So, what is the contest about, i.e. what are the judging criteria? Number of fruits, mass of fruits, largest fruit, I don't see anything mentioned in the opening post. @DIY.Rik it is all the same fruit, all Capsicum. Chil(l)i Peppers, Bell Peppers, Peppers vs. Paprika.

@Mrs Beefheart you realise those ornamental pepper plants you show of in your opening posts, usually receive one or multiple rounds of growth regulator sparyed on the green parts of the plant to reduce the growth of the plant and ensure fruits stand out over the canopy.

As for seed packs, erhm you do realise each pepper contains seeds. So one uses ones own harvest, or one gets some grip/zip baglets with dried seeds from (online) friends.

Anyway can't enter as i will not reach 50 posts this season. Plants have experienced serious stunted growth and other weather related issues, anyway, so are only now catching up. Now onto the rest of the thread.

Sorry to go a bit off topic, Does any UK pepperhead know a good place to get some fairy lights seeds? I've been trying for a long time to get some but the places either have bad reviews or out of stock when I've searched.
The folks of the Dorset Naga, and Nigel the 2K+ Dorset Naga plant, of yoiutube fame.

Get it now or in the fall following the new harvest, for sowing next January/February.

Multiquoting doesn't seem to work well, at least not intuitively, but @Chad.Westport even when there isn't an heat wave, you should be fine growing Chilli peppers outdoors there. Perhaps you might be better off with Annuums or the Smaller Asian peppers. Lemon Drop usualy will do nicely aswell, a staple variety among amateur growers in your potential new home country. Of course seeding is best done around 28 degrees Celicum, so stick them in your sowing tent in January or February.
