Thin-walled peppers
I'm looking to discover more peppers (hot and sweet) with thin walls (such that they dry quickly). I haven't found a terrible lot of them, actually, but I've grown a fair number of peppers. These are the ones with thin wqlls I've grown that come to mind:
* Aji Habanero (C. baccatum—not to be confused with Habaneros, which are C. chinense)
* Ring of Fire (Baker Creek's version)
* Orange Carbonero (not super thin, but they dry on the plant)
Ideally, they should be thin enough that they'll dry on the plant in a semi-arid area if you let them. Note that Ring of Fire doesn't seem to do this, but it dries quickly post-harvest.
Ideally, the peppers won't be huge (but they will be prolific). Huge peppers take longer to dry, in my experience. Ideally, they'll have lots of flavor.
