Everything is surviving the 100F heat pretty well, to my delight. Tropical Tigers, community project populations, and personal breeding populations all doing great with drip and straw mulch. We're supposed to finally get rain tomorrow which everything will appreciate. Unrelated, but I have 250 plugs of purple lovegrass I need to plant out to start my sound abatement meadow, so it can't come soon enough.
I'm really glad to see tropical tiger survive the heat well, that is something I struggle with on sugar rush stripey (the parent of tropical tiger). I feel like SRS is susceptible to high light and heat, leading to photobleaching. Let me know your experience with baccatums, I'd love to hear 'em.

Love baccatums! They very often require extra stakes in my experience, but man are they prolific producers when treated right!
Hope you’re well man! Been loving my 3 year old Fidalgo Roxa x Aji charapita hybrid from the 2021 community project. it’s a weekly dinner treat to eat those tiny pods packed with heat and a habanero-esque taste.
**Edit: oh!! And the SRP x yellow Brazilian starfish was AMAZING in both taste and shape, too!! I have a pound of them dried out so I need to use some of those seeds soon.**
