Nice gift! I've said it elsewhere, and I'll say it here, I really loved my Trinidad Scotch Bonnets last year. Wonderful tasting pepper!

The gifted Foodarama SB plant(Denniz) top middle, gifted Trinidad red SB plant(Jamison) bottom middle both lookin good! BTW Jamison I still have the smaller TRSB!

First MoA pod forming oblong and not living up to the hype! :mope:

Thats ok, 3 new flowers have opened and another has set!

This is what SB perfection looks like! Now start producing perfection soldier!!!

Denniz clones showing new growth! Left Foodarama SB clone, right Fatalii clone forming small bud in middle!

Check out this monster! This is a Peppermania Jamaican SB from my 4' in-ground!

Nice pods but all flat. bonnets need both "Cup" and "Saucer"!

Don't sweat the first pods shape...the first couple are always a bit wonky. You got pods...that's more than most everyone in the northern hemisphere!

+1 I was going to say similar ... I would expect since the plant is so small the better shaped & larger pods will come as she grows bigga

Pulpiteer · Mar 23, 2013

Yep, I'll join the chorus, the first few pods can be different. Once that plant really gets going you'll have a better feeling for the pods she'll produce.

Thanks for the imput my bredren! I agree. Give it time.

2013 plant out complete. 100+ plants

Famous Foodarama SB, 2 seed sources. note: seed sources more famous than the Foodarama SB

P. Dreadie-Select SB. Very excited about this strain! Left, Trinidad red SB(Jamison) upgraded to temp 1 gal n. pot. Right, CCN SB also P. Dreadie seed

Jamison · Mar 24, 2013

that's awesome you saved the little guy! gonna have a boatload of pods man. 100 plants, wow!

Sanarda · Mar 25, 2013

Well done Steve. Now its just a waiting game.

PIC 1 · Mar 25, 2013

The 1st few pods are the most inconsistant. Give it time and the clusters will all appear similar. Then you can hype it up !

windchicken · Mar 26, 2013

Looking good Steve! It's always exciting to see my name in print, too! My overwinter Foodarama here in Louisiana is sprouting new growth and beginning to feel its oats...

I'm guessing that even at the Min of Ag research station they don't get 100% cup-and-saucer pods...

I get maybe 50% "stinger tails" on my Trinidad Scorpions...but every single pod kicks ass!

windchicken · Mar 26, 2013

Lol...I just noticed from the photo of your Foodarama containers it looks like Greg and I are in an in situ Foodarama grow-down... :cool:

Yeah, he's in a half gal nursey pot and doing well! 100 plants sounds good but giving away the majority!

Thanks Pia, I suck at that game! "Wooosah!" Your Lolitas are coming up to be some fine young ladies!

Thanks Greg, I agree 100%. The other potted MoA's are starting to flower up something wicked and a few have set. One plant in particular has the first 2 flowers set pods each having 4 sections which lead me to believe they have a good chance to be 4 lobers. Very excited about this plant in the future.

Can't wait for some SB Foodarama pod porn!

MoA 100% cup-and-saucer, no. I do expect nothing less than 90%!!!!

The Trini scorps you sent me were kick-ass! The heat(relentless) from the powder makes me think twice about about how much to use!

Steve your plants are loaded with flowers. Are you using any nutrients ?
How's the 1st MoA pod coming along...I bet you can't wait until it ripens to taste it.
The flavor is what its all about.

" ... Every MoA plant is very consistant with creamy 6 petal flowers ..."

Brethren that's awesome! I can't wait to stop by and check dem out next week \o/

KiNGDeNNiZ · Mar 28, 2013

ever thought of cloning them MoAs??? very easy peasy... now as far as clones having buds already... i guess they are wanting to be in bigger containers..

No commercial nurients. I try to stay as organic as possible. Ground egg shell, orange/grapefruit/lemon peels, coffee, coffee grounds, the occasional fish tank water! But I do this to all my plants. The believe the loaded flowers is due to genetics in the MoA strain. The TFMs were not even close in flower production with same conditions. Here is a shot of the first MoA pod. Only 3 sections and ZERO lobes! Altough it is bumpy with a covered with little pimple spikes......interesting.
