My first outdoor pepper that hasn't been eaten!
(lemmy.amyjnobody.com)
Something has been eating the leaves, but the plant is doing really well! This came from a seed from a pepper from the store - it was labeled as either an "ancient" or a "twisty" pepper.
This is the biggest pepper on the biggest plant and is around 6 inches long! (all I had with me for scale was my hand, but later remembered that none of you know how big my hand is 😋) It's in one of the half-barrel sized planters with another of the same kind, and 2 tabasco pepper plants.
Ehh, I've still had critters get in. We don't have a permanent patch, so we didn't bury the chicken wire, so things went under - even when it was staked down pretty well.
We have also had (presumably) animals go over the top and bend the whole fence inwards just to get in. ¯\(ツ)/¯
