Leo72 growing season 2019

hello to all, my growing season has already begun for some months, I'm 'cultivating mostly wild and pubescens, recently I also added some chinense and ornamental annum, many plants are already great in pre flowering, others are born recently .
the first part of the cultivation I did indoor, 110w neon lamps and 50w led light, the second part of the cultivation is outside the cold greenhouses until the temperatures will rise again, this will happen in mid May.
some varieties I'm growing are:

c.caedenasii
c.tovarii
c.flexuosum
c.praetermissum
c.chacoense
c.chacoense purple
wiriwiri
c.praetermissum cumari pollux
c.eximium
c.galapagoense
baccatum var baccatum (brasil)
baccatum var baccatum (bolivia)
jamaican bird
Romboideum
C.lanceolatum
brown rocoto

C.cardenasii
 
Cardenasii flowers are looking nice, Leo.  Your upper pic more purple flowers look identical to my USDA Card's.  My CGN Card's are lighter, but not as light as the flowers in your subsequent pics - which are really cool.  Do you know a reason for why those are so lightly colored?

the plants are different not only for the flowers, one is thinner with small and thick leaves, the plant with the lightest flowers has bigger and less thick leaves, the plants live in the same environment therefore the different coloring of the flowers and the structure different of the plant is not to be attributed to cultivation in the absence of sunlight
 
C.tovarii

Really nice, Leo. What got you interested in the 'wild' varieties?

I find that the wild have a special charm, take care of them trying to understand their needs, some varieties are difficult to grow and need different treatments from common domesticated peppers, I find them good also from the culinary point of view, on the table they never fail dried fruits of chiltepin or frutescens
 
Hey Leo.  I'll second what Paul said, your wilds are looking great.  It seems like you're getting good production from your Tovarii.  I have a couple 1st year Tov's growing this year, but despite them being big healthy plants with flowers and pollen by the ton, the actual pod set has been quite modest.
 
I'm curious what variety Eximium you have pictured above.  I'm growing a CAP 1491 currently I've been super happy with.

hello, it is the first year that I cultivate the c.tovarii, a part a low germination I have not had any particular problems, it is true they have many many fruits, unfortunately a short winter event and if they do not ripen I will have to make them good quantity of seeds.
not so the correct nomenclature of my case, the seeds I received were without any identifying code
