Can you tell which ones are Park and which are Burpee?
The Park is plumper? |

Hi have so many sweets picked. This morning I sauteed some with onions and added some eggs and cheese. Yum. Tonight I am going to use some in my stuffed chicken breast.

I have neglected these. I forgot to add Mooch on Sunday so I will just do it this Sunday. I also have not pollinated. After looking this morning boy did I need to add water. I also pollinated and have so many peppers on both. Now I just need them to change colors.

I will be ending this project this weekend. I am going to saute all the peppers on the two plants with dinner. Then I will completely sanitize to begin two new plants.
One will be another Sweet Heat I think and the other  I have options so I need to decide. |

Did you find it an issue planting two sweet heats in one bounty? It seemed like there was enough space -- just curious. Thanks!

gkboyd6, there is plenty of room for two Sweet Heat plants in any large machine (Extra, Ultra or Bounty). One ca even be grown in the Harvest as they only grow no more then 10" for me that I have ever found and I have been growing these consistently for a while now. I hope that helps. |

Cool, thanks. Follow-up, I saw you mentioned that you had more than 1 seed germinate per pod. When removing the secondary sprout, is cutting it at the base simply enough? Or must you pull it out completely from the root?

Just cut it at the base.  |

So what is the final conclusion about the two plants? Are the seeds basically the same?

I found that the Burpee grew a tad taller and wider. The Park Seed produced more peppers and fatter ones. The Burpee were more long then fat.
If I were to choose I would pick Parks over Burpee.

I pulled off ALL the peppers, some red, some turning red and some green. I think I pulled about 40+ peppers off.
I will be sauteing all with onions and garlic. Then I mix it with, yes it sounds weird and maybe yucky but it is SOOO good... Egg Noodles, Butter and Cottage Cheese.
This garden is officially terminated!
Great garden, great haul and ready to start another.
