Nice, but that's just the start!

Those first harvests are always small. The season begins NOW.

It's a very nice harvest! If you want to compare it to mine, I have none yet! I like the early small harvest because of what's coming after that, many more harvests :)

I haven't really had a "harvest" yet either, but I have picked several here and there for various immediate uses. Just ate a HHW sliced up on my sandwich yesterday. I could do a pretty decent harvest right now on my HHW and bananas, but I am hoping to get a few orange and red pods to add to the color when I do make my first real harvest. I am only going to wait another week or so though. If nothing happens, I will make that first harvest in order to allow my plants to get busy on the second round.

Where are you gowning? I am in California and the first few are just beginning to turn.

Wisconsin. But like most up north here, we start our peppers early indoors. This year I started my seeds February 14th and they did great. I may start just a little later next year.

I'm on the Alabama gulf coast, and most of mine are just now setting pods and some are just starting flowers. It's been super hot here though, lo like 95+ for a few weeks. They kinda take a "vacation" on me at this time of year, lol

My dad's family is from Huntsville!

Son just moved to Orlando, and I'm trying to get him to grow some datil.

It has been 103+ for much of the last few weeks, but a blessed 80 something today. And a dry heat! I grow a lot of "chinenses"; Numerous so-called Scoth Bonnets for my husbands famiky, as well as my moms. Freezes are rarely a problem when overwintering , but for me, low soil temps a concern. I start seed planning to put seedlings and overwinters outside May 1. It's a long season, so it works.

Hi Annie, you got quite some hot show stoppers thete. I love hot peppers and would love to get my hands on some of your seeds to grow next summer. I can send sase. My email is:aliciacammel@gmail.com
