  1. Pimenta de Neyde
    An unusual chinense chili from Brasil with just under habanero heat levels. They stay purple even when ripe and are thus able to hide whether they are ripe or not! I estimated around 6-8 weeks after flower fertilization. I had these in a well it window but they only produced a small handful of fruit. I must try these again.

    Doesn't look like much but a pinch of some of these powders in a portion of food would make you sweat.

  3. This is my tiny grow space where the fun with growing chilis happens. A 80x80x160cm (31.5x31.5x63in) grow tent.
    I used to have just some plants in the windows growing. Only few of them grew well enough to produce more than a handful of fruit here in Germany. So I decided to try a small grow tent with an led light in my limited space. I didn't like the 'exotic' light very much but the 2 COB 80W LED light was just enough to keep my plants happy. I had some chills all year round and I could experiment and have fun with this hobby.
    Of course I since upgraded several things.. :ablobcatcoffee: More on that next toot..

  4. Lemon Drop Chilis. One of my favourite. A Capsicum Baccatum chili with a tangy flavour and great colour. Great in a stir fry for a fresh flavor and in sweet and sour hotsauces. The bushy plants tolerate colder environments better and are heavy producers. They also have pretty flowers characteristic for baccatum .

  5. Jamaican Hot Chocolate. Slightly larger and hotter than Chocolate Habaneros, or so I'm told. I hope I can try the latter soon. Grown under the same conditions with the Reapers. These Jamaican Hot Chocolate chills had a slightly earthy flavour and I found using them for BBQ sauce or Chili Con Carne worked very well.
