Mncdk's tiny collection

My little collection of 4 plants... (Updated from my intro thread http://thehotpepper.com/topic/48486-first-year-in-danish-climate where I also had pics)
 
Datil Sweet

I'll probably not keep this when it's pod season ends. Unless it turns me around. I'm not really finding myself to be a fan of it's flavor and aftertaste.

This has to be awful to not be a keeper. It's just too pretty. :D
 
Naga Morich

I fully expect to NOT have this next spring. It's just not the kind of chili I feel I should have started out with. I'm not sure why I grew this. Oh well. :D
 
Aji Cristal

I have high hopes for this one. I hope it tastes great, as I'd like to keep this. I won't keep it unless I like the flavor though.
 
Depending on how much space I have for next season, I'll probably look at something like Jalapeño and/or Black Scorpion Tongue (the latter because I have some seeds lying around)
I also have a few others, though I don't expect I'll end up growing another Naga or the Moruga Scorpion seeds. I have some Rawit seeds that seem interesting though. A little spicy probably, but for whatever reason I'm drawn to the pod size.
 
Yeah they are in separate (tiny) pots. It's all I could get my hands on. I didn't want to invest too much in my first year, so it will do for now, hehe.
 
They are very tiny though - on hot days I have to water the plants twice, or the leaves will lose their stiffness and eventually start hanging straight down. :D

These are really coming along now! :D

More red pods than yellow now. Going to take the seeds from the 2 biggest pods up top. :D

One is beginning to change color a little bit, looking forward to see how they progress. :)

As soon as my tiny harvest is off the plant, I'm halving this plant as it can't hold itself up, even with this tiny amount of pods.  :D
I have already pruned the top pretty aggressively, and even cut off a bunch of early pods that grew too high up, but still it wants to lean over.
 
I'm going to mix up some ground beef, onion, bell peppers & tomatoes up tomorrow, and I'll get a nice mix of chilies in there too.
I'm thinking the reddest Aji, 2 BR & 2 Datils should give a good mix of flavors to beef. I'm still trying to find a way to use the Datil. I haven't found something I like it with yet.
