Hi Guy's
This season I'm trying "alot" of micro and mini kratky hydroponics objective being to produce a sample fruit to taste to save me growing a big plant over many month's in our short season only to discover I don't like the flavour.....as I did with the mighty 7 pot Douglah last season.
He's a couple very late sown (mid to late March i think but March) the both have impressed with there rapid growth and vigour !! They seem to way out perform more "stable" "traditional" varieties I sowed at the same time ......
This little Tiberius mauler red is exceptionally vigorous seeds from Justin at White Hot peppers
I also a Tiberius mauler peach not quite as vigorous as the red but still impressive. I can't seem to find a shu rating for the mauler but it's ment to be a super hot !
Interesting looking chillies............
My Andys king BOC is equally vigorous
again from Justin at White Hot peppers
Again very pretty gnarly pods apparently tested at 966,591shu ! very respectable
I'm wondering if the hybrid nature of these chillies explains the vigour compared to more traditional varieties started at the same time
or does that only apply to mammals ?? Do plants crosses experience "hybrid vigour "And will this vigour reduce over time as the "F" number increases and they become more stable ??
