REDTAIL's 2012 GROWLOG

I guess it is about time I posted some pictures of my 2012 seedlings.

Here's what things looked like in January:

They are growing up fast bro ,... before you know it they will be having pods of their own. Seriously though starting to look the goods ... how long before they can go outside??

Nice. Looks like everything is going smoothly. What are your temps in your grow area?

My set up is in my office in the finished portion of our basement. The temperature is staying right around 75 degrees in there. I have our dehumidifier set at 35% humidity so I can reuse the reclaimed water and get heat and air flow from the fan moving.

In our neck of the woods, our last frost date is normally the middle of May. I'm really hoping we don't have the long, wet spring we had last year. I don't think I was able to plant out until the end of May last year.
 
Those are some serious plants. You got some great varieties and about how many days from sprout are those bad boys in the Solo cups? Everything looks super green and healthy.


Oh, sorry. NAGA!!!!
 
Hey Dan! Got your package today!! thanks much brother. I'm stoked especially by the super hots, and the non-domesticated varieties.

Thanks again brother, and in a couple of months, when I have seed, hit me up :)
 
Just did a seedling count this morning. 399 seedlings (95 in cups) and not including helmet heads or underdeveloped plants. Looks like I'm right on target for the amount of plants I was shooting for.

:party: :party: :party: :party: :party:
 
Hey, Red! Great looking plants! You seem to have it
pretty well dialed in with some great, unique varieties.
Will be fun seeing what kind of pods you get from some
of those. I'll be back : )
 
***MARCH 15th UPDATE: I'm letting most of the seedlings in the trays get at least a second set of true leaves before repotting into Solo cups. This warm weather is still getting me worried and I'm not even considering planting out until the end of April at the earliest.

Full germination trays:

Thanks everyone. I'm in the process of transferring some of the more mature plants upstairs onto the windowsills. It looks like I'll have an early plant-out this season but there is still a lot that can happen between now and May.
 
I think we have the same last frost dates Dan and this weather has me jonesing to get them outside too. Keep fighting it you know as soon as we give in it's going to snow a foot.

Ambitious year you got going, best of luck with it.
 
By the way, I noticed Ajijoe got some of those St Helena seeds you were asking about from someone who was posting about it on his glog thread... You might hit either of them up to see if they have any left over?

Not sure if you saw it or not... But thought I'd give you a heads up.

Ken

Also GRATS on the 2000th post :D :fireball:
 
I believe Joe has the St. Helena's yellow that I have. He told me he had something similar to the acorn but the not the exact pepper I am looking for. Thanks for the heads up though!
