Hi all,


(delurk mode)
1- Some weeks ago my mom has given me a nice chile plant as a present.
It has soon began to set lots of chiles, first light green then purple and
now turning yellow (should have red chiles at the end), fruit is 1/2" long
and upright, and plant satlk has purple veins. any idea what these chiles
are?
2- The funny thing is that if the dried flower remains on the chile it
keeps that part of the chile light green. So it would seem that turning
from one color to another is light dependant. Anyone else noticed this?
Anyone has a chemical-phisical explanation?
3- I've just read in a gardening mag that parsley and string bean plants
planted near chiles keep some bugs away from our beloved sons of El Grande.
Anyone tried this?
