After some private mail from "Yankee's" on pepper harvest,
I thought I would toot my own horn
I have an area 16 ft by 16 ft for peppers,
My plant out date is June 10th with average first frost Sept 10th
I have 120 pepper plants, 6 are green stuffer, 6 chiletipins, 6 peter
pepper
and 4 Venz Sweets from which I have not picked anything from.
For Zone I am border line USDA 4a and 5b.
Last week I picked the following RIPE pods.
29 Caribbean Red
13 Red Savina's
39 Lilacs
39 Scotch Bonnets
43 Purira
15 Bolivian Rainbow
14 Cayannes
27 Thai Hot Dragona
6 Country Girls
15 Aiji's
5 white habs.
4 Jals
Last night I picked the following RIPE pods
30 Caribbean Reds
60 "Orange" lilac habanero's
3 Red Savina's
54 Scotch Bonnets
42 Purira's
36 Lemon Habanero's AKA Red Aji's
7 Red / Chocolate Habanero's
2 Country Girls.
Ran into sundown before I could pick the rest.
Not too bad for growing chile's in a non-recommended area.
