Chilli Plants - is it too hot?
Obelixx:
Must admit I like my chillies medium heat and fruity so I can still taste what I'm eating and not have my mouth anaesthetised.
I tried Lemon Drop last year and they were perfect so imagine my chagrin when OH "weeded" the two I was growing this year because they didn't look like tomatoes growing in the same bed. I pointed out the clues - twirly metal stake and a label. Doh!
He has bought me two Apache chillies which are nowhere near as interesting and, unfortunately, my other chilli seedlings failed. Good job I have supplies frozen in ice cub trays.
Paulh:
I've grown Jalapeno and Hungarian Black for a couple of years which (mostly) did not have any noticeable heat but did add some flavour to dishes. This year I've added Hot Lemon, Prairie Fire and Heatwave Improved. These are now ripening nicely and Prairie Fire certainly has something more!
