Over watering can cause that.

i hope that's not the case. i'm never there to water them. i'll have to try and figure a way to explain to my girl's dad "no watering unless they look wilty". i tried so many times, but no idea. i think that's what killed my cukes now i think of it.

My unknown mystery crossbred saved seeds. c. chinense i think?? i thought this might be a hab cross. Not sure though. Notice the hooks on the ends of most of them. weird! creepy shape too. :D and one unknown annuum in there that is ridiculously hot!

Nice fat Fataliis.

and they taste good too! funny thing is you can which plant produced which pods. The fatter pods are the plant that has had the most shelter. Did that factor in? I don't know.

Those red habs though, holy crap. I swear they are hands down the best tasting habs i've ever had. For my lunch the other day i was eating pieces of cheddar with some raw slices of hab. It was absolute heaven!

So since the fish are ripening, i'm now waiting on my vietnamese mountain peppers to ripen. It's loaded with pods. Wait until i get pics. Gorgeous plant! The scozzese is also producing beautiful white pods. I'll have to get pics before they ripen.

I'm still waiting on my rocoto to set fruit. It gets a lot of buds, but not one fruit. It's basically a gigantic flower maker. Frustration, freal. And my late start 7pots are growing fast, but so far not one bud. I wish i moved them out sooner, but i wasnt able to.
 
I'm really enjoying my Red Habs too, fresh, powder and sauce. Good luck with setting fruit on the pubes. I tried em last year and only raised some pretty purple flowers. Gonna try em once more next season and give em plenty of shade when the heat of summer bares down.

Don't feel too bad. Mine are doing exactly the same thing. Not one pod. I am hoping it sets some pods at the end of September when it begins to cool off but who knows. I will probably overwinter it and see if it does any better next season.

yeah it's just frustrating when you have pods everywhere, but nothing on the one.
 
Some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that even though i planted scotch bonnets, i have yet to find a single plant. My favorite pepper, and i have none. :(

The good news? I found ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL my missing bhut jolokia plants!! Hell yeah! Better than that? All 3-4 plants are LOADED LOADED LOADED with UGLY mothafuggin pods!! MUAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA Twas too dark for pics, so next time i get out to the farm i'll take some. Also, i have more fatalii than i know what to do with. I'm in pepper heaven!

Well, it can be tricky, but I like running a zig zag pattern ;).

:lol:

I misplaced markers and some stuff didn't make it, so it was quite easy. nothing seems to be what it was supposed to be of most of the saved seeds. i'm not overly concerned, but it is a headache.

and yeah, christmas it is. i can't wait to have my own private reserve naga sauce. :mouthonfire:
 
So i'm working my hustle and trying to sell some superhots at my office. Sold only 3 so far. 3 for $2. Bunch of rubes don't know the difference anyway. Bonus is i get some hots to have with lunch. Sliced a suspiciously scotch bonnet smelling "habanero" onto my turkey burger. It's now an awesome lunch.

And yeah, pics will be taken. I also have a thai-like anuum that will take at least half an hour to harvest properly. hundreds of ripe pods on that sucker. no exaggeration either.

Thanks for the kind words guys. :)
