The Cayenne Plants have started growing

Cayenne plant

pots and soil.
Although not for much longer as the plants are nearly big enough
to be moved to the allotment.


Another use for chillies

A Jalapeno being used as a battery.
In this example copper wire and a steel nail are used.


You can get voltage just by probing the pepper with
a sensitive meter {from 0 to about 2 volts.}
Although you get about a half a volt, the current
