Same here @CanadianLori , albeit opposite reason of rubbish summer so everything except the minis took forever to ripen. I gave up and just used...
My aji omnicolor now have lots of fruits ( albeit all a pale yellow, not a single one has yet ripened, but they taste ok even at this maturity)--...
@Sirius ... i don't grow super hots but for what it's worth even my "medium" chillies -- apache , super , golden cayenne --- are prolifically...
Super ! I've harvested plenty of apache and super chillies ( none made it to red yet but i like using them at the green stage too ), some golden...
@Ademission ...no idea re your habanero size but just to say I am very impressed by your greenhouse!
@JWK , @CanadianLori .. I read somewhere that it's only mammals that feel the chilli heat... so seems plausible re chipmunk!... went outside today...

Thank you ( well at least i suspected it wasn't a chilli so I've learnt something after all!!) -- I didn't sow any of mine till mid Feb so I...
John (JWK) what is the plant with the big leaves on the extreme right in the black pot? (not a chilli?) and the other taller chilli/pepper plants...
