SKULLBIKERS 2019 Container and Kratky GLOG

I am starting an indoor grow experiment so I might as well start the new years glog at the same time. Today I threw 3 seeds in the dirt(hoping for 66% germination). I will keep 1 in dirt and 1 in Kratky. These will stay in my grow room under my 8000K T8 shoplights from the beginning through fruit.

Recycling the coco coir from my Daikon Radishes, lots of good organic stuff there.

Mixed 50/50 with Miracle Grow potting soil.

Took everything out of the basement and started potting up the ones that were still in 4 inch pots. The clear outside structure is beginning to live up to its name.

I just thought I would post a couple of pics of my Rocoto Montufar after a little discussion with Podz. It germinated/began life on January 10, 2019. It is growing well with the secret formula FSST. And the pods are finally achieving a decent size. I hope I get 1 or 2 ripe ones before the final move/load leaves this frozen tundra, because at that time it will have to get whacked down to nearly nothing to save room on its 1600 mile journey.

I missed the part where your potential 9B residency switched from if to when.

Looking good! Imagine that as a hanging plant, might do even better :-)
 
My Montufar is about 3-4 weeks from germination now. It's about 10cm tall and already forked. Never seen a pepper fork so early in life. It's living outside now so I expect it to slow down for a while.
 
Good luck with the move, where are you going?

Looks yummy!
 That's a pretty impressive plant! 
 Final Move?
  

By final move, I mean it will take more than 1 trip to haul 45 years worth of treasured crap!

Supposed to close on the new(to me) house May 31, if all goes as planned.

Nearly all of my rocotos forked at the third set of leaves.
I am headed right near the geographical center of Florida.

Climate: probably very good

I have a photograph that no one will ever see of me and my son coming out from under a creek bridge on a dirt road between Babbitt and Thunder Bay MN, after stopping for a quick bladder relief on a trip to the North Shore. The mosquito swarm was so thick all over both of us that our upper bodies and faces actually looked obscured.
 
Only place bugs are worse than northern MN is just about anywhere in Canada....except our mosquitos carry a quarter of the death-dealing diseases your tropical strains do...

I became a true believer in this product last year. The mosquitos were about 3/4 less last year when I used these. I have already bought some for the SOUTHERN property.
