aphis a day.. :o
