AG Jalapenos - Office Harvest (12/20/2017) ** Term 11/26/18

[Shawn]

Is your Office plant still producing?

[drbanks]

Yes, indeedy.  Big new blossoms, many of which have set.

[Shawn]

Excellent!

[spideybry]

I definitely want something like this for my office. There is no natural light where I sit so I would love to have a small plant like this It looks like an awesome little unit.

[drbanks]

It is.

I've already got peppers set on round 3.

I generally don't try to grow more than one pepper plant at a time in a harvest; previous attempts to grow two resulted in one overshadowing and killing the other.

Everyone here in the office is impressed by how well this plant has been thriving.

[Shawn]

This plant is doing so well.  Very impressive!

[drbanks]

When I went home last Thursday, all my peppers were green.  I had done some serious pruning on the plant earlier in the week and in the process, removed a couple of small, ripe red peppers, which I contributed to a coworker.  She told me they were hotter than hell.

When I came in Monday this week, this is what I saw:

[Shawn]

WOW, that is a tight round and beautiful plant

[MaryL]

Interesting!  So do you think the pruning could have helped hasten the ripening of the fruit?

[drbanks]

Seems like I let this one die while I was last in Cleveland.  Gave it a bunch of TLC, but it's well and truly given up the ghost.

[Shawn]

This one had a NICE long run!  Impressive how it produced.

[MaryL]

Bummer. But it did well for a long time.
