I will be growing most of mine in soil in "5 gallon buckets" with 1 gallon reservoirs, and I have been pruning the peppers a little to influence how they grow. I do have one that is growing in a non-circulating ??? (kratky style), but I'm not sure I will leave it there. |
I shop at a place that sells stuff from Peru.
All of there Aji Amarillo peppers they sell in a jar or can are huge and thick walled compared to what I have seen in some places and grew from the small one.
And all are orange not yellow which is confounding to say the least.
But they call it yellow who am I to argue.
The peppers I pulled from this can were around 3 to maybe 4 inches long and I made Chile Rellenos with them.
