Megamoo's 2012/2013 Glog

I'm in a new house with much more space, better sheltered areas for plants and hopefully less disease in the environment. Unless I win the lottery and buy myself a mansion I'm good to stay here for a long time. The landlord knows about and is cool with the fluorescent light grow setups in the garage, and is happy for me to transform the outside into a chilli jungle. All signs point to a good season ahead.

Winter has just begun, and I've got the germinating and growing on stations setup. Chilli seeds are in the post flying to my door.

This is the current seed list I have to choose from, including varieties ordered but yet to arrive.

Many of these are just one or two seeds leftover from old stock and I won't be planting everything. A lot of the ornamentals will be getting just one plant. I'm might still get some more 7pots and superhot varieties.

The garden beds need a little work, and retic needs to be sorted but I've got a few months to do that. I'll post pictures when I have them.

It survived the season to the end but didn't do anything.  That picture shows it at its absolute best.  Never produced any pods, not sure why, it was overgrown and crowded out by others and got lost in the jungle but it should have done more.  I think the seed stock was bad because another Limo Blanco I forgot about in another part of the garden did even worse, only got a foot high.  Could be coincidence and they both just had a bad environment.
Some varieties would have out competed the other varieties in a crowded situation. Did you remove the Limo Blanco plants back when you pulled up the other plants?
 
Yep they are all pulled up, I went for a clean start.  I don't think it was out competed because it got to the size in that picture and then just stopped.  Over the following months the others slowly grew all over it.
 
 
The Hydro Grow Station got some work done on it today involving fiberglass resin. ;)  Not my one of my most favourite things to do.
 
Nice how this season allowed you to figure out exactly what spacing and what changes to make to your beds. I'll be looking forward to your next Glog
 
I've started a new glog and new seedlings but I thought I'd show the result of the 2012/2013 season.  :D

I've got a bit of of processing ahead of me!
