Looks tasty. Do you use about the same recipe every year? I'd never heard of lavameel. Sounds like good stuff. I'd like like to try that on a hanging tomato variety I've tilted with for years that comes from Mt Vesuvius. It has never performed properly for me. I've always suspected it needed...

Right there with you. Except I maybe more like 5 1/2 weeks if the weather is good. I guess I just pampered them with things like warmth, water, nutrients, and other frills. So I'm marking my 2023 Chinense calendar for sow on 3/9/23 That sounds ridiculously late. Maybe a little earlier...

Nice job bring those OW along so quickly. Awesome bloom set.

Hello and welcome. Getting those chinenses up and running is no small task, so congrats on your progress. To keep them happy I would suggest you pot them up into about a one quart pot with a better than average commerial potting soil especially if your garden soil has any clay content. A mix...

It's Annum Day. It's it not as if I don't have enough peppers to ride herd on, but I need some sweets. And few more hots too, mostly things I've grown before or clearly out an old seed lot. Couldn't find a free 32 cell liner so I had to resort to one of these little Amazon greenhouses. I've...

Looking nice, GYO. We have all worried too much at some point. Learning to worry just the right amount takes practice. On up-potting. Peppers that are that healthy are pretty resiliant. They could probably make it to 5/24 especially if you start feed them some weak liquid ferts in about a...

Beautiful grow you have going. That hellebore in the back is also a stunner.

Hey, DR. I hope your 2-4" snow creeps across the mountain and provides a blanket for me too. Sauturday night's 22F is a little low for comfort(but I knew the risks). I don't usually put much in the ground this early , but I've got transplants of beets, cabbage and radishes that have been out a...

And, @Harry_Dangler wins the Aji Race with a first and second place photo finish in just ove 6 days. j

@Downriver , don't remind me :D. Of those 36, my plan was to only keep about a dozen plus a couple for my gardening son. You do remind me that I should be contacting some folks locally that can adopt. I'll probably end up around 4 dozen to let go by the time annuals are done. I only sowed 2...

Beautiful, rich, deep green color on those babes.

Looks like I'm going without Fatalli and Charipitas this year due to bad seed. Its not like there are plenty of others to fill the ranks. I found a boat load of Ajis of interest on the B Train last week, and I'm going to drop seed on half a dozen or so baactums in a day or two. I just...

:welcome:

I use the warming mat to give the seed a little push, after they've mostly popped I move to a cooler shelf. but still lots of light. I also give them a haircut when they start to get floppy. They need a rich soil too. Before haircut. After;

The B Train has arrived ready for inspection.

Things moving right along. Seeding deck looks like a winner.

I think only planted 4, held back some seed in case of a mis-fire. I'm going 2 each of the JA and Carribs in-ground and maybe one each in bags to isolate. Thanks!

My pots arrived earlier than expected. :clap: Time to pot up peppers. But I'm out of soil.:clap: A few days ago I caught a thaw and scooped up some compost, but in order to get enough for a recipe, I still had to defrost some icebergs of peat in the germinator. I mixed a 2-cf batch, but it...

I've got 3 lots from my last year grow. One lot had a 5 point split on the cap and point so I thought I give that one a look. I have 12-15 just potted up, but I've only planned on space to 4. Maybe I'll try some container growing for a couple. j
