My 2009 season

[Fatalii]

Beautiful!

I especially liked the bean picture, they look like plastic or something!

BTW, back to the white rocotos, here's some rocotos to compare the color with:




The lightest one is definitely Canario.

 Your 7-pod(Blast) which is light green when unripe is very interesting, what color are they when ripe?
The Cajamarca is a nice looking plant also.

[patahontas]

Hi! Thanks, the 7-pod(Blast) should be red when ripe.

Thanks Fatalii for those great pictures, The Canario have a similar color as the White Rocoto.

My 7 pod looks just like yours. Pale green, but with some purple spots caused by sunlight. The first pod of that plant actually was dark green from the start! Waiting for those to ripen...

Some pictures from the last weeks



San Isidro


Very small pubescens, Pi 355811 (aji rocoto)

This one is called Aji Amarillo,  its much smaller than the Aji Amarillos I have seen before.


Jamy, a very nice baccatum


Purple Marconi and Corno di Toro


Cajamarca, one of the favorites of this year


Purple hazel


7 pod Yellow

[Fatalii]

You got some great vars there!

Let me know if you can find anything on my seed site http://fatalii.net/seeds and perhaps we can arrange a little swap?

Antoher picture of the quite prolific Bhut Jolokia


Vinagrito-more pods than leavs;)


Fatalii - do they look ok? I have never grown Fatalii before.


7-pod from an Italian pepper mate

[Herra 47]

your fataliis look more than ok
They look great and very delicious
One of my favourite by taste and burn is just good for me to eat it raw

[Fatalii]

Those fatalii (and bhut) pods look more smooth than mine.
I have more small wrinkles around them.

Pics to come later... I try to update the site today.

[patahontas]

I agree with you my Fatalii does not look like the should.

I guess the photo makes the Bhuts smoother - I have problems with the red colors in my photos. (The first pods of Bhut were small and smooth).

[Fatalii]

Well, those bhuts will be hot enough I guess!!

[patahontas]

Some harvest pics, could not choose which one I preferred.










Hot peppers in the dark Super Datil, Bhut Jolokia, 7 pod, Fatalii ( I call this one the fat Fatalii  )

[Fatalii]

Nice variety of colors on the pic before the last pic!

Overall, great job!!

[patahontas]

Well a couple of days ago winter came to town. So I harvested most of my chile peppes that were still out. The plants in greenhouse are still well with some extra help from a fan and isolation. I also attended Orto Novos chile pepper harvest. Very nice to pick peppers for almost nothing. Most pics or from this event. Last but not least its very nice to read a new book when the season is almost over. There are some nice info about Bonsai chiles in this book, Well done JUKKA!!! Really great to see that you are mentioned loads of times in this book.

Regards

Patrik

Great pics! Looks very homely!

I'm sure you're enjoying these times as much I do.

Great to hear you liked the book, I still didn't have time to read it all!

Keep up the great work!

[patahontas]

A week ago we grilled some peppers, it was really nice. We also smoked 1 kg jalapenos (with some other annuums for our special recipe;)). Really nice but it took a whole weekend. The taste was great:)

White Rocoto





A nice rocoto with typical rocoto taste. Many had brown(almost purple at times) parts because of the sun.

[Fatalii]

Looks very beautiful!

The purple color is great on that.

Usually rocotos get just dark color on the sun, not as clear purple as that.

[patahontas]

Thanks Fatalii for the nice comments! I loved the looks of these rocoto.

[patahontas]

To all of you
