ya been growing them a long time now.
has been sunny last few days. after harvest if you
set them in the sun they get more flavor.
they also store well. like several months in a cool dark
place. your in the us ? if so let me know early spring.
i could send you some tubers to grow.

Thanks man. Good offer, but i don't know what i'm thinking, talking of growing next summer. I ought to be gone on a hike again, if everything works out.
but if the offer still holds , the following spring?

"set them in the sun they get more flavor.

Yeah, just like my butternut squash, cool.

sure any time just remind me.
you grow them until 1st frost.
so you might be home in time ?
or if it does not frost where you live.
they make a little tiny flower then you can harvest.
tiny flower looks like a sunflower sort of.

Datil Chili peppers! They're about the same heat range as a typical habanero, but with multiple times the fruity flavor...I tried to buy Datil plants before, but what they sent me was not legit. So, I had to order raw peppers for the seeds to be sure ... :volcano:

Looks good Ripper, I messed up and missed my window to start seedlings. Are those going to go in the ground?

Ripper did you load that last picture into your gallery? How did you get to display without using attachments? I get nothing but error message.

No, I had recently transplanted these into these pots. I have four more that are still in smaller pots that I'm putting in the ground.

I don't know I'll have to check. I didn't purposely load it to my gallery, I haven't even viewed my own gallery in forever. :laugh: Only time I usually get the error message is when I try to use outside emojis.
