First pepper comes from Scotch Bonnet - day 155

This year all my peppers are late. At this time, last year we already had nice crop of Cyklon peppers. I dried all of them and as powder they were enough for us until now.

This year we grow Scotch Bonnet, Cayenne and Zvonek - you can see the size they have reached in May just before they went to garden.

Looking at the time of blooming and fruiting, my conclusion is that first half of March is too late for us to start the seeds. Coming year I will do it in February.

Look at this first fruit of Scotch Bonnet. It has surprisingly nice shape.....

but surprisingly small size (this is one of the smallest coins I have in my pockets) .........

Such small size is not surprising at all if you know that the plant was in the constant flood in June - in fact, I am surprised it is still alive and producing fruits. Coming fruits seem to be bigger.

Day 45 - Growing organic Scotch Bonnet (Naga morris) - Capsicum Chinense

Growing organic Scotch Bonnet (Naga morris) - Capsicum Chinense, Day 28

My two Scotch Bonnets I grow from the seeds coming from grocery shop, got their second pair of leaves. Now is time to start to add fertiliser.

Growing Hot Pepper Scotch Bonnet (Capsicum chinense) - day 12

Scotch Bonnet (Capsicum Chinense) seems to be very vigorous - I germinated fresh seeds taken straight from the fruit bought in the grocery shop.
This is day 12th from the day the seed was placed in the small turf-pot for ensuring better germination temperature - it should be about 23C/73F.
I place little pots in small plastic containers, to make the conditions moist enough and then I place it on the heater. It takes 10 days to make seeds germinating.
