All of my various chinense in the buckets are podding, (everything from 7 pots to fatalii and trinidad scorp). Strange thing is all the immature pods are soft. That's not right is it?
I've only had habs before, and they weren't like that when immature.
The only hab that had soft pods before, ended up dying after dropping leaves, branches dying off etc).
But these new plants in buckets aren't drying out, dropping leaves or have any dying stems, the plants look OK in the main. So I don't know if it's a heat issue, a watering issue a deficiency or they are all diseased, or what.
Anyone had soft light green immature pods on an otherwise healthy looking plant?

I said a long time ago I would put up pics of my chilli disaster. Well I can finally bare to look at it... so can you.
Before
After
These pictures were taken a week or so after I had given up and stopped watering, so the damage is exaggerated but you get the idea. It was a definitely an infection or bug or mite that ripped through them. Not helped by me probably.

@megamoo - that's nasty. Sorry to see it.
On the weather - one thing I have noticed is that even tho the day temps are high, the overnight temps aren't as bad as they were earlier in the year. Difference around my way is that the plants dont look like they have been in an oven all night by 8am in the morning. In fact, today I didn't bother watering until I got home - and then only minimally.

That`s sad to see, having lived in Perth for five years & growing for all that time im finding it hard to figure why that happened.
Are you sure its not wifey/neighbor sabotage? did you over water them perhaps? to much ferts? when i was watering there i gave them all a light drink at around 9pm & then a good soak at 6am before i set off for work, never during the heat of the day.

Nice pic! Can't wait to see the ripened version.
Does anyone know where to find Steinernema in Australia. I want to get rid of those annoying gnats.
I don't know where to find Steinernema, but used Sciarid Kill (from http://www.nutriflo.com.au/Hydroponics-Shop/Pests%20&%20Diseases/Pesticides ) and a few yellow sticky traps to wipe out a very bad Fungus Gnat problem I had.
Only took 2 drenches (about a week apart) and then around a week later.....no sign of them.
