A while back I managed to get my hands on some dried pods of a couple of traditional Mallorcan chili varieties, the Tap De Cortí sweet chili and the Cirereta hot chili.
I extracted the seeds and did a test germination. One of the varieties did germinate, but silly me, I did not tag the seeds in my propagator so I do not know which of the varieties is actually growing
...
Initially I did not intend to keep any of the seedlings of the test germination but now I'm curious to know which one is actually growing, so I picked the best looking one and put it in a pot. And here it is, just another capsicum seedling!
I really hope this is the hot variety. I already have grown the sweet one from seeds I got from a forum member so I already know what to expect from that one.
Here's some more info from the vendor...
