So....confession time. The reason I overwatered everything the first two years? I FORGOT to drill drain holes in my wine barrel planters. So.....after my last dismal season, I decided I'd overhaul the soil (thinking that was my issue), and when I went to empty the dirt out of the four...

A weekly check-in on my PT F4 seedlings...... I'm in love with the color of this one!!! And, surprisingly, the one I posted last week that was green has now turned to purple (though it's a bit hard to tell from this crappy picture.....) My last two seedlings (which have been in dirt the...

G-log update day! :) Everything continues to grow well. No issues that I can see, other than these can be thirsty little buggers in their double cups! Ok, so here are the first to be sown and transplanted: .....and these were the next rounds to get moved out of the IDOO. I love the look of...

Good luck, Marc! Hopefully your transplant will do the trick any you'll have an overabundance due to the new ones you started! :) R

Interesting variability in color on two of my PT F4 starts...... one is very purple, the other just green.....thoughts on the variability? The purple one was germinated in a paper towel then transferred to the hydro unit, the green one was sowed directly into the hydro sponge. EDIT: FWIW...

Beautiful photos, PG!!

It's a jungle!!! :) I might need to do some transplanting, as there's a bit of a fight for space going in my IDOO unit! :) (pay no attention to the cacti.....those are for my wife for V-day.....much better than roses that die in a few days!) My oldest plants are still doing well after...

I've got three of four PT F4's that are up and looking healthy so far..... The one that remains to germinate is the one I planted directly into the IDOO unit. The other three I germinated with the paper towel method (one was transplanted to IDOO, the other two to a SOLO cup.) About 12 days to...

Awesome! I forgot to update here, but all of my Chinenses eventually popped. The average days to germination was 7, with the Habanero taking 8, and Paul's PT F4 ~12-14. 👍🏼

That one is F4, Paul.

Liftoff! :) Hoping at least a couple more get going shortly!

Quick update for the week, not too much new happening other than growth! No action on the Purple Thunder yet, but I'm sure they'll take off soon! I did notice some yellowing on the leaves of the BBG2 and Poblano2 (see below), and am wondering if I need to replace the water/nutrients in the...

Those look great, @PaulG, I'm 11 days in, and no activity on mine yet (IDOO and paper towel method.....). Soon, I hope! :) R

90g of coffee in 13 seconds! :)

Thanks, Paul! I thought so, too, but nice to have some confirmation (from afar) from a more experienced eye. :) Rich

At the risk of seeming like I'm stalking @dragonsfire today........ I, too, am a coffee addict, and cannot say enough about roasting my own. I used to have an iRoast II, but it died a few years back, and I stopped roasting for a bit. Recently picked it back up again, and am so mad at myself...

Yeah, we don't get a ton of clear nights here either, and being a Class 7 zone for LP really sucks. I need to get my gear up to Lake Tahoe sometime and hope for some clear skies! :)

@dragonsfire, some very cool shots in here over the life of this thread! I dabbled in some astrophotography for a bit, and need to get the gear back out again for some more data capture. Good time of the year to go galaxy hunting. I was never a master at the image manipulation, but got at...

Checking in with this week's update. Overall, things still seem to be going well, and I must have not messed anything up when I transplanted, as all of those plants appear to be thriving. The only peppers that I'm still waiting on to germinate are my Chocolate Habanero, and the Purple Thunder...

Had a bit of a break in work stuff late this afternoon, so got some seeds into a paper towel/zip lock set up (first time), and also my IDOO. Want to be sure to get something going here, and my neighbor will grow any strong/viable offspring that I can't manage. Getting seeds wet was a lot of...
