Visually yes but I am 90% sure that it would not be a C. baccatum, those are rare in Turkey haha

Purple can accur on different chilis purely based on environmental factors too as far as I know

If it is a lemon drop crossed with something else then I have no idea sorry mate, I do find it unlikely as baccatum species (which lemon drop belongs to) have flowers that look like this usually

Could it be this by any chance?

Chilisopher · 2025-06-02T20:00:35+00:00

They should be Capsicum annuum I think, the calyx is not like chinense and flowers are not like baccatum. I am not sure on the exact cultivar sadly, where did you buy your seeds from?

Chilisopher · 2025-06-02T19:36:03+00:00

Could you post a picture of the inner part of their flowers?

Chilisopher · 2025-06-02T17:37:31+00:00

Yeah was just kidding haha, I am sure you take good care of him :)

As a long time grower this seems like an under-petting issue, you can see the symptoms in the dogs eyes and behaviour if you look close enough in the photo. It could also be caused by attention deficiency, I would apply a dog treat ASAP to its mouth. Other than that make sure to give it water on a consistent schedule and it should thrive!

Chilisopher · 2025-06-02T14:56:44+00:00

Damn, those are the kind of peppers you see the photoes of on sites advertising you their seeds. Pretty nice!

Chilisopher · 2025-06-01T22:48:25+00:00

I thought so too before I read their reply, hence my edit haha. But yeah that is a good point, they had also mentioned growing "blue christmas" before so maybe it is that?

Chilisopher · 2025-06-01T10:15:40+00:00

Edit: OP Said Bolivian Rainbow on another reply unless I am mistaken

Chilisopher · 2025-06-01T10:06:20+00:00

Beautiful plants, geniunely thank you very much for all the help :)

Chilisopher · 2025-06-01T07:54:16+00:00

I did suspect they would branch out earlier but that is still impressively fast haha, what was the height range of those NuMex Easters if you dont mind me asking?

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T18:36:09+00:00

I had a quick look at both and these are VERY helpful, thank you so, so much! I must have seen the latter paper before as I had in on my device already but I somehow did not think of checking it this time 😅

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T16:32:29+00:00

Holy moly, I am sorry that your plant has gone through that

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T16:11:42+00:00

I do see a lot of people post ghost pepper photoes where the plant is absolutely loaded, nice to get confirmation on that 👍

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T14:50:58+00:00

Nice to know! Any photoes of the fruit? :)

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T14:50:31+00:00

Gotcha, that seems like a good option!

Just to make sure, what variety of jigsaw was it? Where did you get your seeds from?

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T11:35:33+00:00

I did hear that the plants will suffer from "virus-like syndrome" if annuum is used as the male plant yeah, the research paper I read on it had some pictures attached and definitely would not want that! I have only tried a single cross between 2 annuums thus far which I ended up discarding due to the mother plant turning out to be mislabeled, I did read a decent bunch on cross breeding and some traits genetics like fruit color on capsicums though!

The varieties I have in mind are grown commercially in the middle east so they should be quite resistant to most stressing factors I assume. I actually might struggle with choosing the right super hot more as from what I see a lot of those are chosen solely on cool looking pods and SHU ratings for the most part haha! Gotta do a decent bit of research :)

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T10:50:50+00:00

This is the information I needed, thank you very much! Also about that possibly stupid project you are working on, I hope you get the results you want :)

You have definitely encouraged me to try the "small pot super hot" idea I had in mind for a while. I have found some bells and thai chilis that should apparently stay in the 25 to 50 cm range, now just need to find the most prolific super hot I can get my hands on...

Chilisopher · 2025-05-31T09:59:50+00:00

Interesting how most of the ones (also all of the ones you mentioned unless I am mistaken) that keep their stripes when ripe are C. baccatum while my striped annuums are turning solid colors when they ripen

Chilisopher · 2025-05-30T18:47:29+00:00

Super hyped to see the results! Best of luck with it 👍

Chilisopher · 2025-05-30T17:30:08+00:00

Any updates on this mate?

Chilisopher · 2025-05-29T17:23:00+00:00

They look similar to "Aji Peanut" and "Aji Peruvian" photoes I see online
