glog Tybos' 2025 Glog Attempt

Hello everyone. It's been a long minute since I've posted anything here. Life decided to throw a lot of health issues my way and while some have been resolved, there are some that never will be. I have been checking out the site without logging in most of the time and see some pepper people I knew are still on here. I'm gonna attempt a Glog and see how that goes. I have lots of seeds in the fridge that are getting pretty old so I thought I'd try to start a few. So far I've tried to sprout some wilds with out much luck. I do have a 2018 model of Galapagos Long from Canedog that popped rather quickly. Looks like it will be my glog pic.
I began with a soak in a H2O2/RO water mix for 24 hours then placed the seeds into Rapid Rooter plugs. I've had good luck in the past with these. With only 1 seed sprouting, I'm not so sure the plugs were the way to go. I've also had good luck with rock wool cubes in the past so I may give a few of those a try. Anyway, I'll post a pic of the Galapagos Long for starters. As for the rest of the glog, I'll probably stick with mild to medium peppers this season. Maybe 1 hot plant for powder. I like to gently sprinkle some as needed to perk up a bland meal!:party: Hope everyone has a great day!

I saw the Serbian Red Pepper sauce somewhere and found out its made with the Ajvarski peppers
Cool! I like ajvar, I ate it in Montenegro... another pepper to add to the 2026 list 🤪
Just found out that I can buy seeds of this variety locally from Vertiloom
Have you ordered from Vertiloom yet? Are the seeds true to type? They have 3 or 4 varieties that I would be interested in
 
Germination success. Some of the seeds are popping. These jiffy pucks are working pretty good. I bought them on a whim and didn't have a lot of hope that they would work out. Glad they proved me wrong.

These Jalapeño Early twins needed up potting and yes, I got them off center. That's 2 so far this season. Maybe I need glasses.

And the legend for the jiffy pucks is in this pic. This glog is starting out really wonky. I'll try to do better. I promise.

It's gonna be great and wtf that Galapagos looks so good already 😍

The Rhomboideum tho, what a tiny leaves, interesting.... :think:
I see that it has berries and they look so weirdly different. Uuu, curious. Thank you for that! 😇 excited to see more pics soon.
 
Seedlings are still coming along. Weather not so much.

The small container has some backups plus a couple Mozambique Piri and a couple Sri Lanka Red peppers. I got the Sri Lanka peppers from Juanito's Peppers and the Mozambique peppers from Chili Chump. Im not sure if either of them are still around.
 
Plants are looking good @Tybo. I agree about the weather. It's making it hard to do any garden prep. All we can do is wait I guess, lol.

The weather is crazy but that's normal for Virginia weather. Below freezing one day and mid 80's the next. It will be in the 90's before we know it.
