Of course.  Capsaicin builds character .

 

[Devv]

LOL, and makes one think twice too!

 

[Sanarda]

Ill grow it out if you dont mind.  They look very interesting.

 

[Pulpiteer]

That's a beautiful shot...

Of course.  I'll get back to everyone once the season is over to get the seeds out...
 
 

That's a beautiful shot...

 
Thanks.  They're all just slowly drying out.

 

[Dot Com]

Nice work! Your crosses impress me!
 
Camera works not too shabby either

I agree. Very unique crosses make this Glog interesting to follow.

 

[Nightshade]

Do those tepin x Barrackpore have more meat to them than regular tepins? They look pretty good

Yeah, they're different on the inside, chinense aroma and pretty darn hot...

They are AWESOME.  Very unique flavor and burn.  Love em.

Glad to hear the Tarahumara taste great.  So far all of my Amarillo Chiltepins are the same color as your Tarahumara.  Do you have any approaching yellow?
 
Amazing and Hot looking pods you have Charles!

The two Chiltepin Amarillo from two different sources are actually very different from each other.  One is huge (so large it's hard to believe it's really a chiltepin) and a strong orange, the other one has yet to ripen...  I'll post pics when they do...

 

[Durham Bull]

great looking pods Charles
 
my Naga Morich doesn't have that (carrot-like) shape.  It's short & stubby like the Suomi

Yeah, I don't know what the hell to call these things anymore.  Lol.

Sonoran Chiltepin x 7 Pot Barrackpore F1 harvest, F2 should be interesting... just need to find a few people who might want to grow them out:

 
 

 
Those are perfect, Charles! Can I still take part in the  F2 grow?

 

[Spicegeist]

Yes of course Gary, I owe you a few things.. I owe a few people a few things... I haven't forgotten, just waiting a little bit so I can try to tackle most of my seed send-outs all at once.

 

[windchicken]

Thanks! I dig that...For my part, there's certainly no rush...Germ time is still months away...

 

[Portuge]

Those F2s will be something to watch out for... Gonna have to wait and see which parent they resemble on this go around....

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]
