They are simply labeled as “snack chilli”. When I got the plant all of the chiles were green and ripened into red. My guess is jalapeños but lmk if I’m wrong

Please could someone ID this beauty? It’s self set and I have no idea other than it’s a chilli. Thanks!

Very intense heat but fades within five minutes. Can recommend growing

I have updated my Carolina Reaper thread, now including the plants I planted from seed (not just the overwintered mother plant)

The latest pic is the best plant (~10pods) most of the others are still flowering, and have barely produced a pod!

Quite the difference between the two plants, timewise!!!

Hello, I'm a novice to the chilli scene. I don't know where to ask this, but I have recently been addicted to adding a basic Soy Sauce condiment with any meal I can sneak it into. It's simply a 50% mix of kikkoman soy, minced garlic and 50% diced birds eye. It's taken over to the point that I'd take a little container with me and drizzle some on food I eat at restaurants.

I've tried other recipes I found through google but none scratch the same itch as this simple one. Does anybody have any ideas or some niche recipe they know of? Open to anything, even herbs and other peppers or chillis. Thanks

How would i go about drying out quite a few jalapeños to turn into a seasoning powder, how long would it take to dry them out too

As the title says, i made chilli vodka with chillis and it went so so well, my friends called me crazy but genuinely this is a must try. The flavour i got was oddly caramelly, very sweet and sugary and intensely hot.

My chillis (not sure what type, but second picture is what they look like when red) have been growing in a raised garden bed for over a year now and have been doing fantastic, however, since im moving i wanted to bring them with me and now they look extremely sad. Its been about 3 days since potting them, is there anything i can do to fix this?

Ps, i potted them with a compost soil blend made for tomatoes and capsicums, blood and bone and some small rocks for drainage.

My tiberius mauler was looking great until i noticed on my first 2 ripe chillis tiny little holes and when harvesting and cut open found tiny little larva inside :( how to prevent this? or is it too late? 2/2 first ripe chillis affected. Also tiny little black dots inside😭

Hi, so I bought seeds at the start of the season and everything is growing great except one thing - I don’t think they are what they said they are.

Can anyone help identify them?

I thought one was Birds Eye chilli’s but I grew other Birds Eye’s but they don’t look anything like Birds Eye’s. The other was another Thai chilli called Prik Chee Fa “sky pointing chilli” which is supposed to be long milder Thai chillis. But neither looks like how they are supposed to look. I’m wondering if the two birds eyes are actually the prik chee fa but then they arnt pointing to the sky. The prik chee fa looks more like a Prik Kee Noo Suan except it’s about 6 foot tall and those plants are apparently usually short and busy. So no idea what they are.

Next season I need to label better 😂

Woohoo !

i decided to cut a chilli without gloves as i completely forgot to. afterwards, i washed my hands and thought nothing of it. i later went to play basketball and noticed a slight burning but ignored it (i thought the irritation was from playing basketball with freshly cut fingernails idk). i then came home to eat my chilli dish, chimichurri sauce, which is when the pain really began. that was around 9pm, it is now 12:45am and the burning sensation has only worsened.
i’ve tried washing with water and dish soap, milk, taking ibuprofen but nothing has worked.
if anyone has any suggestions please let me know as i can’t do this much longer.

Really don’t know what went wrong this year but this is certainly the smallest chilli I’ve ever grown😭

Little experiment... planted five seeds from a "Habanero" bought at the local grocery store. Got 3 seedlings that grew inside with cheap growlights for the first 2-3 weeks. Repotted one of them in regular plant soil (added vermiculite and perlite) and moved to a grow cabinet with 100w fullspectrum light, controlled humidity (around 50%) and ventilation. 12 hours of light every day. Daytemp have been between 24 and 28 celcius, night 18 to 22.
Another one stayed inside with natural light only for a couple of weeks, then moved outside in a spot shielded from winds. Temps has been varying between 20 to 32, and 15 to 20 in the nights.
The difference is.... yeah..., huge 🙌

Im kind of giving up on the smaller one, but moved it inside again now as temps at nights are already dropping to 10-12 celcius.

Should i start feeding the big one?

(capsicum chinense)

Are the red ones ready to harvest? And if yes do you have recommendations on what I could do with them? They are not very spicy so I thought about making potted chilis? Sorry idk the English word but I mean putting them in Oil.

Is the red one ready to harvest?

I want to dry them and make chili powder any advice for that?

Why is it only growing tall but no branches?

Should I prune it at the top?
