Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.
Trinidad Scorpion Appreciation Grow Event 2010

Patrick, yours are looking like they're coming along well, and seeing as I got these from you I thought I'd post the Scorpion as well. The leaves seem to be very light green, which I think the amount of constant lights is contributing too
the ones in the background are Scorpions as well. I have about 12 going right now and I'll eventually end up with the 2 strongest for full maturity.

that is correct. you'll see in my picture I have only 1 cotlydon...i cut one off with the 2nd to follow soon (not that it makes a difference)

A good practice is to leave some room and as the stem grows, fill the cup. this will help especially with potentially leggy plants, but also non-leggy plants, because roots grow out of the stem once they're buried in soil. more root growth = bonus!
I thought I'd give you all a little teaser pic even though it won't qualify for the "grow event":

I'll give it a right good go
Novacastrian said:I can't recall planting Scotch Bonnets this season and have you ever seen a scotch bonnett that looks like this?
Exactly actually.

Doesn't look exactly the same to me but i do agree that my pod doesn't look like a Scorpion. It is labeled Scorpion though and i have another plant that produces pods that look the same albeit smaller and that labeled Scorpion too.
I will have to wait and see if they produce any classic shaped pods to be sure.

Great thread so far…not that I expected any less…
The pictures of the seed planting, sprouting, plants, and pods are great.
You know, I was just thinking, there is going to be a lot of information to be gathered from the various sources….soooooo…..how about me putting together a spreadsheet with the wanted/needed data and each one of you can let me know what’s happenin’ in a post here so all can see….
I will try and keep a running tab on all the information and post it occasionally….how does that sound?
OK here goes….
Scorpion Color – Red, Yellow, or other
Scorpion Variety – Standard Scorpion, ButchT, Morouga blend, etc.
Source of seeds – if you don’t mind
Number of seeds planted
Germination Temperature -
Germination Temperature constant (+/- 3 degrees Farenheit, you can give it to me in celcius if you want and I will convert), yes, no
Germination Start Date
Germination Media – Rock wool, peat pots, seed starting mix, etc
First sprout date…if you are as anal as I am and look at the germination setup every two hours, you will know when all your seeds sprout – i.e. 1 after 7 days, 5 after 8 days, etc.
Fertilize used – yes, no
If yes to the above, type and amount, i.e. ÂĽ strength Botanicare ProGrow
Other treatments, type and amount – H2O2, Botanicare Liquid Karma, Superthrive, etc.
Here is a picture of the spreadsheet I will be using…and this way, I can see who all is playing….
note: playing with the size to see if you can read it....if it is too big for some, please say so and I can decrease the size of the pic...
if there is any information you would like to know that would be easily collected and tabulated, please say so...my mind is kinda forgetful these days...
