Since this is more of a rant than anything actually related to growing I thought I'd toss this thread in the lounge.....
Ok guys, the Jolokia is starting to look very scary. It rained for a couple days and I was busy, but in a couple days this first fruit is going mammoth! Maybe I just didnt realize how big these things were even after watching videos like THEHIPPIES. It's pointy, wrinkly and still only a lime color. I am very VERY SCARED. Is this a good thing that it's so scary so I can respect it? Or is this pepper so evil that I just want to get it far far away from me. I mean the devil tongue is evil looking, but this is a whole nother level. Maybe my inexperience is showing here, but WTF I saw this pepper and was consumed with ANXIETY.
I am not trying to be funny, This thing is growing so ugly and so big so fast that I am starting to think aliens tweeked it's genetics. THESE PEPPERS ARE NOT OF THIS WORLD![Icon Exclaim :!: :!:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif)
Im sorry I wasnt thinking of at the time so nothing to guague itis size. and i didnt have a quarter on me.
