Last week was pretty bad. Primarily because my girlfriend had to return to the UK for an indefinite period- but on the gardening front two basil plants were lost to thrips and a chili plant blown over and killed by high winds. So it was good to wake up this morning to see the first flowering on one of my Cayenne plants. Most of the plants now how plenty of buds, but this is the first one to flower.
Also coming on are the “Tears of Fire” seedlings. These will hopefully produce small, but potent round chilies that have a vibrant red colour and provide both a cullinary and an ornamental use. Also coming on alongside these are some tabasco seedlings. I plan to use these two together to make a very special organic sauce that I will be selling here soon.
