SKULLBIKERS Fun with peppers in 2021 GLOG

And so it begins, another year of growing some peppers. This will be a sort of continuation of last year

as several of those plants are still going(and many got whacked and ended up on the burn pile). 
 
Anyway, I have 3 trays of peppers sown and many have germinated already(mostly annums). I wanted to compare several different jalapeños for taste in real time. This tray is all jalapeños, ten types from 7 different vendors. The seeds in block 3 are from 2014.

Another tray with annums at each end and mostly rocotos in the middle(and they're taking their sweet time).

Looks good let me know how the jalapeno taste comparison goes!
Will do. And I will probably be using them in this years FLOG(food log). I will be starting the new one soon as I just yesterday made up a new batch of kohlrabi kimchi.

Good luck this season!
 
What's in the 3rd tray?
I suppose the chinenses?
There isn't much for chinenses, so far. The third tray has a bunch of old seeds planted as a last ditch effort to see if they are viable.

A few of PollenNuts Poblano X Scarletts Chili F2 crosses to grow out. If the pods are as prolific and tasty as the F1, there's going to be a lot of sauce and relish!

Ive started a few of these same peppers (F2).  It's hard for me to tell by the pic but do you see any varigation on any of the leaves?  Out of the 3 that I started, one has white areas on some leaves.  
The F1's were tasty!

They were rather tasty!
I have not noticed any variegation yet, but they did just germinate. A couple of them do have purple stems though.
 
A few pics of some young jalapeno plants.
Some Mucho Nacho Jalapenos.

These are the last to germinate in the flat of jalapenos(they were in block 3 of the tray in post #1). 
They are Primo Jalapenos from Gurneys, the seed was from 2014. I think last year was the only year in the last 9 or 10 years that I did not grow these.

Paquime Hybrid Jalapenos, last year these were some LARGE jalapenos.

And Biker Billy Jalapenos, not always large but usually good flavor.

I'll finish off with some non-jalapenos, Antep Aci Dolma.
