image 08.12.2022 - These five beautiful and dark green plants produced a total of 17 small'ish pods for me, but they surprisingly came to a total of 1038 grams, so that's okay with me. The pods weren't that sweet in general, but more like a little green tasting even though most of them were dark red and shiny. They too do have found a peaceful place in the cellar to find a way of being even better in 2023

image 01.11.2022 - I picked 4 bell peppers off the plants, yet. That comes at a 355 gramms total, as they didn't grow as big as the ones in the supermarket, but the flesh is thicker.
There are still about 10 fruits on the plants, but I want to give away one of them, which is carrying 5 fruits itself.
The bell peppers are now all about to ripen or at least started to show some red color. The plants still look good, but I would like them to have developed some more leafes overall.

image 04.08.2022 - like a month later and the plants went totally mental about their growth. They are now about 90(90+)cm tall and very thick - can't see through the bunch of plants anymore. even finding the flowers is difficult with these big leafes... Happy to have two well-doing fruits on one of the plants and the other plants are starting to grow their own fruits, too.

image 06.07.2022 - Just moved them into the greenhouse that day. The bell peppers are super bushy with lots of huge green leafes.
One of them even got a blossom opened up that I tried to pollinate. ItÄs difficulit to keep track of the fruit as it's well hidden underneath a leaf - but it's not really growing a big fruit anyway.

image Just a size comparison while potting up from 1L to 4L pots. They can soak in 0.75L of water without leaking out of the bottom

image 12.05.2022 - time to pot up all 5 of them, with the biggest one being 34cm tall. I cut some bottom leafes to burry it deeper, with the biggest one ending up being 26cm tall afterwards

image 09.04.2022 - haven't seen them for 2 weeks while they grew to about 1.5x the size (20cm) of two weeks ago. The roots weren't as dense as in the videos, but the starting soil gets really dense after each watering, so I thought it was the perfect chance to pot up all 5 of them from 0.3L to 1L pots. Now they're about 16cm above the soil

image 21.03.2022 - got trolled by the plants. They're not as strong as they seemed 3 days ago. One collapsed and has a funny shape now. So I added some support to my taller plants. Hopefully they won't get moldy
