Hi John,
I'm with you on the mild chiles as well. The only ones I don't like
are jalapenos and bells when they have that really green taste. That
just means that I have to let them get closer to where they are
starting to turn before picking them.
As for the plants, I might have gone a little overboard this year,
with somewhere around 140 chile plants. Unfortunately, after a warm
dry winter, we were hit with a cool, wet spring and early summer and
last year the first frost hit in late September, so that excess of
pepper plants still may not provide enough ripe fruit. The only chiles
I have picked so far are sweet bananas, though I will be raiding the
newmex plants for some chile verde this weekend.
