This thread is going to be a photo dump of my 2024 season. Expect lots and lots of photos as things progress throughout the summer.

Luna is already on guard duty just 2 days after transplanting.

Big Olive Mama. This was a personal favorite from 2023, and I knew I had to grow them again this year.

MA Purple. This is my first year growing this variety. I'm definitely loving the purple foliage on this one.

White Knight. This was a freebie seed pack that was thrown in with one of my orders, and since I seem to have incredible luck with freebie seeds, I had to grow them this year.

Finally got to experience the Beast last night, and after doing so, I'm really glad I didn't chop this plant down earlier in the season. Because it was the ugliest plant in my garden -- and still is -- but the pods it produces are so menacingly beautiful.

Thick walled, oily, super fragrant, and dumb hot. My whole house smelled like this pepper after dicing it up, and 15 pieces on my tofu banh mi sandwiches was more than enough to light me up and taste the Beast in every bite.

Peach 7 Pot. I'm not sure how true these are, but I like the color and the shape. If they have heat and good flavor, I'm keeping seeds for next year.

White Knight. These definitely aren't like any of the photos I've seen of this variety. But the seeds were a freebie pack, and I'm really impressed with the productivity of this plant. So I'm keeping seeds and seeing what pops next year.
