Hi everyone!
I've been a lurker for some time now, but ever since Covid I have been really getting into bonsai!
I know this specific species isn't popular and has a short life span (all chilies in general), but as jalapenos are native to my area I couldn't pass up on this opportunity!
My other hobby is cooking, and this will serve as a good addition to my garden while feeding into my bonsai addiction . I started these indoor from seeds that were engineered by Texas A&M back in the start of the year and transitioned them outside after our last freeze. This is the most recent picture, I have since placed it into a larger pot and have started to see one jalapeno growing already!
I know this picture isn't the best, it's raining outside and I'm lazy. I'm a complete beginner so the purpose of this was to share my progress and document my and my plants' growth. Since I have already made some movement in the lower trunk, I suspect it will stay this shape. Now I will let it grow and produce some summer peppers.
I will be updating this as my journey continues!
I also have a bonus pic - twin trunk habanero seedling I wanted to share, growing slower than my jalapeno at the moment.
