It looks pretty cool

Hi guys complete novice here at growing chillies, didn't think they'd all sprout but have lots of lil baby chilli plants now haha, would it be best to separate them now or wait till they'r a bit stronger?

Can anyone explain why this is happening to the leaves? Almost like they are shriveling. Thanks.

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

My lunchbox orange pepper has developed some spots on ONLY the new growth. Could this be an early sign of something ?? Thanks in advance, love this community !

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!

A couple of the Tangerine Tigers passed the 'Tiger' phase, but they are beautiful, and they should be even sweeter. Good for seeds, too.

Fresnos have been coming in pretty much every day, Habanero, Datil, and Chocolate Scorpion are starting to turn, and Blood Ghost and 7-Pot Primo are waiting in the wings!

First time growing ghost peppers (Lilliput from Experimental Farm Network)

Grew these from seed…monster pods and lots of em!

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.

I just ordered and received Carolina Reaper seeds few days back from Pepper Joe's, for 10 seed package they advertised it $7+ dollar plus $7 for postage , they sent 13 seeds out which atleast 5 seeds were did not have any development on the seeds, I have followed their instructions and planted

The peppers are about 5-8 centimeters long 🥲

I grew this from seed. It’s supposed to be a red bonnet. Leaves are looking annuum-y. Break it to me?

L'anno scorso ho preso dei semi da un baratto di scaglie con semi di Carolina reaper comprato online , li ho piantati e questo è quello che sta nascendo. Sono sicuro che non sono Carolina reaper perché dalla forma si vede una notevole differenza ma sicuramente hanno virato su altre specie o si sono incrociati, magari non erano neanche semi stabili oppure si sono impollinati con altri peperoncini vicini. (Sono tre piante diverse e i frutti stanno ancora crescendo)Grazie in anticipo :)

Home grown peppers and some random mixes based on what's ready to pick

Hi all, my aji lemon ball has been almost fully chewed through, is the a way to save it? Like maybe cutting each end and then grafting? Also, if I graft, do I need to take off the small green peppers?
