PaulG 2019

No grow log for the 2018 season other than the Pimenta de Neyde x Bonda Ma Jacques
thread dedicated to Trippa's cross. That one is an ongoing community project going into
second year and a test of the F7 generation. I imagine I will mention it once-in-a-while in
this thread, but the details of its progress will be in the dedicated thread.
 
I am deciding on a grow list for the 2019 season after growing only Trippa's cross this
season (2018). I definitely have some old favorites that will comprise the great majority
of the grow. I have limited space, so I'm counting on nature to help me make the final
decision. I'll probably start lots of seeds since I'm gun-shy from the poor germination
rates the past couple of seasons.
 
Here's the pool. Would be nice to be able to grow a bunch of all of them!  I think my
neighbor will shelter the overflow in his yard, but we'll see what to plant and how many
based on what might germinate  :rofl:
 
c. chinese - 10 varieties: 
  • PdN x BMJ, F7, white and violet varieties, Trippa's cross
  • Fatali, F2 of seed from Pepper Joe's
  • 7 Pot Burgundy, brown phenotype, pecan shape from 2017 F2 of the 7PB from Windchicken 
  • Scotch Bonnet, MoA, F2 of seeds from John/Sim, not high production, but some nice pods
  • JA Red Habanero, F5 of seed from Walk Good/Devv
  • Yellow Scorpion, F7 aka Yellow Trinidad Moruga Scorpion and CARDI Scorpion, from Spankycolts plant 2012
  • Bhut Jolokia, Red, F4, from Spankycolts plant 2012
  • Bhut Jolokia, Chocolate, F3 of seed from Georgia Growhead
  • Bhut Jolokia, hybrid, F2 - I believe it is a  (BJred) x (Pdn x BMJ F1 or F2)
  • Yellow 7 Pot, F2 of seed from Trippa 2013
c. annuum - 4 varieties:
  • JA Red Mushroom, F3, brown phenotype, seed from Refining Fire
  • Pimenta de Padron - Spanish seed, fry up while small and green, throw on some salt
  • Pimenta del Piquillo - Spanish seed, sweet, very flavorful, small stuffers
  • Guindilla - Spanish seed, spicy heat, great pickled, long and skinny
c. frutescens - 2 varieties:
  • Nagahari from Tezpur, India, supposedly very, very hot freebie from Pepper Joe's 2017
  • Chili Costa Rica, F2 (2014) from Hippy Seed Company seed, 2012
c. pubescens - 1 variety:
  • Red Rocoto, F3 of Peruvian Market seed, 2016
That about does it. Seeding time will be here before we know it!

Looking good. I've only used rock wool cubes for rooting hops, but they worked great for that.

I forgot to mention, I'm trying to grow out some
descendants of seed you sent me in 2013. The
7 Pot Burgundy, two phenos, and the 'Funky'
Reaper. Both have germinated and I am awaiting
hooks. I think the last one was renamed Peach 
Arkansas Reaper, or something like that. Anyway,
buddy, thought you'd like to know!
 
Oh, yeah, Page Topper in my own thread  :party:
:dance: Take that Villains!
 
Yeah, if I remember correctly, I had a "Funky Reaper" from Scott that threw out some peach pods. Maybe he can chime in on this.

I forget what I was calling it. I'm less concerned with names these days.

That Burgundy was an amazing strain from PL. Big plants, giant pods, and multiple colors. One plant in particular I remember had 11 pods per node. I hope the ones you have do well.
 
You can ignore this - records-keeping   :rofl:
 
Ones that did not germinate, seeds brown.
   Yellow 7, Bj hybrid var., BOC Din Bjarne

I have some more BOC Din Bjarne seeds if you want! ;)

I still have 3 or 4. Now that I have germinated a
couple of 2014 seeds in the rockwool, I'll be more
comfortable trying them again after this replacement
round of seeds goes. Do you know what year they are?
 
Thanks for the offer, Marc  :cheers:
 
MarcV said:
I did buy them right before my decision to do an entire scotch bonnet season, so they should be recent...
 
edit : I ordered them on September 9, 2018

Wow. Then the seeds I have left should
be good for next season. Unless none of
the other SB germinate for me, then I'll
give all the rest of the seeds a go!

Try few with the air-bruning method and some hydroponic fertilizer inside a big mini greenhouse, a good way to start plants before you put them somewhere.

Yeah, these little guys would be perfect.
I may try that with my round II seeds   :think:
 
These five seedlings finish out the Round One part of my grow,
except for the replacement seeds, which should be interesting,
because there are more older seeds in the replacement round,
i.e. 2013-2016.  The first round had only two seeds older than
2017  :think:
 
The hooks from the replacement round should start to show in a
week or so. At least I'm hoping :pray:
 
The first five of these hooked on the 14th, the last one this morning.
That makes 21 plants on the shelf now. Germination lasted two weeks.
I will need to give away a few, but not too many. I like having doubles
where I can.  My neighbor will grow the extras, for sure.

Yeah I think trying to make it till they go outside will be one of my biggest challenges...maybe even more so then trying to get pods ripe before frost..but they kind of go hand and hand imo for me anyways
