Fresnos are very slightly hotter than Jalapenos.
Actually. the afore-mentioned peruvian lemons, while not as chunky as a Jalapeno, are decenctly hot but have enough meat on them to be sliced and pickled.
Cayennes are another that spring to mind. They are usually dried and powdered but they are a fair sized fruit with plenty of heat. They do produce the odd rogue fruit too so beware. I cooked a yellow one in a chilli at a bike rally a couple of years back that nearly made me pass out. Apparently I was wandering around the campsite wittering incoherantly with red eyes and pupils so dilated they thought I'd been off getting stoned in my tent.
EDIT: The more I think about it, please put pickled cayennes on a pizza and feed it to people. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

Thread resurrection?
Thread resurrection.
For those who want to and have the heat and light to do so, it's coming up time to get planting them chillis.
I've just taken delivery of my seeds this year.
I've picked Aji Lemons again because they make cracking chilli con carne.
Purple Jalapeno for pickling, thought it would be interesting to have a different colour.
Joes Longs for Indian cookery, shoudl be able to have them green or red.
The Hungarian Carrots are supposed to be among the more hardy ones, I want to try growing them outside. Likewise the purple tigers although these are more decorative. I thought I'd give outside a go again after last year when we had self seeded tomatoes sprout up and produce ripe fruit.
I'll be planting them in small pots, 2-seeds to a pot in a top quality, soil-based number 2 seed compost with added perlite and enfiched with homemade compost. They'll be going in a heated propogator frame in our South facing porch. I need to take care to allow them enough ventilation this time, last year my first batch of seedlings rotted through the stems from being too humid.

Took the final Orange Habs off 10 days ago....still flowering.

In the past have cut the stems down hard. Dosed heavily with Nitrogen in March. Got a second years crop......but the pods were smaller. Unsure if this was because plant in second year and hacked in half, or soil re-used (even with fertilizer, maybe it was the salt / acidity buildup in small pot).
Anyway. Orange Habs from last years seed, collected from biggest pod.
Cold snap won't have helped germination. Might do some in paper towels in airing cupboard and pop in soil once sprouted.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 3 years, 67 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
