#chillis — Public Fediverse posts

I think it might be the heat, my jajapeño chillies keep ripening while small. So these ones are going into tonight's stir fry, along with a few African birds eyes. Hope to pick a bunch of green jalapeños soon for a pot, if they can stay green long enough!

#chillis

Here's a couple of samples of this year's superhot #chilli varieties from the #allotment greenhouse, the big one is a Naga Morich which is our core "superhot" - it is a classic, hard to beat for balance of heat/flavour/aroma.

The evil little pointy bastard is a 7 Pot Primo and... wow... this is our first year successfully growing some (we tried and failed last year) and I thought the Naga has a "presence" when I cut it, but the 7PP hit me in the face with its aroma by comparison. There's a lot going on in this little chilli.

I am conservative in my superhot growing, basically I have a slot for the Naga as our core sauce-maker, and I have a slot for one "other" - this year it is the 7 Pot, next year maybe something different. I am tempted to make it 2x "other" superhots next year. (For context: things like scotch bonnets and habaneros do not count as superhots as nowhere near the million scoville mark, they're merely the "hot" chillies.)

RE: https://mastodon.social/@chillicam/115289358605477078

That's a second sprout! But in the mystery pot :|

2 is better than one, but I'd like more again.

Managed to knock up four little jars of pickled jalapeños whilst making dinner. Not bad going.

Approximately this recipe: https://chillichump.com/honey-pickled-jalapenos-pro-food-processor-tips/

It seemed apt since the jalapeños we are growing are Chilli Chump's "CC Jalapeño": https://chillichumpseeds.com/product/cc-jalapeno/

We have two of these plants at the #allotment, with one in the greenhouse, and one in the polytunnel, plus another at home in the porch (an overwintered but somewhat neglected plant.)

Garden 🌶️ harvest - 3 kinds:
the Long, the Short and the A Very Good Morning to You

#Gardening #Chiles #Chillis

Right, have organised all the little germinated chilli pots so we I can do a proper assessment of the status of things... key question right now is: what is missing? Given I have germinations from both 7 Pot Primo and Naga Morich anything that hasn't germinated yet is very suspect:

X7 - Big Sun Habanero, last 2 seeds of this, some old seed (Feb'21), no surprise, not that important a variety for us tho.

X9 - Orange Drop, last 2 seeds from Fatali Jan'23... I do have some dehydrated chillies from 2023 I could try seed from.

Y5 - Yaki Blue - newest seed, Jan'25, from Chilli Chump... 🤞🏻

Y14 - ZERO Padrons :( - despite it being the variety I planted the most seeds of! These are some of my older seed (Dec'22, not ancient) so perhaps "that follows"... and I need to buy some more seed, pronto!

The biggest problem there is the padrons, I cannot imagine a summer without some padrons on the BBQ. (We barely had any last year, but did manage a handful.)

The reaper seedlings have had to be upgraded to these giant water bottles I found in a hedge which appear to have blown out of the bins of a care home. If I ever end up in a care home, I hope the money is spent on staff wages and not bottled bleeding water.

Anyway, all #chillis thriving despite the cold. I'm going to have to deal with the Khang Starr scarlet rose plants at the weekend before they get too big. So off to look in hedges for bottles again.

#gardening #indoorplants

Step 1 of the chillies done! I soak them overnight (up to 24h) in a weakish chamomile tea. This is recommended in a few places and I've done it for 2 years now and it does seem to improve germination, but I've not done the "science" to really compare it to not doing it, or plain water, or some use black tea, others use peroxide. But the ritual is fun and I get to have a cup of tea out of the deal.

I vaguely sanitise things with ~75% isopropyl, but don't fuss about it too much.

This is the first 14 varieties, there will be about another 10 in a second batch. I tend to plant 2 seeds to each small 5.5cm pot and thin to 1 plant (sometimes I'll prick one out to another pot rather than murder it.)

1) 7Pot Primo
2) Naga Morich
3) Wraith
4) Trinidad Perfume
5) Scotch Bonnet (red)
6) Big Black Mama
7) Big Sun Habenero
8) Aji Mango
9) Orange Drop
10) Bishops Crown
11) Madre Vieja
12) Tangerine Tiger
13) Sugar Rush Stripey
14) CC Jalapeño

Yay. 🌶️ :robot_display_heart:

This year's chilli seeds have arrived in the mail. Better get my finger out and sort out the larger hydroponics setup soon.
#Chillis

Last of the cherry chillis coming in. Not as hot as I'd like, but a great addition to a salad.

A note on provenance: these are my second generation of this chilli, grown in Spain from seeds given to me by my mum. She, in turn, grew hers in France from seeds someone gave her from Italy.

#GrowYourOwn #Chillis

These 'cherry' chillis are coming in bigger and stronger than last year, but they're stubbornly remaining green.

I wonder if there's anything I can do to speed up the ripening so that I can take them on holiday with me...

Sie werden so schnell erwachsen.
They are growing up so fast.

Morning zusammen 🍀☕
Bin müde...🥱🥱

Heute ist u.a. #Tag des #Chillis
Da bin ich mal gespannt, was mich heute so scharfes erwartet....

Passt auf auch auf und seid #achtsam.

#Bloomscrolling #chillis #flowers #home #love #nature #photography

Nach einer Woche ist schon ganz schön was los. Auch wenn ich etwas zu spät bin, sollte es doch dieses Jahr wieder für eine kleine Ernte ausreichen ;-)
After one week there is already quite a lot going on. Even if I'm a little late, it should be enough for a small harvest this year ;-)
#Chili #chillis #FermentedHotsauce #hotsauce2024

Another thing going on tonight is last week our latest kitchen toy arrived. A dehydrator! It's a big bastard! But that's probably a good thing as I tend to work in bulk.

We are testing it out with chillies. Most of the Aji Mango crop has been tailed and halved and gone in, going to try making a Aji Mango powder. And also a range of whole tailed chillies which Kat is planning to send to a friend in Germany.

Set for 10 hours at 50C. Now we wait.

These things give me the fear more than the monkshood does.

Chilli sauce day. 😋

This will keep me supplied for a while. Has a pretty mighty kick to it but nice taste too. 🔥 Scotch bonnet chillis with lime, pear and a few other odds and ends.

H/t to this recipe I’ve been using for a decade now.

#HotTake !!!!

You know scotch bonnet chillis?

Does anyone else agree they're not as hot as we're made out to believe?

#ColdTake #Chillis

Current state...

In the first mini greenhouse there's only two Cayenne missing now, all of the others have come through.

In the second one the Reapers are still taking their time, two of the Habaneros as well, but the Lemon Drops have also now all said hi 😊
