Inspired by Mats I planted the second time early this year (check out Mats great blog). The varieties were in turn Bhuta Jolokia, Inca Red Drop, Locato PI387838, Pimenta Barra Do Ribeiro, Tabasco Greenleaf, Pimenta Da Neyde and 7 Pod. The plants were rooted through the fine, so it was a good time to give them bigger pots. I added a little chicken manure, which gives an extra kick with nitrogen.  As you can see I filled in with considerably with soil because the soil tends to sick together when watering. The ancient pots hold approximately 0.6 l - the new 1.5 l (2.5 l for the Bhut Jolokia).
