Guru's Garden - Traveling the World in Search of Peppers

Just starting this glog now so it's one less thing to do in a few months when I'm knee deep in compost and getting things in the ground.
 
Not much to report at the moment. Strains yet to be determined, but I'll probably end up growing too many like always...lol
 
 
Only thing that's going on right now is a clean back patio and the chickens doing their part turning over my compost pile on the daily. Intersted in seeing how the soil microbes appreciate the added chicken poop!
 

 

 
Hope everyone has had a decent winter so far and here's to happy germination!
 

 
 
 
EDIT UPDATE: This glog has turned into an ongoing overwintering, greenhouse and soil building how-to!

Thanks! My real rig.

I’m a Canon shooter. Been on Canon bodies for the last 6 years. On this trip I Took my R5, for video my RF 15-35, RF 70-200, 100mm Tokina ATX pro adapted for macro work, 50mm Yashinon adapted, macro flash rig with diffusion mods 3D printed. Variable ND 2-5 stop. Battery grip. Rode NTG with dead cat for audio.

Nice !.... I have been a Canon shooter for the past 14 years ... But can't justify the jump to Mirrorless just yet ... Although the AF on the new cameras is almost worth the price alone in terms of getting that 1 in 1000 shot... Ideally I am wanting to go to the R6 mkII ... But will make do with my EOS 7D and the use of 5D MKIII for now.

Nice. In all honesty, I should be bringing my 5DIII and leave it setup as my macro rig so I can have the R5 as my dedicated video rig. I love how far the mirrorless bodies have come.

As a Nikon shooter, I can't unsee the Gods of the Jungle taking a leak on your Canon

Haha ... I love the Camera Rivalry game ... Same as the computer chip, Mobile phone rivalries... I am of the opinion whatever you like/use/get the best photos/videos/enjoyment out of for your style is the best regardless of brand... ...

But yeah back to your point Nikon sucks (jokes)

It’s because the jungle Gods know it’s weather sealed.
