Hello steemians, this morning I am trying to post something with the eSTEEM Android app for the first time. So please feel free to make fun of me if my formatting needs work :p
If you remember a little while ago I made a post about the small garden I have growing in pots on the patio behind my apartment.. I thought a small update on the progress of my pepper plants would be a good experiment in posing out of this app. (I am really not used to posting directly from my phone!)
Serrano Pepper
This plant is producing like crazy, it had so many flowers and is growing quite a few pepers. These serranos are technically spicier peppers then a jalepeno, however I tried two of these last night and while the flavor was amazing, the heat was lacking. Perhaps I tried them too soon?
Cayenne Pepper
My cayennes are coming in super nicely as well. These peppers I always leave on the plant until they are mature then pick them and dry them! Way better then any red pepper flakes you can buy in the store!
Anaheim Pepper
The least impressive of my plants so far, yield wise. This one has only begun growing three peppers so far and they are still quite small. However it has quite a few flowers up top shooting out so I am hopeful for a bigger yield as the summer wares on. These peppers are a bit bigger and milder then the other two I have and I plan to take the bunch I get and make mini stuffed peppers with them.
What does everyone think about the formatting of this post? Are the images too large? If so, is there any way to adjust image size through formatting that anyone is aware of? Or is this just a limitation of posting with a phone app?
Any other tips and suggestions. If I can get this to work I think it might be fun to share more photos I take with everyone. This app seems like the ideal method to use in order to do that!
Hi @justtryme90
I think, your prime postings through esteem are so perfect, so no one can make fun of you: D
Your little garden looks neat, and your chilli plant looks also begin to bear fruit.
I also planted it behind my backyard some time ago, only from a different kind of you. :)

Ooh, what variety is this?? It grows the peppers upward.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

This variety is Cayenne pepper. He does not grow up, it's just that when he is immature he follows his growing interest.
Cayenne pepper is a fruit and plant member of the genus Capsicum. In addition to Sumatra, it is also growing and popular as a spice in other Southeast Asian countries. In Malaysia and Singapore he is named the rice cili, the Filipino pheasant patch, and in Thailand phrik khi nu. In Kerala, India, there is a traditional dish that uses chili sauce and is called kanthari mulagu. In English he is known by the name Thai pepper or bird's eye chili pepper.
Chili pepper turns its color from green to red when cooked. Despite its smaller size than other chilli varieties, it is considered quite spicy because its spiciness reaches 50,000 - 100,000 on a Scoville scale. Traditional cayenne pepper is sold in markets along with other chili varieties.

The one I have is also a Cayenne, however none of the peppers have ever grown in an upward direction, even when they were very small. Interesting.

All pepper varieties from bell to jalapeno come from Capsicum Annuum and can look any type of way! Many are grown for ornamental use as well. Check out the medusa pepper below. Often grown for ornament, but also edible. I'm growing habaneros myself. Good looking garden! :)

Esteem is made by @good-karma who is really a great guy and he is about to push out vwrsion 1.8 for android. By the way did you know that cayanne pepper has some very powerful benefits. It helps with the heart and can lower blood pressure. Its also great for blood circulation by removing plaque from the blood stream and it helps in protecting you from cancer and can help you with quite a few health benefits

Yeah you will read a lot about the health "benefits" of a lot of these things. Most of it is just wishful thinking.

Interesting. I am using cayanne pepper to treat my very bad circulation in my legs 3 to 4years now. Could you tell me what part of that is wishful thinking. lol.

There is nothing inherently special about the Cayenne pepper for that function. Capsasin may assist in better blood flow.

As such any hot pepper would achieve a similar result.
You will note I specified some of the purported health benefits are wishful thinking. Not all.

I can't even show off my garden.
It has been invaded by weeds while I've been neglecting it.
Some are taller than me and I'm 6'1.
Let me know how esteem works for you.
I've been reluctant since I saw they take a percentage of rewards.

I've been using it to get mentions on my phone for a while now and it works great. Seemed pretty easy to use as far as making the post. I don't know about their cut of the rewards, someone said 5% which isn't all too bad. Will have to play it by ear. If the images are showing up with a reasonable size then the overall experience I have had today with this is pretty positive.

I've no clue! I will have to watch what happens with this post. Even still, the app is free and has no adds, giving the developer money for his hard work and maintaining an image server (which isn't cheap) seems only fair.

They grow best when they have a good amount of space AFIK (they are large). I don't know how well my limited space with the pots would work for them. Perhaps I would get some smaller bell peppers? I would love to grow some nice yellow or orange bell peppers.
