Loving one of my Hungarian black plants this year. Never seen anything so beautiful

Everything else is doing quite nicely as well. It’s nearly time for my first proper harvest.

Firstly stop panicking cayennes do have a slight bend. You could slide some bits of slate under them so they’re not sat on the soil.

Looks super SC, do you deliberately spread out your plants, my two Unknown’s are loaded with fruit but the seem to be intertwined within itself.

I put the pots as far away from each other as I can at the beginning of the season. But when it gets to this time of year I’ve not much clue where one stops and another begins.  If you mean do I train each plant to go outward, no I let them do what ever they like. Only thing I do is keep adding to the support. So I don’t get any broken limbs ( on the plant, not me ) or pots falling over because the plants so top heavy.

Yours look lovely but I think I might stick to just one plant for next year. I fear I may be overwhelmed with chillies from just the one. Smile

Did you get a list of possibly varieties with your mixed selection? Unfortunately there are lots of chillies that look very similar. Here you go this should confuse you a bit more  Wink

Nope I didn't notice a list and I have lost the packet now. I think I can recognise Jalapeno's,Cayenne and possibly Hot Wax, although the one I tasted wasn't very hot?

I also have six habanero.s grown from a different packet. As well as these I have three named chillie plants I was given, including Bhut Jolokia and Dorset naga methinks.
