This year I’m growing chiltepin, habanero, pablano, gochugary, and Thai.
The chiltepins are tiny but I really love them. I’m hoping to get enough this year to pickle a small batch.

I’m growing my hot sauce collection in the fridge. Requires no water or attention.
But seriously I might do habaneros
Hot sauce is like watering your food with your peppers.
Just chiltepin here. I grow them for the mockingbirds, but I enjoy crunching on them while I’m out in the garden.
That’s great that the birds like them. Maybe they’ve unknowingly planted a few!
Oh they absolutely have. Birds can’t taste capsaicin, so it’s the plant’s “strategy” to get its seeds dispersed far and wide.
This year I mostly just grow from seedsof last year. I started this year’s ago. Original seed were from a spirale chilli bought in Turkey, obviously a hybrid. 4 years later they are basically just Cayenne, but tastes great. It is probably a mix of the original spirals and some other peppers i had during that time.
So, this year only 1 Tabasco and 3 Cayenne of my own brand. I have too many tomatoes and cucumbers for more than 4 peppers this year.
Got some aji parapita seeds, we’ll see how it goes since the last seeds (carolina reaper) I bought none sprouted.
I’d love to grow gochugaru at home. 👀
There are seeds for sale online! I actually found some plants for sale at a community garden event.
Oh I don’t doubt it! It’s just hard to grow here in Sweden. I’d need a bunch of extra equipment.
Ah, gotcha! Yeah, that seems like could be difficult.
