Well done! THANK YOU for joining us this year!
CMJ said:A little update. I decided to drag my ybs plant into the shed in an attempt to mature some of the smaller pods that just set, and hopefully get a few of the new flowers to set pods as well. That was a few days ago, and it seems to be working pretty good so far, but I am realizing that my 2, 4ft t8 light fixtures are not producing nearly enough light for this thing. This plant is massive! The two small areas that are getting good light are looking really good, flowers are open and setting pods, and the rest of the plant is just kind of dead looking. So I have been moving the lights around every couple of days to try to spread the love around, lol! I have my dehydrator running constantly, drying peppers, but also attempting to raise the temperature just enough to keep them alive. So far so good. Just for reference, that is a 55 gallon grow bag, and a 8ft wide Morgan building. I know it isn't nearly as impressive as some of the plants on here, but it is the largest plant I have grown personally. This growdown has definitely helped me step up my game.
DEDICATED!

Awesome poddage!NeedsWork said:Picked a few more to make powder to dust on spicy pretzels.
New total: 4550 = ((314) + 4236)
Edit:
Sliced and ready to go. Along with some pods off of my 3.75 y/o ghost.
Still nothing from mine, very slow as discussed, consumed my flies and aphids now. Used diatomaceous earth on some of the plants and has reduced the aphids, see how it goes.
I'm gonna fold, my cards suck. So play the video...After 7 weeks and 32 plus inches of rain the plant just isn't in the mood. In fact the only pods I have coming in are from the Jalapeno's and a few Aji Oro's.
I held around 20 plants for the usually great fall harvest. I must admit here just east of the desert, I've never had a grow season end with this much rain. I have no skills in that department....

It's better than nothing right? Still have quite a few green pods and flowers.
Anyway, it puts me on the board at least, at a whopping 8g!

So... quality over quantity? It looks great anyway.

Might have done that if the first 5 weeks of the rain weren't most every day.
I was eating lunch this week and the guy in the next table, a rancher I know, about 72-75 years old says " no one I know has ever seen more than a 2 week rain here". "yeah, we may get the inches, but never this duration". Just astronomical losses in the South Texas cotton crop this season...
