Has anyone grown this? Ours are beginning to ripen, and we have lots of them. I've looked up the variety and they seem to be a sweet pepper rather than a chilli, but when I cooked some of the first ones they were quite hot. They were red, though. Are they better eaten green? We like hot, but we have plenty of chillies already.

Well I've just answered my own question. I had forgotten that the peppers in the small greenhouse are Medina and not Frigitello. That will be why they are hot, then. :roll:

What a pea-brain I am. :oops:

Hi Pongeroon, it's called being human, we all do it sometimes :wink:

Thanks for your support in 'human-ness', NB! I seem to do it rather a lot...though I can't believe it EVER happens to OH, really!

Anyway, I am learning the subtle differences in the look of my assorted capsicums, because most of the labels have disappeared. We could be in for more suprises...

Well my labels don't disappear, but the writing on them does sometimes, and even the added apostrophe's i like to drop in now and again. :wink: :)

I cut some large white plastic labels this year. Wrote on them with black permanent marker pen and now there isn't a thing on any of them :)

Moral of the story I suppose is, don't buy cheap marker pens :lol:
Cheers PJ.

I'm just off down the greenhouse. I won't be long...........
