Chili Peppers

I have 30 - 40 plants on the go in the greenhouse, a lot of different varieties including habaneros (orange, peach, mustard, devils tongue) and jalapenos. I also grow sweet peppers and tomatoes.

I love the things

Do you sell yours commercially? I couldn't fathom growing that many peppers for personal use.

I will probably end up giving a lot to family and people at work. But I do make hot sauces and pawder, amongst other things. Some of my plants are ornamental as well, such as the Nosegay and Candlelight.

Also my yield / plant may not be as high as yours as I think that our summers are not generally as hot as yours.

Some recent piccies of my greenhouse

I figured I'd bump my old thread rather than starting a new one. The past 4 weeks have been good to this year's garden.

~4 weeks ago:

This morning:

In those pictures are four tomato plants, two cayenne plants, two jalapeño plants, and two habanero plants. Not pictured are two massive cherry tomato plants which are in a separate area. The tomatoes are taking their time, but the peppers (cayennes in particular) are already yielding like crazy. I sent out a few "pepper bombs" last summer, and the same offer will apply this summer (while supplies last). Anybody need some tasty but Christlessly spicy peppers? I'd be more than happy to share the wealth.
