Welcome to THP from Ontario,Canada.
 
Cool list my friend! This is also my first season growing peppers! (Other than some jalapeños and thai chilies where all I did was water them haha) I am deffinently will follow your grow! I want to see how them big jims come out! I am a huge fan of the New Mexico hatch. Next season I'll definantly grow some hatch and big jims!
Good luck!
 
So far one white Hab and a few Taz Hab have sprouted and moved up from the paper towel. I also am playing with germinating mediums and have a few seeds in rock wool, coir, and dirt just to compare times.
 
Order from Pepper North showed up today and now these are all germinating.
Pequin
Coyote Zan white
White Naga
Cherio Roxa
White 7 pot
 
Possibly another order going in to him soon, Super impressed with his service.
 
couple of random shots, quite a few have hooked and been transplanted.

White naga seeds from pepper north, showed up in the mail on the 18th and here is how they looked as of 0800 this morning. 3/3 in a day and a half to crack is impressive in my mind.

So Far pretty good success with the starting. Most seeds have come up or are just poking through with the exception of the Lemon drops. A complete failure with them.
 
I put another order in with pepper north which should round out this year.
 
One Taz Hab growing some funky leaves.

Moved the majority up to cups to get things going.
 
finally decided to stop playing games and hooked up the Mars Hydro 300w LED. I expect the growth to start taking off as the little fellas didn't have any where near sufficient lighting.
 
Started a couple more varieties in the paper towel, Peach scorpion, Mustard Maruga, serrano, sweet Datil and Farmers market Jalapeno.
 
I have promised some plants to co-workers which is a good thing, all said and done i am hoping to bring 40 - 45 plants in to the spring. Any more and I will end up looking at some space issues.

Can't wait to see the results.  I've been considering trying one of those.  Plants look great!   Edit: typo, need more coffee
 
Im wondering if anyone has had issues with Pequin germination? the lack of action from them is frustrating. Most other varieties, less some super hots that have only been down a week or so, have played nice. Any tricks to getting those little guys going?
