[mpicante]

Very nice list.Good luck on the season.Will be following for sure.

 

[stickman]

Alright Terry! Glad to see you're down to it.   I'm guessing one of the Annuums will be the first to pop... probably one of the Thais but the Gochus will be right behind them.

 

[Devv]

And here we go!

 

[Grass Snake]

My guess is Jimmy nardello will hook first

 

[OCD Chilehead]

Nice! I would say Gochu's will pop. Don't need any pods though. Hopefully I send YOU some pods this season.

Good luck Terry. Here's to warmer weather.

 

[bpiela]

The Guajillo will pop first.  Great list as always.

Thanks Flo.   Cheers to a great year for everyone.

You betcha Rick.  I hope I get at least one of each variety to hook.
 
 

And here we go!

 
Thanks Scott!

I may have to keep both of those if the hook.  The wife loves cooking with them as most of the others are too hot for her.

Thanks Chuck!  The days are starting to get longer here and spring will be here soon enough.
 
 
 

The Guajillo will pop first.  Great list as always.

 
 
Thanks Benny!
 
 
 
 
I really hope the Rocoto are productive for me.  Most of them are from TGCM and GIP.  Both have similar type climates and produced for them.   So far no hook action, but I hope to see some life in the next day or two.  

 

[Devv]

They should do really well up your way. The seeds GIP sent me all germed well, so you should be OK with those

 

[tctenten]

Some of the babies are starting to pop up.  Aji Limo Rojo was the first one to break the soil.  A few other popped during the day today while I was at work.  I will snap some pics tomorrow and see which other varieties are up.   

 

[grantmichaels]

Yeah….I am heading towards just buying his pods.   

 

[grantmichaels]

I have so many frozen vac pods from you and him and D3 ...

Never found the will to make sauce ...

Same here.  I made a couple of batches, but still have so many pods in the freezer.   

 

[grantmichaels]

And yet, you are planting out ... LOL.
 

 

[FreeportBum]

did the hatch seeds come from the pods I sent? 

 

[tctenten]

Yes sir. That pepper was a beauty!

 

[stickman]

Nice that you got better than 50%  germination Terry! I'm not surprised that the Pubes are the last to germ... they're usually the slowest-growing. Too bad about the Aji Limo Rojo but hopefully a replacement will germ as quickly. Cheers!
