I was able to pot up some more plants yesterday, mainly rocoto. We're going to be getting rain for the next 5 days, so I will have to finish the rest next Tuesday.

I also got a chance to bottle some braggot that I'll be drinking on this summer while tending to my chile crop.

Well, it's been raining for 5 days straight, and doesn't look like it's going to let up any time soon. I was able to snap a few pics of some of my rocoto plants that are doing pretty well, despite not seeing the sun in 5 days, and 55 degree average daily temps. I can't wait for the clouds to finally go away next weekend.

Looking good.How old is your Aji Largo ?
Mine just started to flower and is full of buds.
I started it late last year. It was the only aji largo seed to germinate out of like 30, lol! I had it in a 1 gallon container til last week, and it got pretty stocky. It has only seen a half day of sun since being outside, so I don't expect it to start flowering til June. It seems like it is going to be an absolutely massive plant though, that's why I potted into such a big pot.

love all the Pubes !
 
 
 
i've got some healthy plants from some of our seed trades last year :D  Thanks again.
 
 
 
 
:cheers:
G.I.P.
I'm glad you got some healthy plants going from those seeds! I'm going quite a few varieties from the seeds you sent me as well, a couple examples:

The PDN x Bhut is such a neat plant. The coloring on it is awesome. This little chocolate brainstrain is already turning into a bush. Some very healthy genetics there.

Thanks again for that seed trade!

We are getting absolutely hammered with rain right now. It will be interesting to see how well my peppers take it. Only the strong survive!

Another Virginia grower!  Fantastic.  I'm in South East Virginia!   I got my first batch of plants outside, and I got a new batch of 20+ (5 varieties) getting with their first set of true leaves coming on.    
 
Glad to see another Virginia grower out there.  Impressive list and grow so far.  I can't wait to see the harvests.

Definitely glad to see another Virginia grower on the forum for sure! I would imagine that you will probably have a longer growing season than I will by a week or two. NOVA got absolutely drenched last night, at least the flooding wasn't too bad. There are a lot of holes in the leaves of all of my plants, and some leaves are torn off, or in half, but from what I can tell I didn't lose any plants completely. I'll double check this evening when I get off of work. I'm sure they'll bounce right back stronger than ever though. Good luck on your grow there Vicious Vex!
