    Deseed most of them until I get enough for regrow and swap, dry them and make powder, and use some fresh for cooking.

    Looking good what a great harvest and nice collection of peppers. Slow season for me and I am just hoping for one harvest.

    It was a nice pick but there is so much cutting and saving of seeds, then drying. Its fun but tiring.

    There is no real hots in there, except maybe the chicken heart and hybrid fish. I like the heat. I am still waiting on those. I do have some hybrid Pequin/White Hab that I crossed and are pumping out like crazy and those are F.... HOTTTTT. No taste but a long lip and throat burn.

    Looking great Ronny! My annuums are all pumping em out also. Just got to get up off my ass and harvest and cook em.

    Your harvest looks great.

    Pequin x White Hab sounds cool, F-1 or more? Do you plan to keep growing it out? Any pics of the cross pods? I had had no luck in growing the Tepin so going to try that again and maybe cross that.

    Bigger Pequin whites

    Oh yea. I have some small ones that grew out of that cross and some super giant ones. Both are extremely hot and great producers. There F1 so who knows next year. I have plenty of seeds. There is also a pequin/choc hab cross that have big pods. 2 different plants with 2 different pods. Not sure of the taste or heat (there changing and looks like red) but it better be hot as well. I will try to grow out the bigger ones of both kinds.

    I wanted them to be white but they came out red. I guess the red was too dominant. I can send you seeds later if you want.

    smaller pequin cross- similar to regular pequin but I believe way hotter.

    Very nice! What size pots are those?

  • 11 years ago

    3.5 gallon on the large pequins. 2 per pot.

    I have noticed that with smaller plants, you can get 2 per 3.5-5 gallon as long as you water and feed it regularly. So far, I have never had root balls in the pots, even though the roots fill it. There is always some dirt in there.

    The others were also in that size pot, but I just moved them to 1 per/1 gallon to reuse the pot for other plants. I may pull them later or keep them in the small pots for over winter. I havent decided yet.

    The bigger plants like Ghost... etc get 1 per 3-5 gallon. Im experimenting to see if it makes a difference against 2 per.

    The crosses show interesting different characteristics, I agree the bigger pods look better and unique to the cross. I crossed a Bhut with white hab also hoping for the white to come through but did not, I guess maybe after so many generations one or two white peppers may show up but I did not grow out to F2. I have seed maybe I will give them a go next season. You stated that there is no taste in the cross but a hot lip and throat burn, must be mostly pequin in flavor and hab heat? The chocolate cross sounds interesting how is the flavor on that one?

    I dont know yet on the chocolate as they have not turned yet. I think a few days more.

    Im thinking the Pequin/white picked the pequin taste and white hab heat. Hard to taste it when it really burns your lip and throat especially if the taste is not really high. Oh well. I Probably killed my taste buds already anyway. LOL

    2 different versions from the same seed pod. Pequin/Choc Hab

    habjolokia,

    The flavor on the pequin chocolate is a little fruityer, not so much pequin flavoring, maybe more of the hab. Maybe even a little hotter then the White. Your looking at maybe choc hab scoville and pequin after burn. Pretty friggin hot. Even had me top of the head sweating and I am use to the heat. Definitely a different heat than Hab. Even after a 1/2 hr still feeling it on the lips.
