Feeling a bit excited about my chillies! 🌶️ Today, I planted them in the community greenhouse and mulched the soil with straw to keep it from drying out.

Fingers crossed I didn’t plant them too early—weather forecast says it'll drop to 9°C the coming nights!

First day outside and enjoying the sun.
In a few days, the chillies will move to the community greenhouse, but there isn’t enough space for all 20 plants.

A difficult decision—which ones will stay at home, and which will go to the greenhouse? 🌶️

Good morning ☀️
Time to let the sun in and open the shutters. The chillies are already a bit grumpy that I’m still in bed and haven’t opened the bedroom window yet… alright, alright—here we go 🌶️

I really can’t resist. Now that the chilies are next to my bed, I just have to say good night to them: “Good night, darlings.”

I do wonder if plants dream....

New sleeproom mates 🌱
Today I welcomed three new chili plants (Sibirian house pepper) into my home. Since the living room is already taken over by lemon drops, dragon breath, and UFO chilies, these little guys earned a spot in my bedroom.
Falling asleep and waking up surrounded by these beautiful plants… not a bad vibe at all.

Awww, I just can’t stop watching them. This little chili plant — a Lemon Drop — is only a few days old, and she’s already looking so pretty. 🌱

Isn’t she gorgeous?!
This Buschpfeffer chili plant is absolutely loving the sunshine, and watching her grow makes me so happy. 🌱

The warm weather convinced the chillies to grow but this year it’s sloooow 🌱... and only 17 out of 30 seeds have sprouted so far.
Still playing plant detective - Why did only half make it?
Too cold during the day (less heating while I’m out)?
Or did I accidentally use seeds from a hybrid plant?
What are you thinking? 🌶️🌶️🌶️

This year my seeds are clearly on strike. So far, only three brave souls showed up — two Buschpfeffer and one Lemon Drop. The rest are still hibernating.

Apparently 17°C in the living room felt like the Arctic, so I moved them to a “tropical” 19°C. Let’s see if that convinces them it’s time to grow. 🌱

Oops, I may have accidentally planted 4 types of chillies! 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

* Lemon Drop: Mild & productive
* UFO: Using 3-year-old seeds (fingers crossed!)
* Dragon Breath: For a spicy sauce project with a dear friend
* Buschpfeffer: Early harvest

Let’s see how they grow!

Making choices… the spicy kind.
I’ve got more than 10 chili seeds. The last two years went way too well, so this year I’m challenging myself: only 3 chilies.
But seriously… which ones?! 🌶️🤔

* Lemon drop
* Ufo
* Habanero
* Dragon Breath
* Purple Haze
* Buschpfeffer
* Muite Forte
* Mini Till
* Dorset Naga
* Chile Passila
* Black Hearth

Oh wie schön. Die Lemon Drop Samen hängen beim SeedExchange in Halle H. Neemt sie euch gerne mit und tauscht fleißig.
