A small Pimientos de Padrón plant lives by the skylight.
She lives there quite well despite a somewhat small pot.
Water is always available, so she has been flowering for quite some time.
She has a roommate with arms instead of branches who keeps opening the skylight.
Thanks to this coexistence the little plant gets regular visits.
Una pequeña planta de Pimientos de Padrón vive bajo el tragaluz.
Vive allí bastante bien a pesar de una maceta algo pequeña.
El agua siempre está disponible, por lo que ha estado floreciendo durante bastante tiempo.
Tiene una compañera de cuarto con brazos en vez de ramas que sigue abriendo el tragaluz.
Gracias a esta coexistencia la pequeña planta recibe visitas regulares.
Whenever the hoverfly passes by, the plant is very happy.
The more flowers it has opened, the longer the fly roams around it.
She doesn't know why the Pimientos de padrón always gets so fuzzy, but it feels right.
Cada vez que pasa el sírfido, la planta es muy feliz.
Cuanto más flores ha abierto, más tiempo la mosca se mueve a su alrededor.
No sabe por qué los pimientos de padrón siempre están tan nerviosos, pero se está poniendo muy caliente.
The hoverfly likes to come by, the flowers taste great.
But every time she comes back, the flowers she ate the last time are hanging with green balls.
Anyway, there are always new flowers.
Al sírfido le gusta pasar, las flores saben muy bien.
Pero cada vez que regresa, las flores que comió la última vez cuelgan con pedazos verdes.
De todas formas, siempre hay flores nuevas.
¡Sigue cultivando algo... y alimenta a los insectos!
Me encanta esta publicación @sifondeseltz. Nunca he pensado en cultivar pimientos. En inglés, cuando veo pimiento, pienso en el queso para untar, que no tiene calor.
¿Son picantes estos pimientos (como en picante)?
I love this post @sifondeseltz. I've never thought about growing pimientos. In English, when I see pimiento, I think of the cheese spread, which has no heat at all.
Are these peppers hot(as in spicy)?
The bigger you let them grow, the hotter they become, in my experience.
If you plant them outside, they produce very large quantities of fruit, a very grateful plant.
Thanks for coming by.
These are small peppers about 2 inches (5 cm) long, with a colour ranging from bright green to yellowish green, and occasionally red.
Their peculiarity lies on the fact that, while their taste is usually mild, a minority (10-25%) are particularly hot.
Whether a given pepper ends up being hot or mild depends on the amount of water and sunlight it receives during its growth, in addition to temperature.
It's said that solely watering the soil of the plant is likely to produce milder pimentos, whilst watering the whole plant, leaves and stalks included, produces peppers of the spicier variety wikipedia
