These pictures are from my picasa blogg, I had to create the picasablogg to show my picasa albums pictures here. For some reason I cant put the pictures directly from my album. I hope I will found a easy sollution soon.
Now many of my peppers have flowers (Cumari, Criolla Sella, Inca Red Drop, TopGirl, Tasmanian Red)
Tasmanian Red
The Jaloro F? now have four pods. The pods are darkgreen - it looks more like an regular Jalapeno than the Jaloro F1. Jaloro is a hybrid (F1) so my plant which I call Jaloro is actually Jaloro F2. I think I should call it "Jaloro Hybrid F2".
I grow some hybrids this year. If you look at my Tasmanian Red, you can see that it is not a pure Capsicum Chinense, It seems to be a cross with a annuum. I dont know if it stable, but I hope so. It looks amazing at a pepperfriends page Tasmansian RED
I also grow Trindiad Scorpion FG. It is a hybrid from Trindad Scorpion. Dont know what generation I am growing. F2 or F3? I hope it will turn out like this Trinidad Scorpion FG
Cant wait to see how they turn out.
Jaloro Hybrid f2

Many of the peppers now have flowers, Bulgarian Carrot and Jaloro Hybrid F2 have pods. I moved some of the plants to our summerhouse. I reppoted the peppers at the sommerhouse, including the plants I saved from last year (Peruvian White Habanero, Amazon Chile Roma, Locato PI387838, Turbo Pube, Cap 1492, Poblano(this one looks almost dead))
Two pictures from the balcony (not the summerhouse):
The beautiful Rocopica is a hybridised variety which resulted from a cross between a Rocoto, capsicum pubescens and Ulupica capsicum cardenasii.
Criolla Sella, capsicum baccatum.
In March I finaly got some seeds from Shiny Red Capsicum chinense that germinated. I now have two small Shiny red plants. I have been looking for this variety quite long, so I am very happy!
Shiny Red, Capsicum chinense from Peru.
A sad note: The Birgits Locoto plant looked very weak so I put it in the trash:(
Some picitures from a very nice and varm day i Stockholm (the hottest so far)
Tasmanian Red looks promising, the first Capsicum chinense with pods.
Tasmanian Red
White Fire should be a hot and tasty Capsicum annuum.
White Fire should also be prolific and early. When the finaly mature in red they might easily be misstaken for a small bellpepper.
Blondie, Capsicum baccatum, leaning against the apple tree at our balcony.
A non pepper photo. The balcony apple tree.
Trinidad Scorpion is a very interesting Capsicum chinense. It should be very hot
Habanero White Giant is another interesting Capsicum chinense.
Habanero Black Congo, Capsicum chinense
Cumari, Capsicum chinense
Maraba, Capsicum chinense
The flower of Jalapeno Olé, Capsicum annuum
The flower of Topgirl, Capsicum annuum. The pod is on its way
Aji Colorado, Capsicum baccatum, the flower and...
...the pod. The pod of Aji Colorado reminds me of Aji Cristal (another Capsicum baccatum)
Pods of Champion, Capsicum baccatum
This year I am growing some seeds from sundried Aji Panca. You can buy these in some shops as you can buy Aji Amarillo, Ancho, Pasilla, Facing Heaven, Chilhuacle Negro (i grow this one too), Guajillo, New Mexico, Cascabell. From what I have read Aji Panca is a Capsicum chinense. But now I know there is also a Capsicum baccatum version. The first flower from the plant.
Aji Panca, Capsicum baccatum
Hot coffee from Trinidad
Trinidad Scorpion FG (Yellow) Capsicum chinense
Scorpions on thier way.
The biggest pod so far, Numex Big Jim Capsicum annuum
The longest pod so far, Sweet nardelloCapsicum annuum (sorry I did write Siviri Biber before which was wrong)
A mild one, Petit Marseillais Capsicum annuum
This one should be very tasty, Grekisk paprika (Paprika from Greece) Capsicum annuum
A view from inside, mostly Capsicum chinense but also Aji Panca Capsicum baccatum (sorry it did not fit in the picture!) and the eggplant Ophelia.
Two nice baccatums, Aji Norteno and Inca Red Drop(background).
Rocopica

This year I got loads of beans from Francesco, this one was very special, I dont know its name and if I can eat it - but it looks great!
Some other beans, once again some of them from Francesco, Thanks!
Another non pepper, I love growing tomatoes and they are particular great with hot peppers!
...and something to balance the heat;)

A week ago we grilled some peppers, it was really nice. We also smoked 1 kg jalapenos (with some other annuums for our special recipe;)). Really nice but it took a whole weekend. The taste was great, but not as great as Jukkas Savukristalli (best hot pepper powder I have ever tasted!).

Some pictures of those already planted:
Pimenta Da Neyde
Pimenta Barra-Do Ribeiro, it took 18 days for them to germinate. 6 small plants looked up at the sun the same day;)
Inspired by Mats I planted the second time early this year. The varieties were in turn Bhuta Jolokia, Inca Red Drop, Locato PI387838, Pimenta Barra Do Ribeiro, Tabasco Greenleaf, Pimenta Da Neyde and 7 Pod. The plants were rooted through the fine, so it was a good time to give them bigger pots. I added a little chicken manure, which gives an extra kick with nitrogen. As you can see I filled in with considerably with soil because the soil tends to sick together when watering. The ancient pots hold approximately 0.6 l - the new 1.5 l (2.5 l for the Bhut Jolokia).
Ciao my dear pepperfriends!

Mini Bonnet.
Habanero Dulce.
January - germination of Habanero Cappucino
This mystical pepper looking up from the earth, I call it Mazaroni River as it found near the river in Guyana. It was found there by Orchid Hunters. Fruits are oval shape about 2 cm and germination occurred so quickly suggests that most of it is a Capsicum annuum. (Now confirmed annuum). My guess is a "wild or at least half wild:)" annuum.
The roots of Inca Red drop above ground?!?
Reppoted for the first time, picture taken some weeks after reppoting.
Dont know if I want to grow this one, just tried the germnation. I belive all the seeds came up. Quite good for a wild one. Capsicum lanceolatum.
Pimenta Da Neyde
Pimenta da Neyde again
Overvintred Chocolate Bhut Jolokia, 6/3 2011
Mazaroni River flower
Harvest time in april, a pepper that (the seeds) was bought as Yellow Bhut Jolokia (overwintred plant).
Have a great time my friends.
Ciao
Patrik
Had a problem of getting true seeds Bhut Jolokia and 7 pod. Even very known seed companys gave me hybrids. This year my Bhut Jolokia and 7 pod turned out true. Thanks Claudio!
Bhut Jolokia
Some more varieties have germinated
18/1
Trinidad Perfume
Tasmanian Red
19/1
Aji Colorado (the only baccatum that I started to grow 9/1 2008)
Long Chocolate Habanero
My Annuums and baccatums germinated very vell this year. But I cant say the same for the chinense. Only about 1/3 of the seeds germinated. So I started to germinate some more seeds of the most wanted.
From 28/1 -31/1 i started to grow more seeds of these:
Trinidad Scorpion (already staring to germinate)
Cherio Recife
Aji Panca (already staring to germinate)
Jalapeno Olé
Shiny red (bad seeds I belive)
Giant White Habanero
This weekend I also started germinate, just for fun, some Hot Lemon seeds from the freezer - does it work? will it work?
On the 3/2 I planted some seeds of the white bacctum Blondie. It will be intressting to follow this one as bacctums with matured white pods seems to be very rare. Is it a realy bacctum? Will it stay white even as matured and overmatured? ...time will tell.
Repotting in february. Fenir capsicum annuum (also called deFenir).
As you can see, it was about time to start repotting. This box contains the annuums and baccatums.
Siviri Biber capsicum annuum its a very sweet not so hot chile pepper. When I tasted this one last year I just fell in love with the taste.
30 chile peppers just repotted. All annuum or baccatum except Rocopica
The same windowsill. 2 weeks later.
The same windowsill, from above.
Windowsill nr 2. Chinense and baccatums.
Windowsill nr 3. Mostly chinense but also Rocoto Brown, Blondie, Jalapeno Olé, Birgits Locoto.
