The really annoying part is that despite my bad news (death in the family, that's all I'll say) I seem to have had a ripping good work day. Super productive despite...everything else

Work can do that - keeps emotion at bay, for a while. The hard part will be tonight and this weekend. Hugs and virtual support as needed coming through over the aether. Routine helps a bit.

Good timing with the sheep shit application yesterday.

And I still can't believe this flagship chilli tree. 3rd year, always has leaves and fruit year round. Gave so much of it away yet still left with too much.

Sort of tempted to grow maybe 1 or 2 more and leave it that and do something different in the veg patch this summer. Just no need for more.

A hab/thai sounds confusing. Does it tend earthy, or sharp, or what? Pic looks like wrinkly Thai.

When it started fruiting I was confused lol. It has hints of fruity hab but mainly just pure heat. it was a random cross but it turned out really well surprisingly. Usually the accidental crosses turn out not so great.
