Peppers update, October 21st 2020!
Sugar Rush Cream and Violet Sparkle.
As you can see from the size of the Violet Sparkle (they start out a very pretty purple and ripen to red) this fruit came from a flower that I PROBABLY should have trimmed off until the plant was more established...
oH well, I fully intend on maintaining these plants for years to come, and once this pepper is picked the plant will be able to put more energy into getting taller again.
I will most likely have to transplant the Violet Sparkle into its own pot, because the Sugar Rush Cream peppers are dwarfing them and shading them out unless I have it rotated toward the sun...
...Which probably explains why my Sugar Rush CREAMS, aka white are turning purple on one side; they're getting sunburned!
Thankfully none of them are burned enough to particularly damage them, but there HAS been three or four with insect damage, leaving little holes bored straight into the fruit... I'm curious about what on earth is eating these, the only HOT peppers that I'm growing.
