Really interesting thread! My husband is liking hotter and hotter salsa so I am looking to learn more about the pepper varieties.

Capsicum frutescens 'Tabasco' in straight diatomite

Very nice peppers. In the straight diatomite how are you fertilizing?

Levent · August 24, 2013

I apply soluble ferts one every 3-5 waterings.

Thanks alot Bill!You are always welcome in my pages.
This shot was taken today.Capsicum rhomboideum has many ripe pods now

Doug9345 · September 11, 2013

I had to look up Capsicum rhomboideum because I'd never heard of it. It's a nice looking plant. Have you grown it before and how do you use the fruit?

Levent · September 11, 2013

This is a 2 years old overwintered plant.Pods are ridiculously small, just a few milimetres wide!I'm eating them out of hand as a curiosity.
Here's another chilli yet big enough to consume in salads

Capsicum annuum 'Chocolate Cherry'
