i have no friends i could trust with any of my babies, but i do love the glue idea for small amounts of seeds... been wanting to try for a while i just need the glue.
 
yes i have read good reports bout elmers, and i know i have a COUPLE bottles somewhere but cant find them.... and i know i dont need a 3rd or 4th bottle LOL:whistle:
 
the glue seems to work well for large pods but for small i dont think so much. for small pod plants it might be better to isolate in a grow closet type settup.

the taste of these guys i find to be like a sweet and sour candy but hot. not brutal hot but a nice heat.

hear is a pic of several small peppers i am growing this year. the quintisho is the 2 round ones in the middle.
l-r: white bullet, cumariX, quintisho (2), datil-mixed up, datil -real


i hope to post pics of the plant but i would like there to be more to look at so i will wait.
 
Just an update on my Quintisho growing... it is not working for me this year - too much rain and too little sunshine, but one pod formed and plant is looking better again, so there's still hope...:fireball:

Very nice collection there, Michael!
 
Just paid attention to this thread and your quintisho looks very much like a yellow bird I am growing, also a chinense.

Look familiar?

willard3,
yours sure does look very similar. i am even seeing the box like ridges that almost make them look like little pumpkins... i hope to post better pics later along with some flower pics.

Pam,
i am also growing a cheiro but mine is actually larger pod's then your link lists. mine are 2 inch diameter (approximate). how is the taste?

btw the pods seem to grow erect on this plant. also the flowers seem to have a pronounced 90 deg turn at the base.
 
Ah, fun with pepper names. Where did you get your Cheiro peppers?

I haven't bitten into one of mine, I'm waiting on a report from my Official Taster as to the heat. Unlike you silly fellows, I do not like causing myself enough pain to induce an endorphin rush.

It sounds like you are affraid. Do not fear the peppers heat. Embrace it for you will have a bounty of joy afterwards. So says Passow 12:16..............:lol:
 
My daughter has a friend from college, Dave, who fancies himself a chile-eater. He makes a very nice peach salsa with some picante.

I tasted the yellow bird and it is typical for chinenses, fruity with a long burn. I find that all small chiles I have grown are pretty picante, but the Yellow bird is particularly picante.

I gave Dave a handful of chiles and heard back from my daughter that Dave, expecting not much from small chiles, has had his opinion changed on how picante they are.

And what was that thread you started? Ummm...lets see, it wouldn't be titled "AGHHHHH!!! Pepper Juice in my Wound!!!!! AGH! MY NOSE!" , now would it? Did you perhaps mean to title it "Bliss and Ecstasy! Pepper juice in my Wound!!!!! YAY! MY NOSE!"

Little too much embracing, perhaps?
 
LOL some real funnies in here. :lol:

Pam mine is actually called Orange Cherio and i got it from Scotch Bonnet Steve. Taste is somewhat bland and normal heat for a chinense IMO. and the colour isnt really orange but more a peach colour.

Willard yours must be another type of pepper then. The quintisho does have the usual chinenses flavour in there but it is behind the sweet and sour candy flavour. and the heat in this quintisho is alittle less than the normal chinense, more like an annum. the flesh is a bit thicker than normally expected in chinenses. all this combined and i can understand why some folks want to class it as annum and the other want to class as chinenes. but it is a chinense.
