My 2009 season

2009-01-01 Today I started the 2009 season. I planted the capsicum chinense, capsicum pubescens and one capsicum frutecens and one capsicum exmimium.   Here are the peppers that I sowed:   7 POD chinense Aribibi Gusano chinense Bhut Jolokia chinense Bhut Jolokia Chocolate chinense Big sun scotch bonnet chinense Cajamarca chinense Clavo chinense Devils Tounge chinense Fatalii chinense Habanero cappuccino chinense Habanero Condors Beak chinense Habanero white giant chinense Peruivan Serlano chinense Pimenta da neyde chinense Purple hazel chinense Super Datil chinense Trinidad Douglah chinense True Jamaican Scotch Bonnet chinense Vinagrito, PI 281441 chinense Bradleys Bahamian frutescens Chile de seda pubescens Hyper pube, cap 217 pubescens Pi 355811 (aji rocoto) pubescens Rocoto cusqueno pubescens San isidro pubescens Brown Rocoto pubescens White Rocoto pubescens CAP 500 exmimium   Within a month (or two) I will start to germinate the caspicum annuum and capsicum baccatum

More peppers in the soil, late Peruvian Pointer and some stuff from the Andes

I have put these peppers in the soil:   Goats weed annuum Jalapeno Grande F1 annuum Jalapeno purple annuum Marconi Purple annuum Numex pinata annuum Peter Pepper annuum Purple jalapeno annuum Serrano purple annuum Lady Violet (bellpepper from russia) annuum Aji amarillo baccatum Aji colorado baccatum Ají Panca (ou Ají Brown) baccatum Baccato da orto baccatum Blondie baccatum Bubba baccatum dedo de moca baccatum Ethiopian Peppertree baccatum Jamy baccatum Peppadew baccatum Polumbo baccatum   As always I have some problems with the germination of some peppers. Some of the must have peppers (7 pod, Trinidad Douglah, Chocolate Bhut Jolokia) has been sowed one more time.   I have also put some Physalis pruinosa in the soil.   I got the news that the White rocoto is white yellow (pale yellow). Here is another picture of this "all winter flowering plant"   I love this time of the year to buy pepper related food. In Stockholm we have an excellent store that sells food from Peru, Bolivia and Chile. They have loads of pepper related stuff. Here are some of the products I have bought.     Last one of the very late peppers;) Peruvian Pointer - one of the overwintering plants. Also one of my favorites.     Regards   Patrik

Matured pod of White Rocoto

Well the White Rocoto turned out to be a yellow capsicum pubescens. In some angels in seems to be somewhat paler than yellow rocoto. This pod is more than ripe. I did expect it to be more white than this But anyway it was very tasty and it was quite hot.     a comparison White Rocoto and Clavo (c.chinense)

Long chocolate habanero

Today I took my Long chocolate habanero plant inside. It has been outside uptill now. I also brought the Hybrid of Habanero White giant inside. There has not yet been a night of frost. A few plats is still outside. The Rocopica is crazy it sets flowers now outside in these cold temperatures! There are frost warnings later this week.   Regards   Patrik

Kaleidoscope, Thai Hot and Monkeyface

Some new pictures:   Kaleidoscope Capsicum baccatum Kaleidoscope Capsicum baccatum Thai Hot Capsicum annuum Monkey Face Capsicum annuum   Kaleidoscope was recomended to me from a pepperfriend, it has no or very little heat. Thai Hot is a capsicum annuum from Thailand and it is easier to grow here in Sweden (from what I have been told) then the Thai bird peppers that belong to Capsicum frutescens. There are two versions of Monkey Face, one yellow and one red -I grow the yellow one.

Hybrid of Habanero White Giant

My Habanero White Giant turned out to be a hybrid. In my opionion it has very beatuiful pods (from light green to yellow to orange to red) and the plant is also prolific (which usually is the case with f1 hybrids). Another bonus was the taste, really nice and typical capsicum chinense. Hot but not extremly hot. All in all a very nice and useful pepper.   Cili Goronongs pods has very odd shapes, but some pods does not turn out so "crazy". Just look at this "pepper flower".

Hot Pepper Lantern outside

My indoor pepper plant Hot Pepper Lantern Capsicum chinense outside for a bit of fresh air.       Pod of Serrano Purple – some purple but mostly green at this moment   Flower of Jalapeno Delicias, I believe this jalapeno should have a milder heat than a “regular” jalapeno

Hot Pepper Lantern - a Christmas pepper

Hot Pepper Lantern capsicum chinense   This is one of my indoor plants. I can harvest the pepper almost all year long , these pods were harvested yesterday. It is very easy to remove innerwalls and seeds from the pods. It is also tasty and quite hot. Recomended.

Here I go again:)

Ciao my dear pepperfriends!   A big update is coming. Started sowing 1 january 2011. Planted some later in January and February. Now is most time for repotting:)   The peppers that I am growing this year (some missing)   Aji Bolivian baccatum Aji Pineapple baccatum Aji from Viña del Mar baccatum Dong Xuan Market baccatum Inca Red Drop baccatum Jamican Bell baccatum Pimenta Barra-Do Ribeiro baccatum Mazaroni River, unknwon pepper from the rainforest in Guyana Capsicum sp 7 Pod Classic chinense 7 pod Jonah chinense Bhut Jolokia chinense Carmine Yellow chinense Chocolate Bhut Jolokia chinense Habanero Cappucino chinense Pimenta da Neyde chinense Scarlet Lantern chinense Trinidad Scorpion chinense White Habanero (Mild) chinense Datil Red chinense Serrano Stuard annuum Pimenta del Piquillo annuum Red Olive baccatum Peter Pepper annuum Kaili Mirch annuum Trinidad Bush annuum Heatwave annuum De Arbol annuum Ros De Mallorca annuum Alexander annuum Hot Banana annuum Big Banana Red annuum Pimento de Padron annuum Sivri Biber annuum   also was given these peppers by friends, hard to say no.   Friggitello. (do you know anythig about this one?) Pepproncino rosso. Bishops Crown, I will compare it with Jamaican Bell (Is there a difference, some people say that there is a difference) Mini Bonnet. Habanero Dulce.   January - germination of Habanero Cappucino   This mystical pepper looking up from the earth, I call it Mazaroni River as it found near the river in Guyana. It was found there by Orchid Hunters. Fruits are oval shape about 2 cm and germination occurred so quickly suggests that most of it is a Capsicum annuum. (Now confirmed annuum). My guess is a "wild or at least half wild:)" annuum.   The roots of Inca Red drop above ground?!?   Reppoted for the first time, picture taken some weeks after reppoting.   Dont know if I want to grow this one, just tried the germnation. I belive all the seeds came up. Quite good for a wild one. Capsicum lanceolatum.   Pimenta Da Neyde   Pimenta da Neyde again   Overvintred Chocolate Bhut Jolokia, 6/3 2011   Mazaroni River flower   Harvest time in april, a pepper that (the seeds) was bought as Yellow Bhut Jolokia (overwintred plant).   Have a great time my friends.   Ciao   Patrik

Harvest time soon!

Even though I had serious problem with bugs eating up my pods and leaves outside in the garden. The peppers in the greenhouse has done quite well. The small greenhouse has really made a great difference when it comes to the chinense peppers   Pretty n Purple,   Unknown chinense and Sangria (annuum)   Inca red drop, second harvest   Pimenta Da Neyde - hard not to love this pepper:)   Habanero gives a nice harvest this year.   Naga morich   Trinidad Douglah   Limon, capsicum chinense   Best regards Patrik

Harvest time

After a couple of days of very nice weather with warm nights (last night it was 14,5 C) there are some colder weather coming. I harvested some plants.   Guindillas is quite hot even as green. In spain it is used green. Second harvest with 49 pods;)   But there are still many pods left outside under some cover though, Cap 1492.   Korean Hot Capsicum annuum, is also still outside.   Aji Verde Capsicum baccatum, is also still outside.   Sweet Nardello
