Schrade's 2014 Grow Log

So I am a few days behind on this, but thought I would go ahead and start a grow log to share my 2014 grow. I actually planted on 12 January and already have some hooks! (Pictures to come this weekend). I've always grown some vegetable, but a friend introduced me to THP and I've been hooked every since. Thanks to everyone who helped make the below grow list possible, I really appreciate it and hope to pay it forward in the future.

2014 Grow List:

Once everything is read I'll plant outdoors in raised beds and a few in pots. I'll do my best to keep up with this. God luck to everyone in 2014!

nice list! no super hots?
Thanks! I have a few super hot seeds types, but not sure what I will do with them if I plant them. I'll probably end up planting at least one when I plant tomatoes. :)

Here are the super hots, at least I think they are all considered super hots, that I have. Any recommendation on which to plant?

Bhut Jolokia Indian Carbon
Trinidad Scorpion Moruga
King Naga
Annie Einstein
7-Pot Douglah Red
 
Howdy, Schrade, good luck with the 2014 grow season!

So I have been really bad about updating this
 
Yesterday was 2 weeks and the majority of my plants have sprouted and some are starting to get true leaves.  I've had to replant a few, so still waiting on those to come back.  I'll probably start to pot some up in small 3 or 4 inch (can't remember what size they are) pots over the weekend where they will stay until mid march when I plant in the ground or larger pots outside.
 
I noticed a few of the leaves are yellowing on the outer edges, any idea what this could be?  I hadn't removed the humidity dome until today and it seemed to be the tallest plants.  Also went ahead and raised the light a bit since they are growing and may have been getting to much heat.
 
Finally, how do I upload pictures?  I've taken quite a few and would like to show the setup and an example of the yellowing.
 
Thanks!!
