They just won't stop growing. This is my fourth harvest and I'm barely half way through and the harvested ones are still fruiting.
I think I may have went a tad too far this season. My tummy hurts.
@Bottom_racer will gladly provide advice on what to do with a bountiful chilli harvest no doubt.
Haha, yeah Bottom_racer does sauces and that's far beyond my skill level so I'm just dehydrating them and giving excess bags away to friends :)
I am generally too scared to do sauces, but I made myself do a fermented one last year using exquisite yellow scotch bonnets, and it was SO totally worth it (then I had to move and it got contaminated).
I definitely recommend having a go at it some time, even just a tiny batch for yourself. It was actually not as hard as I thought - despite the many gurus out there who overcomplicate things
frends and fam
I'm gonna ferment mine then blend them with roast capsicum (and a little chickpea, garlic, salt and vinegar).
