PepperJam

Garden is doing great in the raised bed. It follows that clustering technique everyone is raving about. Each plant is 1 foot away from the other. Its becoming a pepper forest. Here are the plants in april 3rd.

Everything is looking VERY good! I hate to be the first one to say this, but that 2nd "Yellow 7" REALLY doesn't look like a 7 Pod. The first one you showed is the real deal. But, like you see, they should NEVER be orange, and ANY point, if they are Yellow 7's. They look KINDA 7 Pod'ish, but may be crossed. Either way, the pods outta be fun!

Sharp eye! You are right Hot Pooper, it was a mislabel. They are chocolate bhuts and yellow bhuts. I fixed them.
 
i am liking what i am seeing here

any comments on the differing heat levels from say one red hab. to another?

have you got some in the square and another in a fiver?

edited for more stupid nitwit interrogatives

would you be able to compare the different red habs with a coin or ruler
so i can/might be able to tell how big 'yours' are
 
Well done square foot gardening bed plants look very healthy and producing pretty good. The bird peppers are beautiful and really should be considered an ornamental as well as great tasting peppers. Will you cluster you plants again next year? Congrats on the almost ripe pods. :mouthonfire:
 
Thanks everyone for the compliments. I am really excited. This is my first year growing superhots, let alone the Chinese variety.

The habs just become red. Haven't had the chance to eat them yet. Yea i have one hab, yellow and choco bhut in 5 gallon containers and some in the raised bed. Sure i'll compare the sizes. I think the raised beds habs are bigger.

Yes, i'll continue clustering the plants in raised bed. This will be my first year to attempt to overwinter which should be interesting as each plant's roots are intertwined with eat other's i'm sure.

The thai peppers are awesome. i love using them in thai cooking and making thai fish sauce with peppers mix. I sometimes bring some peppers to my favorite thai restaurant for added heat :mouthonfire:
