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.
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...
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
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.

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...
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:

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...
It's time for my first grow log.

Chocolate Habanero
Aribibi Gusano
Trinidad Scorpion Butch T
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.
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

Planted today:
Primo - 2 x 2seeds per Jiffy - Junglerain
Brainstrain - 2 x 2seeds per Jiffy - Junglerain
Yellow 7 Pot - planted 2 seeds per Jiffy about a week ago - HPSC

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.
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.

Soil, Akamada, few stones, moss and voilaaa. :) After cutting roots chili was in a shock and lost half of leaves but now is ok. New small leaves are growing. 3 fruits are red...
Well, sometimes life gets in the way... Got child #2 on the way here (due in 2 weeks) so with all the crazyness of getting ready for that all of my best laid plans during the fall were out the door by christmas.
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.

Hello!
So.. i'm 25 year old guy from Finland and i love chilis very much!! I have been growing now for 3 years. It's still snow on the ground here and pretty cold, so my plants are still indoors. On sunny days i have took few plants to outside for a while. Here's my list and some photos for this season:

Couple pics from early weeks
Transplanted to 4 inches pots
Unknown seedlings
About half my peppers today
Other half of my peppers
And finally I just finished my Led panel...
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. Not much in the way of photos right now, just one of a few of the babies.
Strains of Chinense I have started.

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!

Finnaly got around to taking some pics so here goes.
And what i,ll be putting together this week for outside yayyy!!!!
http://i1154.photobucket.com/albums/p533/usercodenamereddwarf/IMG_0672.jpg Okay this one was the first tray of the season.
Planted 18 of each today in Jiffy pellets - 1 per pellet.
Soaked seeds in warm water first for 5-10mins (while Jiffy's hydrated). About 4 of the Yellow seeds sunk - the rest floated (for what it's worth).
Seeds provided by Jungle Rain (thanks Grant for the freebies as well).
Going to leave under the carport - out of direct sunlight - for the time being. Temp today is 37.
Let's see what happens...
Grow log of my greenhouse and garden. I hope people dont mind but not all will be peppers. but dont worry most will be:P
i mainly have 7 pot varieties this year. But a bunch of other plants. If anyone wants to know any specifics on some of the non pepper plants just ask:)
Will be updating regularly
Greenhouse. Got it for christmas. Really nice, 10 x 20.
Set up a small potting table in the corner since not allowed to use the sun room anymore
Needed two 1500watt? heaters to keep it above 60 throughout the winter. I think this winter im just going to fill it with greens
Maybe a few tropicals right next to the heater
Some pepper plants i tried to overwinter from late season last year. Did fine but i think i should of taken all...

This is Grow Log #2.
This time I thought I would try the Jiffy's as a seed growing medium.
I bought 20 x TSBT and 20 x Y7P from the hippy seed co (always good service - like all the seed people I have dealt with).
Step 1 - go and buy Jiffy's. This is where I made my first blue. See if you can spot where...
Step 2 - I thought I would give the flotation test a try as it worked nicely for me with some Habanero seeds that I took from a fresh pod last year. According to the theory (as I understand it) if the seed sinks, then it has a high probability of germination. If it floats - not so high. So, I put them all in a glass of water (TSBT in one glass and the Y7P in a separate glass) and swooshed them around with my finger and waited...
ok everyone first I want to say it's nice to be back.so lets get started.
starting from left to right are 2 rows of douglah's,2 rows of red scorps,2 rows of yellow scorps,2 rows of bhut's and the rest are various other superhots.so how do they look so far?ignore the jiffy pellets im just going to let them die lol i have enough already.
