How are your Limo Blanco plants coming along?

My sole plant has not grown anything like my other Capsicum Chinense varieties. I suspect that I will be disappointed later this season. :neutral:

That's a shame. They are my fastest and best growing plants. I'll see if I can find a photo from couple of weeks ago. Give me a few mins.

Bought this about a week ago from Kambos! It was $40 but I couldn't help myself. A grinder especially designed for chillies!!! They are made in Germany and even have another type with flames on the bottom :cool: but it wasn't at this store.

Limo Blanco suspect among other seedlings

The front row on the top beginning from the left is Scotch Bonnet TFM, Jamaican Hot Chocolate, White Bhut, Limo Blanco, Limón, Limón and Beni Highlands. I'll take a better photo when I have a chance. I took this photo near the time of sunset.

My Limo Blanco plant leaves are unlike the similarly developed Capsicum Chinense plants in the photo. The C. Chinense plants are showing their characteristic hunger for Calcium via the leaves.
 
So its the tall one? Hmm it does look a little different to mine? But having said that it did shoot up quick. Anyone else grown it?
I can't really tell what size your pots are but are there roots coming out the bottom? Maybe time to pot on?

Yes, it's the suspect in the centre of the photo. It's a head or two above the rest of the seedlings. I sowed my seedlings in 10 cm / 0.5 L pots. I've yet to see roots come out of the bottom of the pots. I try to repot the seedlings once they've grown 6 true leaves. I plan on transplanting it into a 17.5 cm / 3 L blue pot like the one visible in the row below.

I hold a glimmer of hope after seeing Habanero seedlings with foliage unlike the other Capsicum Chinese plants from last season mature and produce pods that tasted like those produced by the other two Habanero strains.
 
anyway lets change the subject :)
If youre in Wa and after Butch T, Yellow 7 Pod, Douglah, Bhut, Naga, Jonah 7 Pod or Red Peter Pepper plants check out this http://www.thehotpepper.com/topic/25859-superhot-plants-for-sale/
 
Wow ... where have I been lately ... just realised I haven't posted for ages but the Rugby World cup and some holidays seemed to get in the way of things for a while.

Everyone looks like they are going well for the season.

Personally I can't complain either although I have put off re-potting some of my smaller plants for well over 3-4 weeks and they are starting to hate me for it.

On the good news front I am giving one last try to get some Fatalli , Douglah, RHF-1 and Bulgarian carrots soaked and germinated , although its late to try to get them going I thought I may as well.

I also have my first 3-4 new Yellow 7 pot/pod fruits forming, Super chilli's starting to ripen, plenty of numex twilight pods coming along and same can be said for the Aji Lemons. ALthough all of them need a new home in bigger pots to survive the coming summer months and fruit a little better I think.

I will post some pics soon hope everyone is in good health and happiness.
