New annuum pods

The smaller annuum has produced its first successful pods. They seem to grow quite rapidly but I have no idea what the final size is gonna be. The Habaneros are now getting into gear as well! Looks like they're gonna get ready for the summer in time.

Solarium clean up and re-arrangement for "Season 2011"

The solarium has been cleaned up and re-arranged with this season's new projects and carry-ons from last season. The current line-up is Lemon Drop, and two unidentified Mexican C. annuums from (Probably Cayenne and Pequin) from last season, and three Orange Habaneros as newcomers. The one in the black pot really needs to get a bigger pen to live in as it shows some signs of claustrophobia. This I reckon has to be done before the weather permits outdoor life to get the most out of it.

The Grand and Brand New Chili Season of 2011

Hello!

Long time since the last update but there hasn't been much to show. The Lemon Drop has been producing pods steadily and that's it. I'll give the present herd another summer on the balcony but the "Solarium" is reserved for this season's project, the Orange Habanero (Capsicum chinense) with the supposed Pequin making an exception since it hasn't quite taken off yet and I want to see how it develops.

So, how's the season getting along then?

After first two germinating methods f''ed up in a pretty legendary way, the third batch is now showing signs of life. Two have spread their cots wide open, one is about to shake off the coat and one has just come out of the dirt. I'll post some pics after I've got to the pot switching phase.
