igenlodeA few more of my chillies blew down overnight (I have been using the windfalls in cooking), so as a lot of them already had dried-out stems ready for picking I decided to take my scissors and harvest the lot.
Not a bad crop when you consider that all this came from the purchase of a single fruit -- I don't know if it will last me a year. As you can see [bottom left], I've been using the windfalls half or a quarter at a time, since the individual chillies are about four times the size of the ones we've grown at home previously, so that equates to about 60–120 helpings of chilli spice: probably ample!
I currently have them in the oven to dry out, but that will have to be done over several sessions.
