Indeed, I did. I had itchy eyes and runny noseahayastani said:I think you had a good night's sleep
Impressive!
all evening after slicing all those pods!
Thanks for looking in, Dieter!
This is the first pod to ripen on the Orange Spice.CaneDog said:
Or maybe none at all recently! That's a lot of processing.
Really fantastic to see you with such great results, Paul. After such a slow/ cool-weather start the season seemed a bit in jeopardy. I'm happy to see your san pedro orange getting to the finish line. Mine grew very slowly at first and I had concerns, but now it's a beautiful plant - I'll just have to work to extend its season to get ripe pods.
Interesting about the your orange spice jalapeño mutants. Many (I think most) of the pods on my yellow spice jalapeño are doing the same thing right now in the second wave of pods, this despite that all the pods in the earlier wave were perfectly normal.
There was no 'first round'
The nice weather from mid-July to mid September
was fortuitous indeed. Would have been a dismal
season without that extended sunny stretch.
Thanks for visiting, Doc!
Thanks, Neil. A few dry days will find me bringingdragonsfire said:Great Harvest
in more pods! I hope you aren't too burdened by
cold weather, Yet. I imagine you have freezing
nights, now.
You may have noticed my page topper ducks are all
over the place. After the merge of my Trippaul Threat
and 2020 Grow Logs, it was a b***h trying to move all
the posts back to their right locations. I have finished
that task, but there are some posts still out of place.
Hoping all will be straightened out from here on out.

So many pods Paul, what will you do with all that fruit ?
Congrats!
Those Red Bonnets look tasty, how are they? You'll use them all for powder?
Edit:
The only plant that I had no luck with this season was Scotch Bonnet MoA.... they seem to not like the weather or something.
The first season I grew them they were loaded, but after that, nothing. Still have a few seeds left so next season - another try.

The great majority will be dried and stored whole.tsurrie said:
Giving away as many as possible
Funny, the MoA is one of only three Bonnet types
that have produced well and with a decent phenotype.
The other two were TFM and Beth Boyd. Our weather
here is just not hot long enough to get the spot-on pods,
unless I select my own seed for a few seasons, then some
nice pods appear more often.
Good luck getting in the last harvests, my friend!

Really want to keep this Variegated Jalapeño
going over the winter to keep the variegated
foliage growing out. There are a multitude of
growth tips:
Pods are starting to change color. Going to let
them go all the way to get some good seeds
from them:
Maybe catchthebear will see this and
chime in with what to expect.

So far my experience is anything I put in the ground will get the right phenotypes but only after an initial early burst of off-shape phenotypes. The problem is keeping in ground temps warm enough to finish for me. In the pots the phenos really wander around for me. My scorpions were the worst for variation between pot and and ground. I'm wondering if the different hydrological conditions of a pot throw off nutrient absorbsion and thus makes different pod shapes?

I have noticed the early pod variation here as well.
Same problem you have. Gnarly on-pheno pods
set in warm late summer sun, then hardly have
time to get ripe.
Fortunately this season we are looking at a couple
of more weeks of dry weather, so more pods will
be coming in.
You are a stud for growing peps up there, bro!

Oh man, that stripey-peno is gorgeous. And my jealousy at your antep aci dolma is super spicy...

This is how I do seeds. All the pods go in the
dehydrator but the seed pods still have the
stems on them. Dried at 100*F, the seeds pop
out of the dried pods easily.
Sugar Rush Cream, Aji Benito, Mojo Blue Ghost.
Variety of Trippaul Threat v2 F2 pods.
These pods still have viable seeds, but just
aren’t chosen for seed selection:
