Friends,

I have just returned to my hotel after 2 hours of wholesale green veg Market in Bangalore.
I took a lot of photographs.

I also snapped elusive G4 Hot pepper known as LAVANGA MERUPPUKAI .
This one is really a scorcher. Have some peppers from the shopkeeper as gift.

I plan to make an album for you guys when my trip is over.

Tomorrow, I am planning to go to wholesale Red Chillies (dry) market .
 
Ok, I can show a glimpse of what I captured in my camera.

Actually I went there wnen wholesale market finishes the day's business around 12 Noon. (I reached there at 10 am.)
The quantities in the morning at 7 am to 8 am is huge.
 
Thank you NJA, you have to love this, here I am thousands of miles/kilometres(if you are metric) away and in realtime you are in my house, in a different country, sharing a different culture and giving me "eye candy".
I look up and see my 5 little ceyennes on one of my plants and a couple of suryanki sparatic flowers or my one tiny habanero on a sleepy plant.
 
BC,

We must thank internet and modern devices for this revolution.
I remember when I was young, my village had two valve radios (one in a Hotel and another in a Goldsmith's house) after we got electricity in 1957.

Long distance calls were to be made on those Black phones with stainless steel dials and we had to shout at top of our voices to be heard at the other end.
Pictures on camera needed to be developed and were available after a week or so.And to make a telephone call, we had to go to the nearest city an hour away.

See where world has reached in 60 years.
A coconut seller in India gets fresh coconuts from trees at 8 am in morning and by 11 am, the world sees him selling them .

I dunno where world will reach in next 50 years.
Just see a Curry leaves selling woman on Mobile phone.

"More,more,more..." (there's a song with that also)

Looking forward to your album, safe travels-

I sure love modern communication methods!

NJA I can almost feel the smile on your face. Can't wait to see the album you're planning for us. Thank you a million times for your efforts. Stay safe.
 
Back to your pictures, what type of pepper is picked green(and I am not talking Jalapeno or Serano). When shopping, I go into the foreign food section and see jarred green peppers marked as chili peppers, some are from India, Thailand & Philippines.
In some East Indian/Chinese stores I shop in also have some what fresh green peppers marked as chili but the clerks have no idea what they are but they look similar to what is posted here but not as fresh and tend to be thinner skinned.
My East Indian friend that gave me Suryanki Cluster seeds brought from northern India just called them chilis and picked his green - I had to do the research to figure out they were Suryanki. I let them ripen to red before picking.
