Thanks Denniz, since this picture, I have given three large SB in-grounds away to neighbors. That's prime MoA real estate!

Thanks guys!

good germination rates= good seed+SoFla sushine!

The second MoA flower has opened and has 6 petals. The first flower had 5. I demanded this flower turn into the first MoA pod!

This is the last of the large in-ground SB. The other 3 are in the neighbors yard sporting 20 gallon shoes.

Thanks Pia, As a Florida native(rare down here), I give much respect to the hard work and dedication of my chili growing northern bredren. I would love to extend the warmth your way, but "papa don't go where the coconut don't grow!" I will, however, pray to the chilli gods in chi-town for some sunshine in NJ!

 

[WalkGood]

Let me know when there be pods mon

Just made it through your glog - awesome! Watching this MoA Bonnet stuff is fascinating. I love the story and am excited to see how it turns out. Glad you're on the other side of the broad mites - hope those things stay far away from now on...

Thank you for taking the the time to read through the glog Andy! The MoA story is still in its infancy, I have sent seeds to the four corners of our great nation as well as a few strategic locations in the midwest. It's going to be interesting to see how this chili fares in different hands and to see who can produce the "best bonnet"! I have a head start as my first MoA flower has pollinated! keeping fingers crossed!
