Capsicum annuum

Had no idea what this plant was all summer 😂🌶🌶 #chilli

Double bonus, you found out what it was and you have chillies. I found a self seeded one the other day 🌶🌶🌶

@pelly just not sure I’m brave enough to try them 😂🥵 do they grow well outdoors?

I have mine in the greenhouse and I’ve had no problems with them 🌶 @kez001uk

@pelly I think I will give them a go again. They’re quite a pretty plant when they flower 😛

Yes the flowers are very sweet, you must try again 👍

Looking good. Mine have done better than any other veg this year. I must have a year's supply from them ready in the freezer! 🌶🌶🌶

@jeatacake a years worth?? 😮 very nice 😛 I’ve no idea when to pick them as some are tiny & red and some are big & green 😂

Yep I've never known so many & they're still going. According to Monty on GW a few weeks back, pick as soon as they turn red 🌶

@jeatacake thank you, and Monty 😛 think I’ll freeze them as they ripen so can just grate them into dishes, if I get brave enough to try them 🤣

Just a little at a time if you're not used to them, then slowly build up! 🔥

@jeatacake as hot as I get is a korma so I’ll be taking your advice! Especially since I don’t know the variety/heat level 🥵
