Pretty flowers on th C. rhomboidium.

An interesting plant, indeed, Dave.  The pods are starting out teeny, up inside the calyx.
 

Great harvest! Probably worth alone half of my season!
Also, yellow flowers are beautiful!

 
Hey, Giancarlo!  The pods are small, but there are lots of them  
 
I'll be interested to see how those c. rhomboidium pods turn out.
They have to be dinky.
 
 

Great pictures and update Paul! Glad to hear the Cabe Gendot has a great flavour and heat as well ... Keep the pictures coming!!

 
Here's another of your progeny, Tristen - the baby pods from the F3.  Wow are they hot      
The pale yellow color is to die for.  If the mature pods
are like this it will be awesome!

 
Also, the Cili Goronong is ripening up the last of the babies.  There must have been 70 or 80 of them!  
There are about 4-6 new large pods with the mutant hot dog look coming on- you can see them in this pic:

 
Another baby pod vs. mature pod comparison.  This is the Yellow Naga Brain:

 
 
Lots of interesting pods developing at the moment.
 
Looking good for the Primo:

 
These Datil look mean 

 
The Red Bhut Jolokia that picked up a purple gene:

 
Baby Chocolate Bhut Jolokia:

 
The NGWH yellow Scorpion is showing some real possibilities:

 
The Inca Lost is repeating last year's performance:

 
Cheiro Recife set a ton of pods in a short time:

 

[tsurrie]

Wow. Great looking pods Paul! Those are gonna be Class A.
Looks like you're in for a rich season.

 

[PeriPeri]

Hey Paul, been off the site a few months... wow buddy this is just awesome Looks like you are doing what you do best - dazzle us with your genious and them amazing plants! Keep the pics coming buddy!

 

[PaulG]

Thanks, Uros.  I hope everything is good for you this season.
 
I'm keeping my fingers crossed

Me, too, my friend.  I don't get around the forum much these days.
Maybe when the winter slow-down comes!  I suppose you are starting
to think about getting a grow underway about now.
 
Thanks for the kind words; this has been a good season so far.
The great weather we've had makes me look good!
These pics (and the last two sets) are a week old.  The progress in pod development
since then is amazing.  Will try to get some current pics in a day or two.
 
These are Chili de Agua peppers (Oaxacan Market).  
Sweet and mild at the tip and firey at the top.  Bright
red when ripe:

 
Sureño Peppers.  A Serrano-like Mexican pepper:

 
JA Red Mushrooms beginning to set mature pods:

 
The Large Orange Thai has set a bunch of pods.  My neighbor said it looks like a bush bean plant:

 
Hope all is well around the forum.  More pics in a day or two.

I did not grow my lake valley strain of Jamaican Red kinda wish I did but really don't know where I would of fit them
Mom has some that I started late so was kept stunted but then where nursed into growth.
They are loaded with pods but are putting out the off pheno that some did last year so most likely will be a golden color
I think a Jamaican Red crossed with an moa would be good but do not know how viable the seed would be
Your pods & plants look great best of luck sending good vibes your way

Those F3's look freakin sweet Paul!! Well done !! I hope they stay that colour ... That would be an almost perfect outcome of my initial plan when I made that cross ... However all the credit for the development of the cross has to go to you. Kudos my friend!

I hope that Cili Goronong plant produces the size and quantity I know it's ancestor did. Great flavour and medium/hot heat to boot!
Your season is going along mightily .. long may it continue

 

[juanitos]

the reclife are cute.

 

[cypresshill1973]

Nice plants! you will have a great harvest

 

[Trident chilli]

Great early tail on the Yellow Scorpion Paul ... I hope it turns out to be a classic ....

 

[maximumcapsicum]

They Cili Goronong pods are beautiful! Are the mature pods the same size?

Thanks, Jason.  You'll have to put those JA Red Habaneros on your list for the 2016 season!
Hope your season is going well.

The pods on the F3 don't look like they will be as big as the F1 and F2, but there's lots of time left for them to grow!
 
The Cili Goronong is putting on the gnarly pods now:

 

 
 

the reclife are cute.

 
They turn a nice crimson/carmine when ripe.
 

Nice plants! you will have a great harvest

 
Hope you are right - it's a long way 'til Fall.
 

Great early tail on the Yellow Scorpion Paul ... I hope it turns out to be a classic ....

 
Thanks, John - almost all of the pods are sporting nice tails.  
It will be fun to watch them grow.

Hey, Adam.  As you can see in the pic above these are about 2"
in length.  Don't know how big they will get.
 
Some nice, big pods on the Chili de Agua:

 

 

 
The 'white' Goat's Weed is ripening up some pods:

 
Little Brain Strains:

 

 
The Large Orange Thai, about 32" tall now.  The pods have turned a lighter green, it seems to me:

 
They are good-sized pods:

 

[PeriPeri]

Awesomeness - these plants are looking mighty happy... loads of poddage! You are in for a bumper season my friend!

Thanks, Lourens!  We've had a banner year weather wise so far.  
We could use the rain, but we've had just about non-stop sun
since the beginning of June; very unusual for here.  A couple of
close to 100˚F (38˚C) for the weekend, then back down to the 80's (29˚C).

 

[PaulG]
