Yaargh's 2015 Glog (maybe I'll grow something this year)

In a new house and I've set up 8 4' x 8' raised beds.  Drip irrigation will be installed following the tax return.
 
Last few years I've been largely unsuccessful.  School and moving kept me from enjoying fresh homegrown peppers.
 
Now that I'm a bit more stable location-wise I can concentrate in establishing an awesome garden.
 
So far I have filled a 72 seedling tray with:
 
Papa Joe's Yellow Scotch Bonnet
Scotch Bonnet TFM
Caramel Morouga
Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion
Jay's Red Ghost Scorpion
7pot Bubblegum
Trinidad Scorpion Morouga Red
Trinidad Scorpion Morouga Yellow
Trinidad Scorpion Butch T
Trinidad Scorpion Yellow CARDI
7pot Jonah
7pot Primo 
7pot Primo Orange
Bahamian Goat
Jamaican Scotch Bonnet MOA
Scotch Bonnet Foodarama
Nagabon
Nebru
SB7J
Jigsaw
Harold St. Bart's
Sport 
NUMEX Vaquero
NUMEX Espanola
NUMEX Heritage Big Jim
Padron
Biker Billy Jalapeno
 
I have a few more pepper varieties that will help fill another 72 jiffy pellet tray.
 
I'll be using 1/2 strength Fox Farm nutrients once they have their 1st or 2nd set of true leaves.
 
A seedling tray minus hooks isn't terribly exciting so no pics until then.
 
Edit:
2/19/2015 - Heat mat arrived for second 72 cell tray. Waiting on some additional seeds then it will be completely sowed. 2 Sport and 1 Vaquero have germinated, no hooks quite yet.
 
Varieties waiting to germinate include:
Big Jim
Trinidad Scorpion Moruga Yellow
Scotch Bonnet Foodarama
Trinidad Scorpion CARDI Yellow
Trinidad Scorpion Butch T
7pot Jonah
7pot Primo Orange
7pot Primo 
 
Everything else has popped
