Start a Grow Log for your growing season.
Hello All, I have been lurking around these forums for a while and since I have started trying to grow peppers, I figured a Glog was in order. Before this attempt, I have grown Jalapenos, Habanaros and Scotch Bonnets all from seed with mixed results. After watching some of the videos done by FBI, I became curious about just how hot peppers can get......and after a little research, ordered a few seeds. Seeds I have and vender: Carolina Reaper, Puckerbutter 7 POD Brain Strain Red, Pepper Lover Trinidad Scorpion Moruga, Pepper Lover I took 5 random seeds from each package and I am trying to grow them. Growing Method to Date: The seeds were recieved in October and spent a bunch of time laying on the counter. December 22nd, put the...
Ok, here we go again, another year, time for more peppers. I have about 11 plants I stupidly started back in September because I have alot of self control issues when it comes to planting pepper seeds. Anyways, they are doing well but I need to get my grow table in the back room cleaned off, clean the 3 flouro lights and get them back where they can get bigger. I need their space for new recruits. This year's plan is to build the garden boxes up 6" higher along the back fence, adding some more composted material and plant almost everything in the ground. Seemed the ones in the pots last year didnt like the heat much and they needed watering more frequently, plus they are a pain to mow around. 7 Trinidad Scorpion Butch T's The Hydro...
The first two shots are before transplant. I decided to try Baker's suggestion and bought a bag of pine bark mulch and added 30 - 40% to the bottom of each transplant pot (not blended btw), except one to see if there was any difference. I also took my healthiest trinidad scorpion and put it in the biggest pot to see if I would get more growth out of it. I transplanted trinidad scorpions, chocolate bhut jolokia's and regular bhuts. You will notice some plants are well along, over three months, while some about a month and some just started. I want to see if I can get peppers from all of them and in what time frame. If we have a hot spring, and above average summer as far as heat I imagine they will produce early. I have been taking...
So i was gonna cont. my thread from last year but decided I better stay with the norm. I am not allowed to grow indoors( thanks to my better half) so I will not start anything new til late February and they will be germinated outside. Until then I have a nice amounts of plants I will be overwintering.They are as folllows. 2 Brain strain ( wayright ) 2 chocolate bhut's( wayright) 4 yellow cardi scorps( wayright) 2 red 7's (THSC) 2 yellow 7's ( judy) 2 hybrid bhut's(redwoodcityseeds) 1 red bhut(CPI) 1 7 pot barrackpore ( roper2008) 1 red savina 1 douglah hybrid(wayright) 1 chocolate habanero( lisa/ gardens 2 grow) 1 african tunisian(gardens 2 grow) 1 chiltepin( garden 2 grow) 1 donne sali( wayright) 1 datil(CPI) 1 dorsett naga(...
Well, I figured it was about time to start a grow log.With over 300 days of sun, Colorado offers a great, although challenging growing environment.This is where I'll be documenting all the good as well as the bad.Here is what I'll be growing this season.2012 Grow List: Pepper/container and size/ growing mediumEverything with exception of CCN plants(blue buckets) was grown from seed.Updated 9/24:Dorset Naga - 1 liter Airpot/PromixBx7 Pot Yellow Brain Strain - 1 liter Airpot/PromixBxTrinidad Scorpion Red - 1 liter Airpot/PromixBx7 Pot Barrackpore - 1.5gal Airpot/PromixBx7 Pot Yellow Brain Strain - 1.5gal Airpot/PromixBx7 Pot Red Brain Strain - 1.5gal Airpot/PromixBxSurprise Red Super Hot - 1.5gal Airpot/PromixBxYellow Bhut Jolokia -...
I haven't made it to the super hot level yet, so not sure how interesting you guys will find this, but I like having one place to post all of my pictures throughout the season, so here goes. 2012 Preliminary Grow List: Aji Yellow Alma Paprika Ancho Gigantia Ancho San Luis Barker (NuMex) Big Jim (NuMex) Black Hungarian Chile de Arbol Chile Hidalgo (don't actually have seeds for this one yet) Chilhaucle Rojo Chimayo Cosa Arrugada Costeno Amarillo Fish Fresno Georgia Flame Giant Szegedi Habanero Chocolate Habanero Peach Hawaiian Sweet Hot Inca Red Drop Jalapeno 'Biker Billy' (The only hybrid on the list) Jaloro Japone Jimmy Nardello Lemon Drop Melrose NuMex Espanola Improved NuMex Pinata (don't have seeds for...
Is it that time again already? Feels like yesterday I was picking final harvests, disonnecting drip lines out in the garden and digging up pepper plants for the winter. Where does the time go? Anyhow, I see people are already in full swing here on THP. What a lovely site. I'll be the first to admit, I'm running a little late this year, but I have an excuse I'm prepared to live with.... :P I needed a vacation! Well that, and a good friend of mine asked if I wanted to open up a restaurant in Thailand. Who says no to that? Not I. We had a great time. Its paradise, and very cheap. Above all, as a chili head, Thai food is a gift from God himself. I ate better and fresher food than you could ever get in the US, for pennies a...
Over the coming days I will be attempting to log my grow so far. It won't be as big and spectacular as most peoples here (in fact it isn't big or spectacular) but I am proud of what I have done so far with my very limited space and love my chilli's (I am sure) as much as the next person. I have had a few small problems so far but a Massive thank you has to go out for the help so far from people like Nova, Gas, JR, Micca, Wildfire in helping me get started on growing something other then long red cayennes or other common types and answering my many questions and the generous man JR with his huge contribution to my seed stocks. Like I said this will be an ongoing process to get this thread up to speed so bear with me while I populate...
Finally getting around to germinating my seeds to start growing some peppers. I took 14 varities out of the 42 in my seed library (Special thanks to everyone that helped out with seeds) and some of the old pill bottles I had saved (usually that's where I keep the screws I collect when I strip out an old computer system) then added 8 seeds to the bottles and filled with water. Going to let the seeds soak for 24 hours, then place on coffee filters and back into the bottles till its time to plant them. Here's a shot on the bottles: The 14 I picked are: 1. Peruvian White Hab......................Pic1 2. Jamaican Hot Chocolate...............Pic1 3. Douglah......................................Pic1 4...

Hi Everyone - I'm just getting started with growing hot peppers, and have a MegaGarden each in two rooms. For each room, I have: - MegaGarden, with a water pump set to run 15 minutes every 6 hours (4 times per day) - A General Hydroponics Fluorowing 125W CFL, which is on 12 hours per day - Feeding using General Hydroponics FloraNova. The seedlings are a mixture of Tasmanian Habanero, Serrano and Ghost. The A room seem to be growing pretty well, but the I have yellowing leaves, leaves that curl inward, and the bottom leaves are falling off: A room - pH 6.5, Nutes 367 PPM B room - pH 6, Nutes 327 PPM [To follow] B room - pH 6, Nutes 327 PPM Does anyone know what might be wrong?
Howdy all, First post. Day one!! Germination commenced on July 27, 2012 at 19:00 UTC +1. The goal with this project is to grow peppers year round indoors. Probably do some herbs, onions, and tomatoes as well, if I have some beginners luck. I want to be eating fresh pico de gallo in January. So here's to the weekend and day 1. Cheers. I'll post some pictures over the weekend. Right now my better half is nagging that we should go for a swim. ** Oh I've got Cayenne, Jalapeno, Caribbean Red, Dutch Yellow, Habanero, Apache, Basil, Cilantro going.
Welcome everyone and thanks for dropping by to check out how things are going here at Baker's Peppers!

Looks like I'm getting a late start again this year...Should be setting seeds to sprout in the next few days....Anyway, here's the order I made from Beth this morning. It's not really my complete grow list, because I'm planting lots of saved seeds (from my 2011 Grow and from trades with my THP friends) for the first time this year. Also, I don't know that I will plant everything from this order, but I am excited about some of the new varieties: Absent from the above list but going in the ground this year: Trinidad Scorpion Congo Trinidad True Jamaican Scotch Bonnet Thai Chile (Garden Bird Seed variety) Nambe Pueblo Birgit's Locoto Several bird types from THP friends, including, but not limited to (because I can't remember them all...
so.... again this is my 1st year of planting peppers... i know i know some i bought at the store/arborateum/people but i also planted some frome seeds and have learned so much.... here are a couple of my mistakes my girls decided to help daddy and put a TON of water in these bhuts... what can i do to revive them??? started off strong now this.... why did it become weak like this???purchased some jamaican scotch bonnets from TRADEWINDS... and this is what i got so for from this packetno i didn't mislabel them or did i mix my seeds up...will the real jamaican please stand up...other pics can be found on herehttp://thehotpepper....started-a-blog/http://thehotpepper....ot-pepper-pics/
The stakes are higher (hotter) for me this year. My main grow starts in a couple of weeks, but I thought I'd test fire some of these C. Chinense varieties in baggies / coffee filters just to get a feel for germination rates. Baccatums and Annuums start later. My main grow will involve Hoffman's Seed Starter medium in 72-cell flats. This is a pretty big 'test,' and I'll grow 'em forward if they sprout, then compare with the dirt-born later. Thanks to those enablers who sent seeds and advice. I hope to let you know how they turn out. I thusly unleash heavenly hellish heat upon thyself. An unholy out-of-the-ground beginning: A high tech germination center:
So I got a chance to check on my plants after the long work weekend and found some cool stuff happening. I will keep updates, I'm pretty excited since this is my first indoor grow and first indoor harvest. Bhut. Been flowering for weeks but a few have opened! Orange Hab. 2 or 3 months old. Not a huge plant has about 4 flowers already. Pirura(spelling?) Only about 10" tall now and begining to load with flowers. One of my favorites as the go through color phases
I'm a relative newbie, and pepper growing in the Northwest can be a challenge. However, we have had a nice late summer and it looks like it may keep going for a while. In the past, I bring a few of the better plants into the garage in October and try to extend the ripening process. This year, I may buy a cheap tent style greenhouse for that purpose. I only have about 15 plants, so this is a small operation. I snapped these pictures today (September 16th). This is my first time trying superhots. A Ghost is on the left, and Trinidad Scorpion on the right. The Ghost is my weakest producer. The Scorpion is loaded but none are ripe. Here's a closer shot of my Scorpion. I hope you can see those green pods among the leaves! One...

This is my second year growing, first grow log. Sorry havn't talked to anyone lately, had few health issues + work issues. Having alot of issues with my feet atm, making it hard for me to do gardening. Have afew plants to uproot this year, most my plants are still going well outdoors. I should have some early starting bhuts, aji lemons, butch T's, this season(should say next season winter only started lol). Still have some pods growing too, lowest temps here are about 10c. Just started soaking my seeds starting with 8 varieties Fatilii Zimbabwe Birdseye (from chilliseedbank.com.au instead of random nursery this time) Rocoto red Tabasco Asian birdseye (cambodian variety off a friend) Bigjim Hungarian black Jalapeno
Start off w/ my habs that weren't far enough along to produce before Fall set-in so I decided to put them in this 2012 Grow Log Peach on the left, Chocolate in the middle, and Unknown on the right: Thats my "3 way daylight, natural color, 6500 K" fluorescent bulb box in the lower right corner.
Hey Everyone :) 2012 will be my first full year being a member of this great forum. So, I figured why not do a start to finish growlog for the first time. Instead of writing down a journal of germination times, flower times, ferts, soils, plant out dates, etc.. like I have in the past.. I'll be using my growlog instead. There will be extra information that I'm sure the seasoned pros won't need to read but I'm sure anyone new to this hobby will enjoy the extra info I'll be posting. I absolutely love checking up on other members growlogs, It's my daily newspaper! :lol: I figured as much entertainment you all have given me this year.. It's time to entertain back. Hope you all enjoy. One more thing.. Before we get started with the grow...
Currently cut down one of my carrot/jalapeno plants (not sure what it was never grew large enough :P) Potted it up in a bonzai pot, new sprouts are shooting out which is good, ill get some photos up soon :) Ill keep it posted here so if people are interested they can follow progress. thanks
Outside in my backyard are the remains of my 2011 season carcass sprawling all over the backyard. It is ugly! It needs to be reanimated and made ready for my 2012 season within 2 months. Inside of course the season has began all over again. I am very pleased to say that I am only germinating 36 variety's so far this year. That is down 75 from last year. Pending some trades arrival from Finland, (7 more), that will be all. I have managed to keep myself out of the marketplace where the seeds tend to flow like white water rapids.

Well was encouraged to start a grow log so here is goes. I started my first set of seeds a week before Halloween. I sewed about 25 of my own habanero plant seeds. Was hoping I would be able to get a few plants from them if anything at all. I started these while I was waiting for other seeds to be received. They germinated very quickly and very well. Out of the 25 I got 22 sprouts that are still alive. I have 2 that are a little puny due to helmet-head. Last weekend I started some more seeds in jiffy pots and had a few pop through over yesterday and today. So, tonight I transferred two of my habanero cups into their own personal cup and transferred the new seedlings to their own cups as well. I am currently using the windowsill in...

Hello everyone and welcome to my very own Glog. Got a later start than normal this year but I'll keep em under the lights 24/7 til end of May or early June, properly harden off and plant in 5 gallon buckets. All seeds came from Pepperjoes.com and pepperlover.com. Also one Burpee seed. Soaked seeds overnight on 3/27, and all went into coco pellets the next morning and placed into a propagator for germination. As soon as I had a sprout the dome came off for air circulation. Last Saturday, took all the sprouts I wanted mixed up 1 part perlite, 1 part vermiculite, and 3 parts Promix organic soil , took the netting off around the pellets and planted into the oh so famous solo cups, with holes drilled in the bottom of course. They have been...
