This year in my new greenhouse I planted three Sungold tomatoes, two Jalapeno chiilis, one orange habanero, one trinidad scorpion and one scotch bonnet from several garden centres. And some Capsicum baccatum I grew from seed.
Sungold: nice but I’m not sure they’re Sungold.
Trinidad scorpion: no chillis.
Orange habanero: no chillis.
Jalapeno: large green chillis, no taste, no heat, one is now turning red AFTER the scotch bonnets.
Scotch bonnet: excellent, fantastic flavour, decent crop, most have ripened.
C. baccatum: good harvest, pleasant taste, mild.
I’m not buying garden centres plants again ! I’ve had issues with herbs too e.g. prostrate rosemary growing 3 feet tall.
