First ones up 2017

Hi!
First ones up. It's always exciting to follow the development of the varieties.

• White fatalii (Capsicum chinense)
• Pequin from Ischia  (Capsicum annuum)
• Pimenta cumari  (Capsicum chinense)
• Bode vermelha  (Capsicum chinense)
• Bunda de velho  (Capsicum chinense)

Here they are under the growing lights.


Hot regards, Mats

White fatalii

Hi!

Finally. My white fatalii is ready to pick. It's taken a long time for it to develop, and it's not so easy to see when it's ready. But the white colour has deepened the last week, so I gave it a try.

Started with a small pod. It should be perfect for our tomato soup :-)

Hot regards,

Repotting Saturday

Hi!

Time to repot 8 of my varieties this year. They are growing fast, and need bigger pots.

• Serrano
• Pimenta cambuçi
• Chile de arbol
• Aji chinchi amarillo
• Mareka Fana (Berbere)
• White fatalii
• Peperoncino (Roumanian Giallo)
• Dedo de moça 

It's not very often I see the roots develop 2-3 cm up on the stem. They look like swamp plants. I guess it's been too humid in the mini greenhouse.

Check out these long roots.

And here they are. Now located in the kitchen window. 

Soon we will end up with peppers everywhere. But I do grow less varieties this year. So I hope it will be a controlled chaos later on :-)

Have a great weekend!
