Ok so i start my move back to Southern Cal from NC next week ( got a solid offer on the house) i still have a few acres of land and my mom still lives here so i will be back ( love the Carolina's) I thought my garden would be finished by now, growing up an Air force brat makes it hard for me to waist anything. So i was wondering will my plants survive the 3 day trip in the back of my truck or should i just give them away ? i still have a lot of seeds.

I would cut anything perennial 3-4 inches above the soil. Anything annual re-do next year.

Looking good! Always wanted to try Chocolate Habanero...

Thanks. They are all delicious. Once you build a tolerance to the fire you get to start tasting a lot of the inner flavors. My wife's boss is going smoke some for me. Can't wait to try those. Have a few people who I trade peppers for salsa with as well. I give them a bag of peppers, the next day they bring me a big jar of salsa. Everyone makes it a little different. Been buying A LOT of Doritos.

Everyone's peppers are looking great. The recent hurricane broke a few in my pepper pit at the top of the tomato cages. It laid down the ones in the pepper trench, as they were not in cages. Most of what I have left is the big Jalapeno and mini sweets. Also a few regular sized Jalapeno, Anaheim Chili and a couple more I can't remember the name {they are spanish}.

Anyone know what these may be? We’re supposed to be red scotch bonnets, but not sure...a couple more expert growers than I told me they’ve never seen scotch bonnets with purple flowers, and those pods are an odd shape as well. Anyone who might know what these could be I would greatly appreciate some knowledge!
the coloration could be from the minerals in the soil or food.. not sure just a guess .. by the way how you been.. we haven't chatted in awhile.

Yes I thought it could be some sort of deficiency or toxicity or something...otherwise it looks healthy, just not what I was expecting. Other plants from the same seed pack have flowers which haven’t opened yet so we shall see.

Those pods are getting quite a bit bigger and are OBVIOUSLY not scotch bonnets lol...I will post pics soon. Another plant grown from the same packet of seeds is starting to show completely white flowers, so I’m wondering if I got a stray pollination or a seed made it into the wrong bin or something
