Ooh the Habas sound great, I'm a fan of flavor but not heat. How much longer before you'll be able to harvest?
Well I am just seeing the first pepper now .... Time to see how long it take to grow and ripen.

The plants from a distance. Then you will see some a Sweet starting to change color at the tip. The third picture is of a couple Habas growing.  |

The Habanada has SOOOO many peppers but all hidden under the foliage. The sweets also have a lot hidden but the three poking out the top are changing colors. |

My plant is in the SS6 and is spreading all over hte deck. There is a younger one in there, but I think I will have to remove that one. It is a big plant all of a sudden. You did say it would take off suddenly and you were right on the money, Shawn!

Wow, if you didn't go digging, you'd think nothing was happening! Looking good, and some turning red!

Help, I'm a little confused. I'm very interested in that sweet pepper for cooking. (I can't handle any kind of heat.) Which one is the sweet pepper and where did you get it?
Only heat I tolerate is my VERY mild chili recipe. It's a tad sweet with brown sugar in it, BTW.
Thanks,

The Sweet Heat pepper is a sweet pepper that has ta spicy heat. I can not say how spicy however. It is said to be about 500 scovilles I can not say. have never grown them. The full description is in the first post of this thread.

I picked my first Sweet Heat Pepper this morning. It is the largest Sweet Heat I think I have had. Measuring at 2-3/4" long. I have a feeling Mark will snack on it before I can use it LOL. Which is totally fine with me. He enjoys popping this gems. |

I had to make a slight adjustment to my gardens. I needed to move the Sweet Heat from this machine and placed it in with the Jalapeno. The spread of my Haba is overshadowing the Sweets. The sweets was easily taken out and no harm what so ever done to any roots.
Here is the Haba now. |

While pollinating yesterday, a pepper fell off the Habas. We knew it was still "green" and not ripe but tasted it anyway. It had a nice pepper taste with no heat at all!
Looking forward to these ripening.
Also added Mooch this morning.

Picked the first (of many to come) ripe Haba. It is a nice orange. In the picture the top does not look as orange due to the light source above.
Mark will be tasting it later and I will give you his review. |

I cut 8 off on Monday and Mark took to work for one of his guys. Yesterday I took off 7 and used them to fry in a meal. THis morning I removed 8 more. I have no clue what I will do with these yet. I have some errands to run and Mark will be home so I hope I find them when I return. There are still more ripe ones on the plant but think they can stay another day or two.
