First ripe bunch. They come right off the calyx without any effort/pulling needed at all. Give a good searing burn at the back/top of the throat. It doesn't really begin until you start to swallow them. Would be good as a small handful thrown into a pot |

Tasted a red Tepin - about 100k SHU, I'd say. Beautiful taste and a great great that builds for a few minutes then diminishes a bit slower than it came. Wonderful little chilli. |

First ripe Tepin; I've heard the fruits appear late in the season but there seem to be plenty of green/black ones so should be ok. (also the green ones are supposed to be at their peak SHU so will have to compare) |

Had a fair bit of whitefly. Sprayed and used a small brush to remove. Growing steadily. |

Put some melon nearby to keep the slugs away. Seems to work well. |

Planted it outside in a Belfast sink. It's quite a tall plant; I have some stubbier ones still under grow lights but want to see how this gets on outdoors. Hoping it'll grow into a largeish bush with lots of tiny chiltepins. |
