Charlesquik's Growing 2017 2.0
Time for a new glog as photobucket destroyed all the pictures links.   I uploaded all my photos to imgur   Ill try my best to remake it ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   I started planting when the snow was starting to melt around February 19th.   The main goal this year is to make the prototype of an automated greenhouse. We will then make a big greenhouse on the family woodlot that need zero human intervention.    Also we are going to use automation for almost everything.     I tried to chose the right balance between super hot and mild so everyone in the family is happy   2 x Yellow 7 pot 2 x Farmer market jalapeno 2 x Aji cito 1 x Reaper 2 x Fresno 1 X Brain...
So things have been slow ...I have been slow to get things going with my plants... Summer has officially arrived weather wise in the last week only to officially finish technically in 2 days time ... Its been cool and wet ... My glasshouse after some wild winds combined with UV damage on old plastic has rendered it useless for now. I had a few overwinters which I planted out. A few overwinters which are still in little pots which are finally away now. And a few new plants outside as well. All in all I will be lucky to get any ripe pods this year. (Although plans are afoot for some lights and DWC buckets for an experimental winter grow for this hydroponic vigin [emoji1] ) List of current plants: Chinense: 7 pot Primo x 2...
***I should have been logging my grow through the entire season in this section. I will continue the remainder of the season here and start a new log when I begin my 2018 grow.***   This season I decided to try growing my peppers completely under a cold frame. I wanted to find out if the plants would perform better under the plastic. They definitely have far exceeded what I was expecting to happen . My plants are massive by comparison to last seasons plants growing in open air. I also have gotten more production from my peppers over last season.    On July 11th I posted a video tour of my pepper garden. The plants were already looking great and the July temperatures were helping the plants start to grow fast.     I made a second...
I am starting early this year. maybe 3-4 weeks left here for outdoor growing and it will be time to put most of it to rest. I will be bringing a few plants indoors for the winter and as such, my seed starts my be more restricted this year. Lots of white flies showing up this fall and I would like to check them before the indoor retreat. Aphids? Yeah, they may hitch a ride but they are of no concern to me.   Big changes to next years grow. going to container grow again, but I am upgrading to 10 and 15 gal pots. haven't decided which yet though. 10s are wider and 15 gal are deeper.   I will continue using Nectar for the Gods nutrient line as it has not let me down and I am making inquiries as to setting up a tea making process as well.  ...
Charlesquik's 2017 Glog
Here we go for another year!    Let hope its better than last year where half my plants didnt even produce.   Im gaining experience every season so it can only get better.   This year growing list :   2 x Yellow 7 pot 2 x Farmer market jalapeno 2 x Aji cito 2 x Fresno 1 X Brain X Bhutlah (pepper north) 1 X Ghenghis (pepper north) 1 x Wiri Wiri 1 x Ôt Hièm  2 x Starfish 2 x Fatalii 1 x Trinidad perfume 1 x 7 pot chocolate gigantic SR 2 x Lìmon 1 x Trinidad moruga scorpion 1 x red scotch bonnet 2 x Aleppo (jeffcontonio) 2 x Aji jobito (jeffcontonio) 2 x Gold bhutlah ( pepper north ) 2 x 7 pot Lava (pepper north)     Red = new pepper this year   For a total of 31 plants   Man there is so much snow this year!     The greenhouse is doing...
Did up a video for my first Grow Log entry: Currently have a Carolina Reaper, Red Ghost, Red Hab, Yellow 7 Pot, and a 'Dirty' Naga growing.  Moving it all indoors in an attempt to keep them alive and see some production over winter. Have a few others started in a Jiffy tray, not sure where I'm going to fit everything yet but I'll figure it out!  Any future videos will have the camera rotated, I promise, this was something I even made note of before I started making this and it just didn't happen. :(
Hello.   So, i drug my feet doing this whole thing; started late for my zone (7a) but at least I got it going at all.  I have a bunch of little sprouts going on with cotyledons and all that, but DANG, i feel like i'm way behind, with the final frost s'posedly coming in the next few weeks.  So, I also ordered some plants from Cross Country Nurseries (aka chileplants.com) as a Plan B.     I gotta get a bunch of pictures up, but all i have right now are some nondescript sproutlings in some dirt.  I also gotta build some raised beds and whatnot.  So, yeah, I'll take some pics once i have interesting crap to take photos of.  The plan is to put a few 8'x4' beds into my tiny backyard, and work a few beds over at the local community garden...
Thought it was about time to start my first ever glog here :) I'm very lazy and too busy to update it properly but i'll do my best. This year i'm making an extra effort to keep the list tight and grow what i really like taste-wise, just a couple 'experiments'. Here's what i've sowed so far (some seedlings already up): - Myanmar Naga (landrace Burmese Naga pheno courtesy of Grant/JungleRain) - Bih Jolokia Improved Light Green (originally from Frontal Agritech, courtesy of Chris Phillips) - Yellow Bhut (scored on THP i forgot from whom... hoping is a true to form gnarly pheno or it will meet the axe LOL) - Bhut Jolokia CPI (original release courtesy of Chris Phillips) - Sonoran Chiltepin (wild landrace by narom8) - Tamaulipas Chiltepin...
Started some seeds today for the 2017 season.  Starting chinense's earlier than last year but at this time last year, I had already started a bunch of baccatum's and that was a mistake. Let's get this party started!   Sown 6 seeds of each of the following Chinense varieties today in a 60 cell Bio Dome.  Put 2 seeds per cell, so each variety takes up 3 cells...

Spicy Nug's 2017 Glog
Here is my 2017 Grow Log from Upstate NY.   Hello everyone, second year growing super hots. Grew about a half dozen varieties last year, and increased the volume a bit this year to around 25-30 types. Started the seeds in February, planning to make a bunch of sauces and pepper jellies along with drying/smoking and powdering whatever I can't use. About 25 plants are in 3/5 gallon buckets or 7 gallon fabric pots and the rest are in my garden area with about a dozen tomato plants.   Variety List:  Aji Jobito, Aji Pineapple, Aji White Fantasy, Anaheim, Bahamian Beast, Bahamian Goat, Big Yellow Mama, Bleeding Borg 9, Chocolate Hab, Chocolate Scorpion, Giant Butch T x Reaper, Giant White Habanero, Jalapeño Yellow, Malawi Piquante, MOA Scotch...

California grown and still kicking out peppers.
Hey guys it's been some time since I've been active here on the site. Haven't stepped away from growing peppers entirely, back on July 4 the whole family packed up and moved a town over.  Left majority of my babies in the ground and only took what was reasonable to fit in my vehicle. I did do a transplant, I mean a full on full bush transplant. Talking about shock I thought i had lost it but never gave up on it, watered it weekly till i saw signs of life and it finally made a come back... All right guys enough of me rambling on lets get down to the ladies....   Starting off is the all famous Mr. Jalapeno on a stick...     Here we have the PI 260567 one of my favorite now....     These are a first for me to grow, Scotch Bonnet MOA Red...
morro's garden
Hi all, This is my second year growing peppers and also my second glog here. I have overwintered 10 plants and have been battling aphids for 4 months. I am winning, but because of the neem oil applications the new growth and flowers got burned. They are still alive though... The OW list, not 100% sure, have to check the labels: Scotch Bonnet Red Peach Bhut Jolokia Red Bhut Jolokia Fatalii 7pot Brain Strain Yellow (it's orange actually) Douglah Brown 7 pod Moruga Scorpion Carolina Reaper Habanero orange Habanero Carribean Red   Received a ton of seeds (see below) from az1000 so this year will be an experiment of pubescens grow in a not so friendly environment. They were started on 2 February. Today, the germinated vs sow list is:  ...
JustOsmo - 2017 Grow
Just figured I'd make a place to post all my pictures. Just took my three biggest plants out of the Greenhouse cold box and transplanted them to buckets and made room for more from my closet. Here is two Kung Pao and one chocolate Bhut or reaper, I didn't label well. Tomorrow when I water I'll get some pictures of the rest of the plants in the Greenhouse Coldbox.
sboustani2023 first timer, growing habanero/jalapeno/cayenne
Hey I just wanted to log my progress, and find any help that I need lol. I'm not really an experienced grower, I have an apple tree I planted in my front lawn and I have put some grass seed on my lawn before.    4/12 Started germination of the (red,yellow, chocolate) Habanero, paper towel in zip lock bag method   4/21 Transferred to jiffy small pot when tails came out of the seeds   4/25 Started germination of Jalapeno/Cayenne/Pimiento, paper towel in zip lock bag method   4/29 Small sprouts came up, 1 Chocolate, 1 Red, and 3 Yellow   4/30 Transferred to jiffy small pot when tails came out Jalapeno/Cayenne/Pimiento   5/3 Chocolate Habanero has first set of true leaves coming out, the rest have just the starter leaves.       Growing...
Pickler's peppers
It's fun to watch these grow, and I'm learning as I go.  I tried container gardening last year and had a brown thumb...killed everything or it didn't fruit.  If you see anything that could use fixing, shout it out.  Some of the plants got too much water from a rain spell a few weeks back.  I'm trying to get them back to their healthy green color.  (For whatever reason, they look more yellow in the top photo than in person.  For instance, the Scorpion in the front left is the same plant as in photo #2).  Watering has been the crux; it gets REALLY hot here, so without watering daily/every day they fry, but it's easy to overdo it it seems.   With all that, here they are.   (2) Carolina Reapers (Pic #3) (2) Bhut Jolokia (front, middle and...

Had some dirt left over from a job, so I added it to the garden . Trying to gain more planting space, without increasing the footprint of the garden. Decided on removing the stone border and adding dirt all around to the fence. Figured this will allow for at least 6-8 more plants. Grow list: Pending
I first found out about the Zapotec Jalapeno through Gary Montcalm aka windchicken . I thought it only fitting that Beth Boyd be remembered in a memorial grow. The story & history behind this Jalapeno is simply amazing! I ordered mine form Jim Duffy & they are on there way now. Description form Jim Duffy Site . Zapotec Jalapeno-(Capsicum annuum)-The Zapotec Jalapeno is an Old World Jalapeno from Oaxaca, Mexico. It was one of the many older peppers that date back to the time of the Aztecs. But why you are seeing it now is because it has a story. I obtained mine from Louisiana grower and friend Gary Montcalm. But Gary found out about this pepper from Beth Boyd. So I, Jim Duffy have decided that this informational post about the Zapotec...
Slug's 2017 Ghetto Grow Log.
Just wanted to post some pics and thank some people for helping me get back on my feet in the growing sense after a really bad year.  Someone mistakenly threw out almost my entire seed stock as they were trying to help around my place when I was in hospital last year.  RalphTheChilihead and kentishman did me a solid by sending several varieties my way even though I didn't have much left to trade with them.  Thanks to those two guys and a local friend, I've got a proper grow going this year in spite of everything.  AJ Drew and Wicked Mike supplemented my grocery store habs with proper superhots for a great price, which cheered me up considerably in the meantime.  Really appreciate you guys.  :)   Here's my grow tent.  It's where I start...

WindowBoxGardner First Glog 2017
First time writing a Glog AND planting in a raised garden bed because I just purchased my home in April of this yr and it came with the raised bed! Whaaat?!?! Hell yeah!! Usually Im planting in large pots or there was a space for about 4 plants to grow in the ground. The growing space I had before I moved, was very very small. I think the garage was bigger than the backyard! I knew after I moved into my new home, I would have a chance to grow in this raised bed an be satisfied growin some peppers and tomatoes until I could turn half the backyard dirt over for next season. (Thinking bigger for next season already) All I did to this bed was add 5 bags of garden soil, turned it over, an planted as soon as I could The pepper...

Super Hots Canada - 2017
Hey folks,   So I've been pretty quiet over this last year compared to past years. Much of my personal life took a negative turn last year in April when, within the space of two weeks, my longest relationship came to a crashing halt and then my closest friend passed away.   Last summer I also launched the website for my business, but to date not a single has been placed through my website.. I attempted to promote it a bit on here and also through posts and ads on Facebook and posts on Twitter.. Looking at the database there has been the rare person here and there that has tried adding products to the cart, but that's about it.. I think the hard lesson here is that I first need to build some local trust and reputation in order to start...

Pubes, mutants, and ripening
Mini Rocoto doing great, but it seems to hate the heat. We get a cool day, it puts out 15 flowers, then the next day they drop.      One pod so far!     Habaneros look like they've got tails, might have ended up with something a little hotter than what I was looking for.      This guy looks like he's had some developmental issues.  :rofl:     Here's the other rocoto I'm growing, same problem as the first but seems to put out flowers every night and during the day they all drop. Hopefully later this year they'll do a little better when it begins to cool down!      Turns out what I thought was Bhut orange copenhagen is actually caramel bhut. Going to burn like hell nonetheless     I don't know what this is, but it looks tasty.        One...
This will be my first hot pepper grow in which I'm starting from seed.  I thought it would be fun to document my season in this glog.  Before I get started I want to give a big thanks to many of THP's members that have been helping me along the way.   I have been able to put together a rather large collection of over 100 different species of pepper seeds over the course of last year.  With careful thought and limited grow space I have narrowed it down to growing these plants this season.   Without further ado here is my list of peppers I have decided to grow this season. I will update my glog with plenty of photos to document my grow during each stage of the process.    Wish me luck; I'm sure I will need it.   Brainstrain (red)...

Wicked Mike's 2017: Enter the Dragon
Hey hey!   Working on getting an inventory of my plants and reorganizing things so I can find them. Current count for one-gallon and larger material is somewhere around nine hundred or so, not counting all the new stuff coming up in fours (not to mention all the nonpepper stuff).Updates to come as I get my feet under me.   In the meanwhile, it occurs to me that not everyone is on Facebook. In addition to last year's crosses, I'm working on a few new things:   7 Pot Burgundgum   7 Pot Leopard   Yaki White   Biquinho, Sweet Yellow   Jenna   Naga Rex   Murupi Roxa     Emperor Scorpion   Temple of Doom   And a few things I don't have pictures of at the moment.    
2017 Early Poddage
Never had peppers this early, so I'm pretty excited. Let me show you what Im working with.  Ton of Bhut Orange Copenhagen podding up. These are hot as hell, and quite frankly I don't know what to do with em. They're really delicious green though, almost a peach flavor.    Aji Jobito. Thanks for the seeds streamer! Looks like a nutsack to me  :rofl:   C. Praetermissum, growing like a damn weed. I've been watching catbirds eat the ones that start to change color. From what I've read, birds cannot taste capsaicin. Makes sense, however I always wonder what's going through the squirrels heads when they bite into a reaper  :fireball:   So this is a P. Dreadie, I have been having problems getting it to flower but it looks like it finally...
Gorizza's Excellent Adventure
I've been putting off doing this but now I want to show some pictures of insect damage but don't have the GLOG set up yet! so here's a crash course into what and where I'm growing this year. I hope to detail each location more thoroughly soon.   This year I saved some seed and plants from last year's grow, and also ordered a few varieties from puckerbutt's "Chris Phillips Collection." Briefly,   Moruga Yellow Apocalypse Red Bhut x Neyde - CP Special Orange from Puckerbutt's Chris Phillips collection Black Bhutlah F2, going to try to grow a few of these, I like experimenting with early generations Vietnamese Tear Jerker Lotabih Jolokia Maldivian Heart x Purple Bhut F3 Orange Tepin C7 from Smokin Ed Carolina Reaper X3R Red Knight Numex...
Here's what I plan on growing this year. The list will probably get longer, but this is what I'm starting with.   7 Pot Brain Strain Trinidad Scorpion TS Moruga Ghost pepper Carolina Reaper California Reaper 7 Pot Bubblegum  Scotch Bonnet Red Habanero  Peach Habanero  Fireball Habanero Peter Charleston Vegas Serrano 7 Pot Rennie Irish Shrub Golden Cayenne   I should have them all started by the end of the year. I'm excited to get another growing season started! I will post pics once everything has started to pop.

Hey guys! Today the first MOA popped it's head, so it's about time to start my glog.   Some background information: I started growing peppers in the Netherlands almost 3 years ago, and from the first year on I was completely hooked. I started out with some annuums, but was never really excited about the flavour of any of them. The second year I decided to grow some baccatums and chinenses too, but the weather gods didn't favour me and the season flopped completely. Then last summer I met a Portuguese woman, fell in love and moved to Portugal with her. The climate here got me even more excited to start growing then ever before, so when winter arrived I started preparing. I found semillas.de (before I always ordered from pepperseeds.eu)...
Pulpiteer 2017 Grow Log
It's kind of hard to believe, but I'm starting my 6th year of glogging on this site.  It's been a great place, even thought I've not had the time for it the last couple of years.  So, I thought I'd leave a link here to my past glogs, mostly for my own use if I want to reference back to them, they'll be in this one place.  Here they are:  2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016.     I've gotten off to a late start this year, but things are rolling a bit now.     Here's the grow list as of now:   A couple of things right off the bat: I've once again had trouble with germination this year. I know I have a few really old seeds, but I also have new seeds from good vendors or great folks on this site, and the problems are not in just one area, so I...
