Tridents - Fifth Season Bonnets/Hybrids 2018

Snowdrops out and the early signs of daffodils are abundant here in the U.K. ... we are reminded that winter is all but done however looking at next weeks temperatures I am not so sure. I am late this season I normally sow between Christmas and New Year but last season I was too advanced and the Growtents were bulging before I could get the plants into the polytunnel.... my propagation is crammed full of all sorts of chilli seeds germinating away after their tea soak ... big year for me as I retire in June but really looking forward to this season as I have managed to secure more true Bonnets and a few new Bonnet Hybrids. A massive "thank you" to all that have helped me continue my Bonnet/Hybrids/Hot Chinense journey especially Simmy, Justin (WHP), Sandra Tipton (Foggia), D3, Bhuter, Chiliriot, Gentetikx, Jeanie Y, GIP, MikeUSMC

They stay purple inside when they ripen?

Really nice money shot John, looks like you're in the sweet spot now! I notice you didn't mention SB varieties much... have you gone completely over to the dark side? [emoji6]

Rick I like to keep my hand in on some of the other varieties but could never not grow a mass of bonnets... yes I am holding back as the larger pods are now starting to colour just a shame that the great weather we had is starting to fade ... meteorological autumn 1st September so I can't complain I have had a bumper season the best for a long while and I will keep going to the first frost. Look back in a couple of weeks and I will hopefully have a full harvest of bonnets

 

[Devv]

Nice haul John
 
It seems we both have short seasons. My spring season is hurry up before the hot weather comes, and I'm getting less inclined to carry them to September-January nowadays as so much to do here..

 

[Ghaleon]

If all those bonnets are anywhere near as good as the TFM's and MoA's, I'm jealous. Though the chocolate SB is my current king of bonnets.

 

[Trident chilli]

Wow harvest looks fairly massive.
That last close-up is all SB Rodney Bay?

 

[Devv]

Most excellent money shots John!

I brought back from St Lucia three varieties... Rodney Bay was one of those but the biggest in size was Castries. The biggest SB pod I have grown this season

Thanks I have had a cracking season if you need any seed give me a shout

Recent harvest due to some branches breaking after high winds which caught the poly tunnel and blew over some plants

Think somewhere along the line this variety crossed with a BBG

Again another cross this was supposed to be a Red MoA

Dave Minor - Chocolate Bhutlah compared to my Scotch Bonnets these were brutal

These were not much better in heat .... Justin’s UBSC Brown x SB

Tobago Faria very prolific this season

Christopher Phillips “Chris Fat Red x Jigsaw” .... lovely plant baring nice shaped pods with a fair amount of heat

Great photos. The color on freeport orange and the matte look of the sb cappucino. Wartyx sb is interesting. Maybe I mis-remember this, but i think MA is also responsible for borg 9, which has bubblegum parentage. Either way, I like its soft color too.
