thanks baha

most of these were planted 9 January, so three months from seed...

by the way...I am gonna be picky...these are not Bhut Jolokia, they are Naga Morich...my bhuts will be transplanted within the next week, along with my Bih Jolokia and Dorset Nagas...I also have Naga Jolokia (thats what the guy called it down in Key West). Last year, I told myself I was going to grow all five of the Bhut/Naga peppers and by gosh, I am dang sure doing it this year...I want to see the differences for myself...I wonder if number of peppers per node is really a discriminator...

They look super AJ! I don't have a lot of room to grow a lot of plants (believe me, I would if I could) since I live in the city. I just have a couple (2 or 3) of each variety and pamper the crap out of them. Lotsa fun.

I suspect that once my indoor plants hit the outside, they will show some wear and tear until they get established in their containers. Whole different world growing outside with too many variables to control...

That Naga is perhaps my best plant this year...we'll see how it goes.

:cool:

The nagas are also said to contain some C. frutescens, and I haven't heard confirmation on whether the bhutts or Trinni varieties also contain these genes but I've always said that nowing this would clear up a lot of questions.


According to an article that I have read I think form Harold Zoschke in Germany for the fiery foods and bbq website, Dr Paul Bosland was quoted as saying that the Bhut Jolokia did have some frutescens genes in it. I don't think it was a lot but enough to say that there were some.

I am jealous. I need to get mine hardened off already and out in the sun.
Yea the rain is getting annoying and there is more on the way.
 
Great looking Naga's Petey, or I should say they're still looking great. You have the "naga" touch.

Nova, man oh man I'm sorry I'm just now seeing the photos of your Dorset. That thing is awesome!

it seems like forever Petey...needless to say from my experience, a long time...

I was just reading an article that said the maximum capsaicinoid content in three different varieties of peppers (habanero, deArbol, and Pequin) happened at 45-50 days from fruit set...
