[CH] Fatalli

Hi there!

I bought Fatalli seeds from Pepper Joe's too.  I brought one
plant in and it's just about dead;  only brought it in to
ripen the fruit on it.  Seems to just plain not like being
indoors.  But Pepper Joe did tell me in another e-mail that
Fatalli does not survive being brought indoors, so he was
right.

On the other hand, I found out that Fatalli is very drought
tolerant.  I accidentally left my seedling in the greenhouse
on a very hot summer's day and the temperate in there was
about 45°C (113°F).  All the seedlings had wilted (although
recovered soon enough with water).  The only exception was
the fatalli seedlings;  none of them seemed to be the least
bothered by being baked...

       Well, I'm afraid I can't help you with that
     problem, but as long as you
     brought up that particular variety... I just
     received some seeds from Pepper
     Joe's, and that is one type I ordered. Does anyone
     have any tips for any
     special care these plants might need (assuming I
     get them to sprout, of
     course). Also, any ideas on what they are good to
     use in would be appreciated.

     TIA,
