Final pepper harvest of 2017, and the Giant Reaper

[catman529]

Me and a friend harvested what was left of my pepper plants and pruned back the 2 year old Carolina Reaper and potted it up again. Also potted up his Chocolate Bhutlah plant that was planted too late in the spring and didn't ripen any fruit.

I'm going to save a bunch of seeds from the giant Reaper and also make a pepper extract using everclear.

Lol I think the peppers on them will give it away. Too many full sized green ones to just trash the plants. I'll pick them as they ripen and then throw it all in the burn pile

Honestly have too many peppers to do anything with. Next year will have more jalapenos and bell peppers. My friend took 2 grocery bags full of yellow and red ghost peppers home.

yeah i grow more bells that hot. i can julienne cut them thick and freeze them in a gallon bag and when i need some for cooking i just reach a handful and use them. mine did pitiful this year. i wish i knew the type i planted last year, they grew big bells and the stalks were as big as my wrists.

Not a minute too soon. We had a thick frost by 9:30 last night and all the warm season stuff left in my garden was black and droopy this morning.
