@GraemeE Nice! I had four big figs this season, (long over now), which I was more than happy with given the locale. They look scrumptious; enjoy!
-
@goosehd Looks tasty, even if I don’t like them.
Are these very hot? -
@Tago-Mago Carolina Reapers and Ghost Peppers...just a little bit of spice there
@Mister_Brue Extremely hot!!!

@Tago-Mago That reaper was the one that hurt me last week and was the first time I've ever regretted eating a whole uncooked pepper.
-
@Tago-Mago Take it slow and easy when you do try them as a Habanero is a great pepper to cook with. Depending on the dish you may only need one or two and how much spice you like and can tolerate.

Mango season arrived slightly early this year. Probably due to the unusually dry spell we’ve had. With the two very large trees I have here, mangos are ALWAYS super abundant between November and January. Many spoil, and many are given away.
These are the most common mango type around here. Super hardy and huge, very long-lived trees. Fruit itself is very tasty and sweet, but quite ‘stringy’; so fibers tend to get stuck between teeth. That is the main drawback to it, and other varieties are becoming increasingly popular and more sought after.
Just picked up the fallen ones since yesterday. Storm approaching, getting windy and these guys start coming down.
Many unripe ones still waiting for December sun rays to start turning yellow/orange. -
@motojobobo Cool. Embarrassingly I’ve never seen them hanging on the tree like that. Do you ever make Mango chutney, or does the stringyness prohibit that to some degree?
