Glogs

This is a dedicated grow log for Tristen's awesome cross, which I have been growing out since 2014.  I'll start with a bit of history and some photos documenting what's happened so far.   In January of 2014, Tristen (Trippa) sent me a little care package of seeds. In the package were two generations of a cross he had made, which he just  called 'Mystery Cross, F1' and 'Mystery Cross, F2'.     Here's Trippa's Mystery Cross seedlings in February of 2014:     Both generations showing the purple foliage characteristic since the beginning.   Up close look at Trippa's Mystery Crosses, F1 and F2.  Both culled to a single plant after the photo taken, so I only had one plant of each generation:

After a couple nudging pm's it is time to get things rolling...well, get a list situated atleast. I won't be starting my seeds until March 1 this season. This list is subject to change, and I'm betting it will before I'm done typing. My two goals this season are 1.) Take less pics and better quality 2.)Sow later and achieve similar yields. My germination techniques and set up are not inspirational or extravagant so the bulk of my updates will be after early june plant out. Fert apllication and medium are changing a tiny bit but staying simple with it. c.annuum Big Jim Elefant Giant Aconcagua Goat's Weed Jimmy Nardello Mucho Nacho Purple Pequin c.baccatum Aji Cristal Birgit's Locoto (growdown) Yellow Bouquet c.frutescens Boonie...

Well, shoot. I don't know that I should start a new glog with as poor as I was about updating my last one, but here it goes. My offseason season started late, with most of my plants being probably four to six weeks old now. I'll start by posting a few of the newer ones. This guy is an Oxkutzcab/Oxkutzcabian Orange Habanero. I have three of these growing and a couple Caribbean Red Habanero that are smaller. The Oxkutzcab seem to be out-pacing the reds, but they've also been around a little longer. In this pic I particularly like the transition in the stem at the cotyledons. @HeatMiser sent me some of his wild texas tepin seeds - what, a couple years ago now? - and I've been trying to grow the variety to production ever since...

Hello guys and girls, as I told in the Welcome-Post I will let you know about my updates in my homegrowing-story ;) The content is primary translated from German to English. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK if something seems strange... My English is not that good... In the past I tried to document everything right and complete to last percent to achieve a 100%, but I now know that it takes too much time. Repeated: If you have any questions feel free to ask (Setup, Preferences, Sorts)

Like others, I debated on having a Glog this year, but figured “what the heck”. It's been fun in past years, so let's give it a go. Hopefully we'll end up posting pictures like this later in the Season! 🤞

Hey folks, this dedicated thread will be all about growing the 7 Pot Savannah in honor of the late Dustin Jain/Nagacanario. According to his brother Christopher, he was not only a true pepper enthusiast but also an avid fisherman! Photo courtesy of Christopher Jain The following is a copy-paste from the thread that started it all back in 2021 (by @Guitarman), a summary of the character and his pepper: "He got his nickname from two of the things he loved the most: growing peppers and Presa Canario breed dogs. Some of us talked about keeping his memory alive back this year by letting people know about his creations and grow them, but it never happened. Dustin was from Savannah, GA and almost 10 years ago started selecting pods from an...

In this picture are 2 Dwarf Chiltepin from seeds from Semillas that sprouted on February 15. One of them shows signs of starting to branch out. A very nice growth habit for this variety. One of them will turn into a bonchi.

I really enjoyed growing this pepper variety this 2023 season. A BEAUTIFUL 5 foot tall 4 foot wide dark foliaged plant that yielded approximately 35-40 amazing pods. It weathered a massive rabbit buffet (1 1/2” stub) and still produced nicely before the scheduled first frost. It was grown the in-ground and really stood out from the 204 varieties that I grew this season. It responded very well to the ‘dry-farmimg’ technique that I practice using with 75%-85% of my grows, too. I haven’t had the chance to eat one yet but, if tastes as good as it looks I’ll grow it every season. EXCELLENT BREEDING WORK, PaulG!!! Definitely, a home run!!! Thank You for you dedication bringing this variety to the light! Positive Vibrations… p.s. Anymore...

Well another year and weather not looking good, Will see what Happens. Red Scotch Bonnets Kung Pao Bulgarian Carrot Yellow Cayenne Habaneros have not show face yet.

My buddy asked me for seeds a couple weeks ago. I told him its to late in the season, but b sent him the seeds anyway. This will be his first time growing peppers and he is going with a small hydroponic kit he bought. Well, because he started this late, I thought what the hell. Sooo I ordered a new heat matt (should arrive today) and went out and bought some soil. Im using the same solo cup method that has worked so well before. Two cups, top cup has holes, water from the bottom up. I sowed (three seeds per cup) 1) REAPER 2) YELLOW NAGA REAPER 3) FATALI 4) TEPIN X LEMONDROP143[/ATTACH]

what up pepper peeps? your boy growyourown here with a bold proclamation: i challenged myself to try to grow all the five major pepper species for the first time; wish me luck! (and give me advice, i could use it) to begin, let's forget what i did last year. (just like i said last year) doing the big five became the goal because there are so many pepper types and flavours i have not experienced before, and that by working within those parameters for this year, i have a chance to grow and discover types of peppers which are mild enough that my wife may also enjoy. (she taps out at habanero heat, but said she'd try the 20-30k range, hoping she might step up to 50k) let's take a look at what we got going on: BACCATUM Aji Cito – 50k...

There have been several yearly PNW grow logs, the last in 2017, so @FGpepperguy and I thought it might be a good idea to start an on-going glog for the PNW. This is a community glog, so anyone is free to post here, whether in the PNW or not. Hopefully, this forum thread will provide for some information sharing particular to growing in our crazy, unpredictable weather. So, that being said, welcome all. Don't be strangers! "Yes, we can grow chili peppers in the Pacific NorthWest! Usually."

Well here we go again! After my friend @Alejandro took the last two plants off my hands (Jamaican red hab and sugar rush cream), I'm starting from scratch for the first time in a while. Very, very humble beginnings: One sprout and one hook! Granted... they're both basil. :) Still under the lid, waiting for hooks: Alma paprika Looking forward to having these again. I grew them quite a while ago and had good results; hopefully, having gotten a bit better with the hydroponics, this time will be even better. Chocolate habanero Another one I've grown before (not looking to do much new this time around, mostly bringing back the old favorites). I know annuum x chinense isn't the most reliable mix, but if I decide to revive the hybrid...

I know, I'm a bit late to enter the party 😬 I will be growing peppers during the dry season this year, which means more work (watering) but less pests (in theory). Fingers crossed 🤞

Under extreme pressure from my peers :lol: I am reluctantly starting my 2023 glog Haven't actually planted any seeds yet, but it won't be long before I succumb to the gentle scent of compost, the lure of germination and the excitement of seeing a sprout I am, however, cleaning all my plant tags if that's not commitment I don't know what is
