Hey Paul, congrats to the new hooks! I have been following Jamie's lineage of Brain Strain 7 Pod for several years and now you have the real deal.  I'll post a early picture of the BrAiN sTrAiN 7 Pod in my garden from 2008 for you to compare pods shape with my first flush of pods of the mother...

When I received seed from Trinihottie(Sara) from Trinidad all varieties were labeled 7 Pod.  All the early adopter and growers of this variety go by the name of 7 Pod, even on the CARDI website it is labeled exactly as Seven Pod.  The catchy saying about being hot enough to heat 7 pots of stew...

Just had a visit with my Graphic Designer to pick up more stickers and ask about a t-shirt with the logo.  The vinyl BrAiN sTrAiN labels are a reorder so they look great and have been on my back window of my car, on a coffee mug, guitar case without fading.  They can be yours for a very limited...

Good to see you back and starting a glog this year Dan!  Sorry about the off season last year but that is just that more motivation to have a really good one this year!  Hope 2015 is your best ever in the pepper patch!

  The real reason all my plants go under the MH lamp and get "nuked" for 2 weeks after potting up is not what you see topside, it is for maximum root development.  The big bright light forces the plants to grow roots fast to be able to handle it's environment and higher transpiration rate. ...

Growing substantial number of Chocolate BS this year to find out how uniform the plants and pods are from Judy's box of CBS.  I am positive there will seeds of this variety available later this year when pods and harvest are given the thumbs up.  It won't be long... 

Thanks to everyone for following and commenting.  Like pepper growers everywhere I have already run out of grow space and am backed up moving my plants around.  Plants in my cell tray had a big growth spurt and need to be potted up and moved under my 400 watt metal halide bulb.  The plants under...

Rick, wanted to say Good Luck in 2015 but from your past glog it doesn't appear you rely on luck at all in your approach to growing peppers.  Here's to another successful year in 2015 and hurry up and get those seeds in some dirt already!

Last year I bought 2 plants of Better Boy Hybrid tomato from a nursery and after the first fruit set I pruned and clones all the cuttings, and then cloned the clones and so forth.  Cloning tomatoes has to be the easiest plant to clone and can have the plant back outside in 1 week after being...

Wow the picture down at the nursery is very tropical like your living on a tropical island in the south pacific.  I am sure that makes all those digging out of snowmageddon just sick looking at your plants sitting on those tables outside no less.  How are you labeling all those plants? Labeling...

  Valentine's day to Halloween that is like the end of one season and the beginning of another for you in Miami, maybe you can over summer the plant in the air conditioning of your house. :rofl:   Got my Large Orange Thai seeds in the mail today!

Very impressive Paul! I can tell this is going to be a fun grow log to compare growing practices with.  Your plants starts at just 20 days look amazing, and the greenhouse plants look like they are growing in the southern hemisphere not winter in the northwest USA.  Keep up the great gardening...

  Thanks for your question but this is a grow log, not a discussion of what you think about variants of 7 Pods.  Please us the search function and read old threads here on THP and you will find your answer.  Thank you.   http://thehotpepper.com/topic/6330-7-pod-skin-porn/?hl=%2Bskin+%2Bporn

  The Yellow Brain Strain 7 Pod was a collaboration between Judy and myself.  Both Judy and I were getting mutations of an ultra bumpy yellow 7 pod and selective breeding was used over several season to stabilize the desired trait.  Judy asked and I gave permission to use the name Yellow BS.   

My fake plants died because I did not pretend to water them

Lots and lots of distilled white vinegar.  I think Tabasco only ingredient are peppers, salt, and vinegar and they use vinegar 3:1 after fermenting the peppers for 3 year in a salt cave.  I like tequila with a shot of Grand Marnier in some fresh squeezed lime juice, salt on the rim please.
