My original Brown Naglah has officially died, as of today. :(   I'm not sure why, but it's as though in the past month or so it just gave up. Fed and watered just the same as my Reaper (which is in the same size container), with plenty of light, the branches just continued to die & the leaves...

Nice. SB7J seems to be a popular one lately, wouldn't mind having that. :)   (p.s. welcome back!)

:welcome: from Nova Scotia :)

A crappy video of my grow room as it is right now: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKYtstJ4OQ8" rel='nofollow external' class="su_links">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKYtstJ4OQ8</a>

I intend to get new photos of each of the seedlings again, soon, but for now here's an unedited, and probably quite shaky, video of my grow room. Yes, I rather suck at these, but oh well.  

  I've never tried using the paper towel method. I've always planted straight in soil. The idea that I might hurt the baby root scares me. lol

  In the past I have, but this lot I didn't. If these Tepin don't take, I'll probably give that a shot. I've tried that in the past with warm water and a bit of some hydrogen peroxide and it seemed to help a bit with some of the seeds. :)

  ^ auto-correct was being polite for once lol   The first couple Wild Tepin seeds I planted were on November 11th and by December 12th they didn't take. The latest couple were planted on December 13th, so there is still around a week before it's been another month.   All of these latest seeds...

  So far, the only ones I have seem to be having trouble to get to germinate are Wild Tepin and 7 Pot Brain Strain Yellow (both from PepperLover). I'm not worried about the Brain Strain, but I'm wishing the Tepin would sprout lol

  Thanks! And yes, hopefully so... I have plenty varieties from Pepper Joe, but as I'm sure you can tell I'm leaning towards planting seeds I've gotten from much more reliable vendors. :)

  Well, as far as I know the soil mix itself has plenty of what they need already - so slow/long-term absorption is what I have in mind there. I've tried mixing the Bone/Blood Meal in with the soil when planting the seeds before, but I think that proved to be a bit hard on the seedlings. I can...

  They're planted in Sunshine Mix No. 4 (http://sunshineadvanced.com/) and topped with a small handful of Bone & Blood Meal mix, as well as a sprinkle of Super-Phosphate (0-52-0), a sprinkle of Calcium Sulfate, and a handful each of Granular Seaweed. I've watered them once or twice (over the...

Small update on (most) of my new seedlings: <a href="http://thehotpepper.com/topic/42283-super-hots-canada-grow-2014-2015-starts-on-page-12/#entry1098131" rel='nofollow external' class="su_links">http://thehotpepper.com/topic/42283-super-hots-canada-grow-2014-2015-starts-on-page-12/#entry1098131</a>

I really gotta work on updating a bit more often, but I've been busy working on building my website (finally).   I'm slowly ridding my babies of the damn aphids.. I spray down all my seedlings that are in my grow room practically every night, as well as all the others that are in the grow room...

  That's one of my brother's cats.. He named him after a middle-eastern Scholar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Farabi   .. My brother has a Doctorate in Classical Studies (I believe).. He's even named his kids after Greek/Roman (and even Finnish) gods. lol

:welcome: from Nova Scotia!   As MeatHead said - nice list and looking good! .. And yup, in my opinion, the lights could probably be put closer and raised as they grow - might help reduce the chance of them stretching too much. :)

  Just a wee bit. I also have a couple pet rats and we have a whole lot of pigeons.. lol

Our tribe is bit big, most are rescues.. Our oldest, Buddy, simply "arrived" one day when he was a kitten by sauntering down our driveway one day, in the middle of the summer, around 16-17 years ago.   Four (Gremlin, Keji, Gaia and Alf) belong to my brother & his wife, though they've been...
