First ripe pod....finally

9 years ago

Pulled my first ghost pepper today. Plant has about 30 more green pods. My reapers and butch ts have green pods too. Can't wait for those. Been pulling sweets and milds for a couple weeks so far. My 20 other remaining hot to superhots are loaded with flowers but no pods yet so the flood of peppers will be here soon lol.

Very nice. I have a tree grown from seed for years now. No fruit. Don't even think it's ever flowered. It's about 10' tall but sparse. Hoping to get fruit one day. I'm glad you share this because I've been tempted to cut down my tree.

Those tomatoes look great. BLTs sound delicious. It will be a while yet before my full sized tomatoes are ready. Glad you can enjoy them now. Saw another Sun Sugar turning color so expect they will need picking regularly soon. Sweet Million tomatoes are still green. Will buy some other varieties when the farmers market starts having ripe heirloom tomatoes. Thanks, gorbelly. KBAV, I am curious what varieties you are growing. I also have a Cherokee Carbon, a Brandy Boy, a Sweet Million and a late planted Black Krim that I picked up at the Plymouth Plant Swap. Cut back on the number of varieties this year. Started with two but ended up with these five. Great news, shell. Will be thinking of you picking and eating good tomatoes this weekend. Temps will be in the 90s here. Hot for us but good for ripening tomatoes.

I have a sloooow growing kishu, but it finally has fruit, although it will be a while yet till they're ready. Enjoy! I sent you a PM. I'm not receiving notifications for some reason. My son will be near you in Brooklyn Heights end of this month. He can take it.
