Our 2010 Very Hot to Insane Hot Chile Pepper Plants

Charleston Hot, Habanero Chocolate, Dean Pepper (No clue what it is, the seeds came from Dean) Chiltepin Fort Prescott, 2 Siling Labuyos, Scotch Bonnet Yellow, 3 Ghost Chilies (Bhut Jolokia), Hawaiian Sweet Hot and 3 Habanero Red Savinas (smaller pots). [Front to Back]

We have to pot them up and keep them as far away as we can from our sweet peppers due to cross-pollination issues. A Friggitello or Marconi Purple might be ruined if the bees buzzed them after one of these devils.

A heavy layer of mulch

After a few wheelbarrow trips of mulch, I was able to cover the ground around all the tomato plants. Next time I might have Baldwin EMC dump a load a bit closer… I hope this will keep any trace of disease in the soil from touching their leaves. Hopefully we will not see any blight for a long time. As soon as I can, I need to hit them up with another dose of Alaska Fish Emulsion. Next up … Time to plant my chili pepper plants…
