The seedlings are Thai and the egg carton is Thai seeds. The other little pots have habenero seeds. I'm also gonna try some supperhot seeds when the package arrives from Smiley. (Thanks again Mike)

I'll post progress often I'm sure. Yesterday the seedlings moved from a small six pack to their new nesting grounds. All rest in nothing but organic seed starter soil and water.

Stanley thinks he's a stud by puttin out a couple buds.
 
Sorry no pics, but nearly all of the teenagers have tiny buds. They seem to really want to be all grown up. And think they know everything ; )

Happy Good Friday everyone.

I found a street side farmers market yesterday and bought 1/2 pound of WONDERFUL dried red serranos. I seeded four and planted a solo cup with a couple seeds tonight. The dried pods taste awesome! Gonna have to cook with them soon.
 
I didn't have any Serrano's last season and missed them. But I have at least 2 in the dirt. A good all around pepper.
 
Trying to keep me records straight. Here is what I have:

Six very healthy Thai teenagers (local nursery)

Jojo Scorpion tongue (born April 5)

Chocolate Trinadad Scorpion (born April 13)

The Prik kee nu under the lights had a helmut that I tried to remove. I did this about a week ago and I think I screwed it up. All that stands is a green stalk. I left it alone thinking that it might be OK. Today it is still just a green stick. Seems alive, but how could it servive without a leaf? Should I keep it or replant a prik kee nu ?

It may survive... I would take the chance because seed starting kills me :)

I have had a couple that ended up with no leaves and lived to tell. I have also had good luck soaking my seeds overnight before planting to soften the helmet and They almost all come off on their own.

Nice to see your grow coming along, keep up the good work.
 
Two new hooks tonight:

Rockman's Short Thai Hot(6 days)

Trinadad Scorpian Maruga Satan Strain(12 days)


Going off the heat mat and under the lights.

Ooops, I forgot to mention. Sense the Trinadad Scorpion Maruga Satan strain came up on Easter, we have decided to name that plant JESUS.

He is risen indeed!

How many varieties are you up to these days? It seems like every day you've got more showing up. Also, any luck with our leafless friend?

Cheers,
Spork
