Nah, never seen the seeds for them from a reputable seller sadly! Iโ€™ve got reapers and a couple of naga varieties in the garden though

I thought about getting one but opted not to. Iโ€™ve got south facing windows so all my plants through spring are able to get all the sun they need!

So the chillies part is obvious enough, but why in beer cans?

Do they bear fruit in such small containers?

This is awesome and I need to find a way to do it.

Do you have any problems with gnats?
