Joyner's 2016 Pepper Party - Starting Late or maybe Right on Time!

Getting a late start this year but hopefully it does not provide any impact to yield. I have several plants that started in the cheater tank so not everyone is a seed waiting to hit the dirt. I also decided to cut back BIG TIME on super hots this year and focus more on heat and flavors that most enjoy as well as ones that are most excellent smoked!

glad to see all that color coming in!
 
Congrats Chris! And yeah Thai's are a bugger to pick. I fell in love with the Large Thai this season, larger pods, and less of them....LOL

Stellar harvest as usual Chris! No wonder we haven't heard much from you lately... you must be busy processing all that pepper goodness.

Yep, love finding them like that and letting them die slowly as the wasps grow their domination!

I grew two Red Thai plants this year with seed from supermarket peppers.  One grew true, the other is actually an interesting looking cross.  I'll probably use it for flakes.

Great pictures of the wasp - worms .. the quality is superb and I am sure there is a gardening magazine that would love those or a natural history/ wildlife competition ... good Thai harvest as well

Got home yesterday after a week and saw a few more loaded horn worms, makes me happy then there was this guy standing guard on the chocolate habanero.

My camera is OLD actually but the glass is always epic, I shoot with a Canon 7D and the lens is a fixed 100mm MACRO F2.8. 
 
 
Thanks for the complement.
 
 
Maybe the frog was smiling at the moon later in the night
