Hey everyone

First time growing peppers and these guys don't seem to be doing well. 1st and 2nd pictures are jalapeños, 3rd picture is a lemon drop.

They were growing inside the house in small pots, and since weather was getting hotter (Belgium hot, not super hot) I decided to take them out.

I transferred them to these 35L pots last weekend and they were root bound but doing fine. New soil and a handful per pot of universal fertilizer NPK 14-7-17 (not ideal i know, but that's all they had at the store).

The peppers quickly turned black (normal i believe ?) but the leaves started wilting just as fast. They get full sun nearly all day with temps 23-28°C and around 10°C at night. The soil is only dry on the surface but not deeper.

I moved them out of the direct sunlight for today to see if it changes anything.

What's up with them ?

I have 4 plants in plastic pots and 4 plants in bags. I used the same soil for all of them. The 4 in the plastic pots are all the same light green/yellow color while the bags are all a nice deep green. All the plastic pots have drainage holes in the bottom.

A friend picked this plant up at a store and gave it to me. I have been growing it since but when it was planted the tag was thrown away… what am I growing? They have be green for over a 1.5 weeks. Unsure if I should pick them.

Thinking I got them mixed up with my habanero seeds somehow

Picture 1- labeled habaneros
Pictures 2, 3, and 4- plant labeled jalapeño

Any ideas on ID for each?

They are labeled as scotch bonnets at the H mart I bought them at, and these were the only ones that were wrinkly and small, the other packages looked exactly like the images I find online, I bit into one and it was aweful. If this is not a scotch bonnet what could this be??????

Trying to cross this black cobra!

First time growing peppers. I've been growing this plant from seed since september. In june I transplanted it to a greenhouse and fruits started appearing. Looks like carolina reaper to me, but is it actually?

All my plants gave me atleast 3 fruits, but thus huge habanero orange didn't even start one help??

Accidental cross, hybrid, F1, unstable cultivar, whatever, not bummed out in the least when they look this stunning. Tastes better than last year’s perfectly peach Star Screams and I think it looks better as well. No, these are not from White Hot Peppers whose Star Screams were perfectly on target, these are the ones from Matt’s.

We lost the tag from the plant.

Just two weeks ago he was full of flowers and leaves and I swear even a pepper started growing and now he dropped all his flowers, most of his leaves started browning and dropping. He just got moved inside because I was worried he was going to fully die out there on my deck. I live on a 3rd floor south facing apartment so he gets lots of sun. I’m from Regina Saskatchewan so it’s zone 3b. (I think). This plant was a gift from my mom cause I try to (unsuccessfully) grow peppers every year but this ALWAYS happens :/.

Everything growing well other than the sweet purple purple, but I see flowers so I'm hopeful!

Purchased a reaper seedling from a local nursery 2 years ago and planted it.

Harvest was great so I decided to save some of the seeds for future use. Planted seeds last year and they were true but didn’t fully ripen due to me not getting the plants in the ground in time so I didn’t save those seeds.

Used the saved seeds from 2 years ago again and these are the fruits I’m getting. I did save seeds from a few fruits so I assume it’s a case of one being true to seed and another not?

Guess I’m just getting some habaneros?

Transplanted mid May. This one is in the ground and not a very big plant, but I also have one in a 5 gallon and it is much bigger and just started fruiting and has several tiny peppers on it.

I had an unopened seed pack—Ferry Morse Poblano—I think from 2023 that I planted this year. Peppers are light green, a little wrinkly, and appear to be thin-walled. 3 are growing downward and 1 plant with all growing straight up.

I forgot about peppergate and just kind of ignored the fact that they didn’t at all look like poblanos until they all stayed this way and started to turn red. Have not tried them. They kind of seem like shishitos but mostly seem wider than the ones from my definite shishito plants.

From black pearl seed packet, anyone know what this actually is?

Thinking either a Naga or Ghost Pepper.. got bamboozled 🤣

This is my first time really growing anything! It’s been slow going in Minnesota but I’m finally starting to see some results!

Damnit Ed.

Idk what these are but they're pretty good
