Say, Cayenne?

Shandley · Oct 30, 2012

Yeah, I was a sucker who bought seeds off eBay. Never again. None the less, are these Cayenne peppers? They just started turning orange (perhaps a red stage next).

They look like my Cayenne Indonesian that I am growing. About 4 - 6 inches long and turn red.

I also got Cayenne peppers thinking they were Butch T's from a seller off e-bay, never again. At least I got my money back after lodging a complaint with e-bay and contacting the seller. He said he made a mistake, ya right. Boileranimal

I contacted my seller and he actually sent me some TS Butch Ts for free to make up for the loss with major apologizes. He told me he did not know what seeds he sent because he bought the "Butch Ts" from a supplier as his supply ran out. None the less, it's a great plant and I'm excited to make some hot sauce out of em.

Cayennes are great. They are very versitle, but are not what you paid for (and time spent). They look like the long red type of cayenne.

Is the big pepper on the right side of pic on the same plant? The reason i'm asking is, i had a pepper that looked just like a habanero grow on a jalapeno plant loaded with jalapenos. I stupidly pulled it off before taking a pic. i have been growing peppers for a while and have never seen anything like that before.

Shandley · Nov 7, 2012

That's the same kind of pepper. That is actually 2 peppers but the angle makes it look like a big one. See the crease down the middle? That's where the front pepper curves tot he right and the back pepper curves to the left.

They're still nice looking peppers.

Shandley · Nov 7, 2012

Thanks! They're inside now because we're expecting our first frost this week. Unfortunately, the freaking aphids are now rampant.

LOL! Pretty much!

Yeah, it looks like a long slim Cayenne. I grow the larger thicker variety which is not as hot as the long slim type both are very tastyand makes a great flavored powder.
To bad its not the T.S. you paid for in the first place.
I just got done spraying my plants that I had to bring in with a soap and pepper spray to kill white flies and aphids which are trying to take over the extra bedroom where I keep my plants in during the winter. Hope you have good luck getting rid of your aphids.
