How can you harvest pods? Is it a different plant this time?wordwiz said:Are these the only peppers you have or do you have others? Is there a difference in how you have treated it
I have bunches of pods on mine which I look forward to harvesting.
A long story short: I sowed a packet of Thai Dragon seeds in the soil last year, but didn't see a single plant come up. The Sunday before a major frost was predicted, while I was pulling up other plants to add to the compost pile, I found about six of these things growing. Carefully, I dug them out of the ground and put them in containers to bring inside.
Thanks to lack of knowledge, inexperience, etc., only one survived, but I was happy. Then it got heavily infested with mites (I think - little red bugs) that almost killed it. Got rid of them, trimmed the plant back and come early January, new sprouts were starting to show. I was in 7th Heaven.
Then a cat knocked it off a stand, causing it to land on its head, lose a bunch of potting soil and suffer several broken branches. It never recovered.
