The Grapevine Seed Circle Number 5 - Chilli Special 2011-12

[northepaul]

Hi Alun
I have not checked yet that everyone is still participating in the circle,, if they are, then you need to put each variety into a small bag per person (at the moment there are 19) and clearly label each one. Then post them to me and enclose a large letter large envelope (padded maybe) SAE. I'll PM you the address later in the week, which'll give me a chance to check up on everyone
Hope thats clear, and ok with everyone, if not, just shout and I'll sort it out

[northepaul]

There are still quite a few people who have not PMed me, so please do so ASAP - if I dont hear from you by MIDNIGHT SUNDAY (9th Oct) then I AM DELETING YOU FROM THE LIST!!!!

[Mrs Dobby]

Have had a bad growing year here, but will have seeds for Orzoco and Naga Jolokia, and possibly a couple of others, will have to check their progress! Most of the better chilli and pepper plants have now been transplanted into pots and brought indoors (the windowsills are full) to overwinter, in the hopes of getting an early / bumper crop next year!

[northepaul]

Mrs Dobby, one variety is the min, so any more than that is a bonus

Right to update you...
Bonfire and Bolivian Rainbow are currently ripening on the plants. The Bonfire will need a month? or so to ripen and be harvested, BR are ready now.
The Lemon Drop are crossed with Thai Dragons (whoops...) so we have Lemon Dragons if anyone's interested - I'll save the seeds in case.

[T8Ter]

Hi Vicky, Lemon Dragon sounds good I'll certainly plant a couple !!

I have some really well grown Cayenne's that I could produce seeds from (My first year growing chilli's from seed) and would love some other varieties to grow now

any chance I can get in on the swap. I like spicy!
