Okay, some of the chiles to be placed in the huge greenhouses have already germinated!! More pictures to come soon.
I will make an page for my site for this project to make it easier to follow.
I can't wait to see how this season progresses!

Looking sweet man 8)
Really amazing !
Do you know how many plants there is ... have you calculated ? ;D
Well... thats not all, just some to start with... ;)
Ok....and if you need help with harvesting maybe I can go........ :D
Harvesting will be ... erm... fun :D
Even last season there was plenty to do with only a few plants compared to this season:

Will be nice to shoot pics there this year. :)
Very nice jungle, I can only dream of something like that ! :o
I have the first serious chiliseason and only dreaming couple of pods.
It's a bit unrealistic feeling to be there... feels very dream-alike indeed. :)
But, just wait for this season pics... :)
Just like a big candy store.
Okay, a season 2009 picture from the large greenhouses...
After hardening off, they will start very rapid growth... looking forward to that.
(http://fatalii.net/chilimetsa_seedlings.jpg)
More pics to come soon!
Awesome!
Waiting forward to get the juicy fruits.
-T
- I don't see. I thing they are in the soil. -Not in the water.?
Nope... not soil but rockwool cubes.
Soon they will be moved into the final hydro system... that's where the real growth starts. :)
Damn, I'm drewling all over my keyboard watching those seedlings
When will we get new pics Fatalii ?
By the way this is very interesting topic.
I also have a greenhouse project, but it doesn`t compete with you. My new greenhouse in future is slightly more than 12 square meters, but big for me !
Very soon... and more in during the summer. :)
Ok... as promised, more pics here!
I was suprised to see how well they're doing already!
It will time to transfer them into the system real soon.

Aji cristal? or somethin else
Aji Cristal... and something else.. :)
OMG, I'll be visiting you this summer to have a look at it when there big.
Looks really good now :D
I would like to ask you Fatalii how they eat and what they eat ?
At that point they are being watered with a hose from the nutrient solution.
Next week they will be moved into the hydro system!

I mean they are on a plank. Do you have some effective way to put in the gravel or do you move them to a system. Where do the roots grow?
If I know big greenhouse systems right... these rockwool cubes are final place... these sacks under the cubes are place where roots grow :)
looks great fatalii... Again :)
As you can see on two first pics, some of the seedlings have already been moved to the system.

This greenhouse is realy HUGE.
What with them later? Have You got and contract with markets or something?
Yeah, these rooms are actually smaller ones there.... :)
Is it possible to visit the greenhouses and buy products straight from the producer instead of the retailers?
Hard to tell yet, we might have a bit larger packages for heavy users... more information on my site later.
OMG, that's just pepper porn :). Love that huge GH
More pics to drool at. :)

Here are the latest pics from the huge greenhouse amongst other chile pics on the last update!
Looks great :o
That place should be seen !!!
OMG :o. Damn. Seems your system works like a charm.

Here are some bees who pollinate cristals:
(http://fatalii.net/bees.jpg)
And rocotos... this is what I would call a rocoto jungle!
(http://fatalii.net/rocotos.jpg)
More at fatalii.net updates (fatalii.net/new).
More pics to come here soon!
Aren´t those bumblebees, not bees?
(Slightly offtopic :P )
Yes, as you can probably see on the pic.. :)
They seem to have done a great job pollinating those cristals!
They taste so good after a long time!!
Jep, Cristal is great,including those I´ve planted. Hoping to get yours in markets in Oulu.
You will, soon. :)
Oh man, again straight pepper porn... :)
Those bacca's that I have are fruiting like hell with minimum flowerdrop. Especially Omnicolor and Cito are good "fruiter's" :).
You're right! they both are just great on producing pods!
Okay, I shot couple of photos today at the large greenhouses.
Here is how Aji Cristals looked less than 4 weeks ago:
(http://fatalii.net/chile/kuvat/cristal_gh.jpg)
And here how they looked today:
(http://fatalii.net/cristalit280509.jpg)
They are already producing lots of pods!
(http://fatalii.net/freesi.jpg)
Here's a pic from the rocoto greenhouse:
(http://fatalii.net/rocotot_280509.jpg)
Holy moly :D And I thought my Dutch Habanero had grown a lot in a month ;D
:o :o :o 4 weeks?! SAY WHAT?!?! realy fascinating, I'm shocked
Could You tell me what hydro system is used there? Of course if it's no top secret :)
Well, there's more than that.. some even say that there are no differences using different nutrients. I completely disagree. :) We learned a lot from last year.
You can find more exact information on my site. Try using the search engine, you can find the integrated search engine for firefox on the front page of fatalii.net
Holy SHIT!
Awesome growth. Just can't wait to get my, my, my, my mine AC's....
-Timo
And here is Fatalii, bending the laws of physics.. How is that growth even possible?? Next time i read this post there is propably a picture of a flying pig.
This one still fits the 4 week growth from the seedlings above:
(http://fatalii.net/crist.jpg)
Im intrested what you feed those chilis. What's the nutricient you use with those?
Looks good!. Those Aji's are superb :)
Okay, more pics... the growth rate is just f*cking unbelievable!

All the vars were at the same stage 1st of may.
Even the rocotos are forming their first pods already!
More pics to follow at fatalii.net
Just unbelievable :o
Fertilization must be a big secret.
It looks great
Well J, what can i add to those pics. Great results! :). Aji looks stunning

I quess, that the huge greenhouses will explode, if the growth will be still as fast as it has been ::)

6weeks of growth behind, 6 months of growth still ahead!!
Jim & Nagas... this guy wanted to stay there...
(http://fatalii.net/jim&nagas1.jpg)
(http://fatalii.net/jim&nagas2.jpg)
One of the first naga pods, it's still very soft and mild, which means it will still grow, a LOT!
These pods will be huge!
The weather has been perfect until now.
Again, 6 weeks from the small seedlings...

Mr Cook in the forest of rocotos!
As a very skilled cook, this guy can really appreciate rocotos with cooking and therefore enjoys the scene!

Mr. Cook and Jim and looking for the first pods to harvest (and taste!).
(http://fatalii.net/harvesting_naga.jpg)

INCREDIBLE!
And what's the plan for NAgas? You wouldn't sell them in grocerys just like that, would You? :D
Perhaps I would try that too.. :)
Finally some more pics:

For finnish people, if you spot Aji Cristals at some market that isn't listed, please add it here:
http://fatalii.net/lista - link fixed!
People can easily track on the shops where fresh Fatalii's Aji Cristals are available!
If your local shop doesn't sell Fatalii's chiles, tell them to contact their wholesale seller, they have it!
That's extremely impressive. never done something in that scale. well done.
Are those rocotos going to normal markets like aji cristals?
If the cristals sell nicely, then yes!

Really nice to see them develop from the beginning on. Like the smoked version it's aroma is blessing man.
Have some red ones to eat but I'm afraid they won't taste that good as it did unripe :)
Aji Cristals, 8 weeks from the tiny seedling:
(http://fatalii.net/cristalit_8vk.jpg)
(http://fatalii.net/cristalit.jpg)
Available at best markets in Finland
Here's current availability:
http://fatalii.net/lista
Please update the list when you spot Fatalii-chiles in markets!
LOL, 8 weeks :o :o
More pics from the huge greenhouses on latest updates: http://fatalii.net/new
looks like i should pay Sello a visit and have a taste
i love cristals, but i love them wehen they are RED. can i buy red ones somewhere?
There are some available at markets now and also here: http://fatalii.net/cristal
The thing is that they lose the most precious and unique Aji Cristal aroma after fully ripen to red.
They become sweeter but more close to sweet peppers.
I bought a small package of those fantastic Aji Cristals from a super market last weekend. They were so good that I had to order 1kg more from chilikauppa.fi just a moment ago ;D And I can't wait to get them home. :P
Glad to hear!
It has been almost two weeks since I visited the huge greenhouses so it will be great to see the progress!
Pictures to come soon....
Okay, here are the first few pics:
(http://fatalii.net/cristalli.jpg)

Slightly bigger than my cristals.. :D.
The Naga Forest looks fearsome :D Shadowy and dark forest of pure pain :P
Some Aji Cristals, these bushes are actually "empty" at this point after collecting plenty of cristals for shops and other purposes!
(http://fatalii.net/fataliin_cristalit.jpg)
Here's the naga forest! Nagas available at finnish stores now!!
