Long Red Chilies From My Garden

Today is another hot day. The current temperature is 31 deg C at midday. 
Sunrise seen at the park at about 7:35 am.
After having watered the plants in my garden, I washed off the layer of dust collected on the cars. Later, I will have to mop the floor of my house too.
This man is seen with a big net at the pond but he is not catching fishes.
I wonder what he is catching with the net.
Back to my garden - a chili plant grown from discarded seeds.
Most of my chili plants grow from discarded dried chili seeds.
Whenever I used the dried chilies, the seeds are thrown together with other vegetables scraps as fertilizers for my plants.
These chilies are the long and skinny type.
Even the plants are skinny too.
Happy to see the amount of chilies on the plants.
Some are ready to be harvested.
What should I cook with these chilies?
These chilies look very hot.
First harvest from the chili plant.
One of the day's harvest.
The chilies may look hot but to my surprise, they were not hot at all.
They can be eaten raw like capsicum without a slightest bit of hotness.

My true disciples produce bountiful harvests.
This brings great glory to my Father.
(John 15:8, The Living Bible-TLB)
Linking to Good Fences.

  17. Sometimes I buy peppers that are supposed to be hot but in fact are quite mild. It is frustrating when the dish we are cooking requires hot peppers.

    1. Could be very disappointing if they do not give the hotness required.
