    Is it possible my peppers are flowering?
    I am growing ghost peppers (bhut jolokia). They are only about a foot tall, but bushy. At the very top and ends of the branches, it appears they are beginning to flower. Is this possible with them only being about a foot tall? They seem so small. If anyone has ever grown these, please relate your experiences with this pepper!

    It's possible and quite normal. Mine are only about 2 feet tall and some of the peppers are ready to harvest already.
