Glogs

frosty · Mar 18, 2012

Well I decided to do a glog half way through. At first I didn't think anyone could learn anything. I guess there is value in what not to do. I start seeds poking holes into styrofoam cups. I stuff promix into the cups and soak the promix then one layer of vermiculite spray with hydrogen peroxide place the seed on the vermiculite add a layer of vermiculite and spray again. I cover the top with ziploc snack bags and place on heating pads. I check periodically and spray with water or peroxide. I use this method because it is simple and requires very little maintenance. Once they sprout they go under grow lights. I do a mix of LED and CFL. I over winter most plants. Currently the over winters are in the ground or buckets and are: Cherry...

Proud Marine Dad · May 11, 2012

Just took this picture a while ago and thought I would start a glog here. The second one in on the right is a Thai Dragon and is the tallest. The one next to it is a Jalapeno that I saved seeds from because it was so hot I couldn't eat it and neither could the Mexican friends I work with. :lol:

IslandGrind · Feb 9, 2012

Hi Everybody!!! Here's a record of my first grow ever. I just started having an interest in horticulture when my girlfriend couldn't get donne sali (a hot pepper from the Marianas Islands) here stateside. So I've decided to grow them for her as well as some others. THE PEPPER LIST: Giant Bhut Jolokias, Peter Peppers, Mulato Isleno, Hot Cow Horn Peppers, and Donne Sali. (All from PepperJoe except for the Donne Sali) THE INDOOR GROW ROOM: 4.5 ft. x 3.5 ft. x 9 ft. (LxWxH dimensions). Covered floor and walls with 5.5 mil Black & White Poly up to 6 ft. high. No venitlation set up as of today, I just have a tower fan to circulate the hot air and I open a door to an outside room to bring in fresh air. Humidity is around 40%, I'm...

So, I figured I'd start a grow log now that I'm having some success despite my own stupidity :crazy: I planted the following this past Monday(only five days ago!!) Poblano Santa Fe grande Purple Jalapeno Hungarian Yellow Wax Pumpkin Hab White Hab Tabasco Butch T All from Pepperjoe.com When I got home tonight there were two of the White Habs, a Santa Fe Grande, and a Pumpkin Hab peeking up at me!

sosl0w · Mar 12, 2012

Hey all, frequent this site a lot for info but never posted. First year growing and figured I would start a log. Right now I have 2 reg hab plants and a Bhut that I was growing in soil over the winter. I've decided to step up my game and go full hydroponics. Seeds were started about 3 weeks ago with about half of them germinated. Here are some pics of the setup. Old Lighting:: California Light Works Solarstorm LED lighting. Not enough coverage with this light so I switched it up in favor of the new lighting. New Lighting: 4 Solar Flare Full Cycle LED systems from California Light Works. Hydroponics setup: This is my first attempt at hydroponics and i'm still learning the ins and outs. After doing a bunch of initial research this...

scratchzilla · Mar 8, 2012

Giving indoor a real try this year. Starting these in jiffy pucks, under a dome. After hooking, they're moved under the flouros until large enough for the hid. The nursery is a small fridge converted into a grow room, the hid setup is a 2x3x5 foot tent, 250 watt mh/hps. Cowhorn Bhut Jolokia All three sprouts are 36 hours old, roughly. There are 3 more bhuts and 4 red habs waiting to hook. Any advice you guys feel like throwing my way is more than welcome. After trolling the last month or two, I know the I'm in good hands.

jamesknouse · Jun 5, 2012

So I am pretty new to this all. Last year I grew about 100 total pepper plants in my backyard and it went well enough. Fatalli, Ghosts, NuMex Twilights, Orange Habs, and a few others. I sold them to friends and family as well as pickled lots and sold them to the co-workers which was a hit. This year about two weeks ago I was given about two acres to plant on. Not knowing if I will ever have this chance again I planted some peppers. Here is what I have so far. 150 Jalapeños, 75 Cayenne Peppers, 75 Thai Peppers, 150 Early Jalapeños, 213 Fresnos, and 213 Pablanos. All planted 6/1 I also have 40 Tabasco, 40 New Mex Eclipse/Sunrise/Sunset, 40 Passilla, 40 Piñata 10 Ghost, 12 White Habaneros, 2 Black Habanero, 20...

jessxcr · Jan 1, 2012

Well. Here we go again. Last year I had ordered seeds from Asias Garden off of eBay and they ended up being crosses at best. Oh well, you live and you learn. Thanks to all the people here who helped me get on my way last year. I learned pretty much everything from this site and people were very helpful. This year I got all my seeds but the Red Bhut from Hippy Seed Co. The Red Bhuts came from NMSU. I just started germinating today. I decided to scale it back a bit this year. I started about 20 seeds but will probably only keep 6 and give the rest to friends. Here is what I am growing: Red Bhut Chocolate Bhut Douglah Butch T

Stefan_W · Jun 5, 2012

This is my first attempt at posting a picture here. If this all works fine I will post more, and if it doesn't work all that well I will go back to the drawing board before trying again. Due to a relatively short growing season in Ottawa, I knew that my ghost peppers would be tough to grow to the point where they produce ripe peppers. I started the seeds in mid-February, and I had three of them germinate. Mental note to avoid using jiffy peat pucks for peppers next year. One of the peppers came up with all of his leaves stuck together in a huge knot. I patiently pulled the leaves apart with a toothpick, and he ended up being a bit smaller than the others but none the worse for wear. This photo was taken on May 3rd when I had the...

8Planets · May 6, 2012

Hello everybody - I am new to this forum, and so far my time on it has been exciting. Not long after signing off from my first visit on 05/03, my wife went into labor and hours later we were blessed with the birth of our first child - my daughter Pepper Ann. Why did we choose Pepper for her name? Well, there are several reasons: first, whether spice or vegtable, hot or sweet, fresh, smoked, or sauce - peppers make good food great and are amazing by themselves; second, I have always loved growing a wide variety of them, leading me to specialize in them as a market gardener (and tomatoes, but that would be a less-appealing name); third, we fell in love with the name Pepper after watching the movie Iron Man and had read Iron Man comics...

Wolfman0709 · May 28, 2012

Well, I decided to make my grow log even though it's a bit late in the season. I think that it might help me keep track of progress because I look at my plants every day, so comparison will be good. Here is one of my Butch T plants: Uploaded with ImageShack.us Here is a giant jalapeno plant, one of the tallest I have. Uploaded with ImageShack.us A habanero plant that is just over 8 inches tall and looking like a juggernaut. This happens to be a carribean red plant and some of it's bros are producing flowers. Uploaded with ImageShack.us And here is a wide shot of the garden. Uploaded with ImageShack.us I finally decided to put in mulch over the entire garden, leaving only the soil rings exposed. It creates a nice...

hello :) i thought id start a growlog! i like growing in the ground.. i grow various kinds of veggies depending what season it is. it might be more work to prepare the soil by hand but its well worth it. i grow in raised beds in most cases, but this year im also experimenting with a trench grow. i dug up a 6 feet x 2 feet and 3 feet deep trench that i filled up with compost, soil, potting soil and various other things including carbon from my smoker, ashes, chicken and rabbit manure and perlite.. this last trench is based lightly on the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_preta method used by precolumbian cultures oif the americas. chilis beeing one of their main crops, made me think it should be interesting to try to see if it makes...

I've been reading everyones grow log figured i should start my own. I have already started a few different kinds starting the others tomorrow. I soak my seeds over night in plain water then i plant them in 4in pots 4 kinds per pot 2 seeds each then I transplant them into there own 4in pot when they show second set of true leaves. For lighting i use a double four foot light fixture with 2 daylight bulbs 80 watts. at about 6in they get transplanted into a one gallon pot then they get put under two four foot light strips with three daylight bulbs and one grow bulb. they reside there till they go outside i know its a little low on lighting but its just to get a head start before they go outside once out side they go into 3 or 5 gall on pots...

Jay · Mar 21, 2012

I tend to lurk the Glog section, and decided that I like looking at pictures. So I'm putting up some of my own pictures (why not?) even if they are not very impressive. Anyways, here's the list scorpion moruga sunrise scorpion 7 pot barrackpore red scotch bonnet cayenne jalapeno Ill add more pictures soon. I'm moving over the next month (out of an apartment) and to a place with a backyard, so I'll have lots more space than I originally anticipated. Probably going to start some more soon, and will definitely be overwintering (live in Canada). some scotch bonnets cayennes I only used peat pots because I had them around, and haven't really had problems with them before.

keybrdkid · May 13, 2012

Greetings all. So I have received seeds from several THP members to date. And I didn't have pictures posted of some of your seeds sprouting, or a glog on THP, so I figured I would make one-and supply some. Also posted are some of my own plant photos. Enjoy! --- Some Spongey Seeds Some Dr. Cres Seeds Some Melium Seeds 7 Pod White Habanero Possibly a Yellow 7 Pod... need to let it grow a bit more. First Pepper "Harvest" of the season! Pre-harvest Cayenne Early Pre-storm photo of Trinidad Scorpion (plant is regrowing) Frog Pepper... wait, what?

So finally after a two year rest of growing to restore our new house i was able to build a Green house and set back up my hydroponic systems. And i am now a Chile Head. My friends at the Hydroponics Store got me hooked up with Some Ghost and Trinidad Scorpions seeds that they had from there harvest in the shop.. I have about 50 Seedlings started, i even have a Trinidad growing on my desk at work i would post a picture of that but they frown on taking pictures there. So as i figure the forums system out ill post some pics. Just been here a few days but have already picked up lots of great info on peppers.

ChrisHutch35 · May 9, 2012

Hi all, This is my first pepper grow ever. I started growing herbs at the beginning of this year, and I stumbled upon this wonderful site. I'm only growing a few varieties this year, so I hope everything comes out well. Fatali - 1 Scotch Bonnet - 2 Caribbean Red - 2 Red Mushroom - 2 Serrano - 2 Habanero - 2 Jalapeño - 2 NuMex Big Jim - 2 I germinated my seeds in late March, so I'm a little behind in the season, but the plants seem to be doing well and since I live in Las Vegas maybe I can get at least one extra month of warm weather.

It's my 3rd season with Chili peppers. Mostly I use them for myself but recently I've started selling hot spices for chiliheads in Poland.

Well, sometimes life gets in the way...

Anyhow, I managed to get a cheapie hydrofarm germination plastic bin and lid set up ordered on amazon a week an a half ago, picked a few seeds from the collection I got from the generous members on this board and spring into action as soon as my stuff arrived. Goat Weed Heritage Big Jim Brain Strain Butch T were the lucky contestants that made the cut for my first try at growing from seeds (have several years of chile gardening from the seedling stage on under my belt already though).

Here is the start my year of growing peppers. I have started all my chinense varieties and probably won't add any more to the mix as I will have to start some other varieties of not too hot peppers and don't want to run out lights or buy more.

This is my first try at peppers. Since I work offshore my wife takes care of them while I am gone. So most of the credit goes to her. These are a few of my first batch: There are T Scorps, Bonda Ma jaques, Serrano, White Hab's, Orange Hab's, Chocolate, Orange and Yellow Bhutts, Scotch Bonnet Reds, Hawaiian Sweet, Black Pearl, and Red Fatalli and Rooster Spur. More pics later, and all the seeds came from THP and larger plants from Don Lava.. Thanks to all!
