It looks great! Hopefully, it will stay small enough. Mike says they do, and I'm definitely counting on that.

I have been growing these for a while and all have stayed small. However they were also Park seeds.

I’m back! I had some phone issues: I use Tapatalk to post here and had to wait for them update their app so I could post photos. We are at day 92 and I just gave the plant a well deserved trim. Too many leaves were getting burned and I even lost two peppers that were too close to the lights. I have about twenty peppers growing and a few of them are finally starting to ripen. Such a beautiful red!

Very Nice! Sorry you lost some but thankfully it was only a couple. I often trim old leave off. It seems to give the rest of the plant more energy.

Don't feel alone. Mine is around 60 days and is less than an inch below the lights, not leggy at ALL. I'm starting to stress over it.

cheddachasa, it sure is. Once the pepper is bright red it is ripe. Beautiful pepper!

My first harvested peppers! I’m not exactly a pepper lover but enjoyed growing these. They may not be that high on the scale but they are hot enough for me! These two are pretty small, about 2.5” and 1.5” respectively. Now to figure out what to do with them!

My fravorite use for them was diced along with onions, mushrooms and ham into a delicious omelette. They are also great in chicken salad.
Enjoy.

These look so good Like Mike, these are great in chicken salad. Sauteing them alone or with other veggies is also very good. I have used them in dishes I cook whether it be chili, sausage and peppers, with my Rosemary Potatoes ... I cut them up and add.

I’ll most likely use them in a stir-fry once some more of them fully ripen.
