Hmmmm... it seems life has thrown me a slight curve ball...
...or three.
The Naga Morich chilli seeds I bought online have produced a great plant and some interesting pods...
...but they aren't Nagas.
It seems Naga pods are supposed to grow pendant (hanging), whereas these pods are growing erect (standing up). Mind you, having looked at them yesterday afternoon, the look fairly 'Naga Evil'.
But they are growing upright.
I will see whether or not this is a condition of the plant in the first floor only or a condition of both the Nagas, since the one in the top floor has had some flowers open, and hopefully will germinate. If the pods grow downwards, all is gravy. If they grow upwards, I will see something is wrong.
The high temperatures this week were fantastic, because they meant more of the flowers released their pollen. The Esplendor is awash in little purple pods. The Piri Piri is also loaded with little pods.
I FINALLY GOT ORANGE HABANERO PODS! That is a relief. I was starting to think I was going to have the prettiest plant to not give and pods...
The Black Cuban is also producing some pods, which is good, and the Fataliis are also starting to produce flowers! yay!
Even the White Hab and the Paper Lantern are starting to produce little flower buds.
I need to take some more pics.
