        Yes, all except the Friar's Hat were sown last November under CFL lights for a headstart. These are my less advanced plants, I have had 3 or 4 crops up to 2Kg from my other greenhouse.
        I can't wait to try the Bhuts it's the only superhot im yet to taste and my mouth is watering at the prospect. Im really pleased with the size of them too, up to 3 inches long, a bit of a mouthful when it comes to eating them though

                Thats early, when you gonna start this year? Are you overwintering any?

                I might be tempted to try starting some Nagas around xmas time then I reckon.

                  Im sowing very few new varieties for next season. We're due to have a new baby in the next 2 weeks so i'll have very little time. But I did sow 200 varieties last year and im gradually wittling them down to find my favourites which will be over-wintered for next year.
                  The ideal time for sowing C. Chinense, C. Pubecsens and other slower growing species is Dec/January in natural light, with a heated prop of course. But with my indoor setup I have a controlled environment all year round.

                        Hi Tiachica, nice to see you again.

                        The Scotch Bonnet is really just a form of Habanero.
                        Why didn't Noah just swat those 2 greenflies?

                        Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?

                            To quote Dave De Witt "The Spanish name Habanero technically refers to a specific pod type...the Scotch Bonnet and Habanero are different pod types of the same species". It's like saying Bell peppers are a form of Jalapeno

                                I'm having a funny season. My overwintered Cheyenne is covered in pods and they are begining to ripen. I have more Hungarian Hot wax than I know what to do with, but the pods are taking an age to ripen. I have 6 pods on my scotch Bonnet, one of which has turned red over the last week. The 2 Cheyenne plants I bought from the nursery are 2 different plants, neither of which is Cheyenne1. I have an embryo pod on the fatalli, loads of flowers on the Bhuts , chocolate habs and rocottos, but no sign of pods so I shall have to probably cut them back and try to over winter them.

                                I tried jogging, but I couldn't keep the ice in my glass.
