    I was finally able to cross pollinate two pepper varieties! They are:

    • yellow bell pepper - just some market variety.
    • dedo-de-moça - Capsicum baccatum, red, 5k~15k Scoville heat units (hotter than a jalapeño, milder than a cayenne), great flavour.

    I want the breed to be: yellow, large, mild but not heatless, finger-shaped. And hopefully more resistant to insects than bell peppers are.

    In the meantime I’m still waiting for my chocolate-coloured habanero to grow flowers, so I can cross-breed it. Likely with dedo-de-moça too, I like the shape.

    Not a whole lot in terms of creative hobbies, but I’ve been pretty consistent at the gym this week 💪 I’m in a bit of a slump wrt strength building so I should probably take some time to rework my routine, but I’ve proved to myself that I can still physically be there even when my life is hectic.

    Also did my second D&D session, using a pre-made character sheet. Gonna try to learn what the hell I’m doing and make my own character soon. :)

    Work has been chaotic this week so the days have been late so far, but I did have time last night to make strawberry muffins with a streusel topping.

    On Sunday I reported my tiny plant collection so I could bring a couple of them to my desk at work.
