Last year, soon after we moved, I bought 2 chilli plants at a Malvern farmers market. Off the back of those 2 plants – 1x Jalepeno and 1x Scotch Bonnet – I got about 50 fruits each, yummy!
Well this year I’m having a go at growing my own. I got 50x ‘Bolivian Rainbow’ and 20x ‘Long Cayenne’ seeds from the Mrs for christmas plus as an experiment I got 1 of each of last years fruits from the freezer and planted the seeds from them – approx 8x scotch bonnet and 15 Jalepeno.
So without further ado may I present to you some tubs of mud.
Any reason you went for a 3×5 grid? I’m not sure why you need the load balancing. Anyway, good luck with the project and let’s hope it was worth the investment.
3×5 grid was what we had lying around, there are about 6 seeds in each ‘pot’.
Load Balancing? If you mean why did I plant so many then the simple answer is that I have zero confidence in my potting abilities and am going for safety in numbers.
Cheers
