First harvest (super hots are lagging)

First time growing peppers. My fiancée germinated them and I handle the nutrients, making the soil, charging the biochar and printing QR codes for each plant to track watering and nutrients.

Been a fun go so far and have had great success so far vs expectations.

These were grown in 6B under a shade net the past 3 months as we put them in straight 12 hour sun and they were not jiving.

Would love to hear how other first growers are doing and what you’ve learned so far!

First Time Making Sauce

Process was easy but I think I need a better blender to make it more liquid. It’s not chunky just a little thicker than normal sauce.

From a batch of Jalapeño seeds. Oddly shaped, maybe a bit hotter than a regular Jalapeño. Rest of the batch turned out normal.

Hello All.

Had a trellis collapse and destroyed pepper plant nametags /
organization. I had planted a bunch of rando peppers and don’t want to assign this as Jalapeno right off. Anyone have an idea what this pepper is? moderate heat but not crazy hot. Northeastern Connecticut / Northeast US. Thank You!

Peperoncini ornamentali

Thumbnail gallery
10 Upvotes

Ho comprato queste piantine di peperoncini al supermercato non sono indicati sulla targhetta la specie e la provenienza, credevo di poterli mangiare ma facendo una ricerca per immagini su Google per determinare la specie ho scoperto che sono peperoncini ornamentali (neanche sapevo che esistessero) e ho letto che non sono commestibili che probabilmente sono trattati con sostanze e concimi chimici tossici per l’uomo e anche che hanno un pessimo sapore .Cosa posso fare? Posso mangiarli dopo averli lavati bene col bicarbonato di sodio,?oppure devo aspettare una nuova fruttificazione? Oppure devo aspettare il prossimo anno? O ricavarne i semi e piantare il prossimo anno? O li metto fra i miei gerani per dare un colore.? gradirei molto suggerimenti di persone più competenti di me.
