I pronounced all my overwinters dead today. They were badly neglected over the winter while we were focusing all our energy on the new baby. This year's crop will now be 100% fresh from seed.
Roughly 40 plants going outside in a week, feels good to get started again!
Finally I've bounced back from losing my plants over the winter. Half a dozen new sprouts and counting for 2014...
Our new son is 4 weeks old today and 80% of my 3-4 month old plants are dead. A shift in priorities, perhaps?
Overwintering 11 plants next week, and already approaching 25 new plants for 2014.
My Spicy Mustard Habs won a blue ribbon at the local fair. NEATO!
Came home today to find that birds have pecked holes in 2 of the 3 CGN21500's I had picked out to enter in the fair this Sunday.
Enough with this 3 pods a day nonsense... I want just one last BIG harvest this year.
Any other chess nerds on THP? I play under same name at gameknot.com.
Both nights of Phish in Alpharetta, GA were killer.
Inhaled Black Naga powder about 30 minutes ago...still miserable.
Pods all over the place...'til the REAL high temps arrive.
Munch my first Scotch Bonnet today. So this is what the fuss is all about!
Harvested about a pound so far this year. Still shooting for 1-2lbs of powder by the fall.
Stoked for my first real harvest of the year in less than a week.
Harvested 3 ripe pods today. Biquinho Yellow is delicious and the Billy Boy Red Douglahs...gotta build up some nerve for those guys.
My Spicy Mustard Habs are GIGANTIC, and not even ripe yet - suntan only. I'm predicting 2 overwinters...
My pepper plants all survived the flood last night. The tomatoes weren't so lucky...
3/6 overwinters made it back. Not so bad for my first attempt.
