   Thanks - it was meant to! This is not BeerBreath's glog. There are many like it, but this one is mine!

No, I've not grown the Aji Chinchi Amarillo before, I'm looking forward to it too. Looks a lot like the Aji Cito I grew last year, but it's supposed to be quite mild while the Aji Cito packs a punch. One more variety popped today: green fatalii. I decided to re-sow all of the varieties from...

I planted Big Jim (not heritage) on same day this thread was started.  Seedling came up yesterday.  Game on!

It's hard to say for sure. I know how quickly they would dry out with my setup, but I don't know how quickly they will dry out with yours. The idea is to not let them get completely dry, and to not keep them constantly wet either. After a while you will be able to tell by the weight if they...

Lots of action to report today. First, the Trinidad Congo White and the SB7J that I re-sowed have both come up. Second, a whole bunch of the round 2 varieties came up (six days after sowing): Aji Chinchi Amarillo Aji Fantasy Ampuis Dulce Sol Fatalii Black Purple Serrano Numex Big Jim (soon...

Look like they are ready for a little drink.

This glog needs more updates!

Thanks for the info LC, I'll try that on this one and see what happens: This one has been stuck like this for a week, I didn't bother trying to free it since I managed to free the other one which also had a stuck helmet...

Here are some others I've heard of: 7 pot Primo yellow 7 pot Primo orange 7 pot Savannah 7 pot Lava yellow 7 pot Wes 7 pot chocolate (same as Douglah) 7 pot Gigantic SR 7 Pot Congo SR Gigantic (same as above?) 7 pot caramel 7 Pot Douglah red 7 pot olive   Edit: take a look here, there are a few...

Day 15 update. I've only had one more variety come up since my last post (cheiro roxa), bringing the total to 15/24 varieties (would have been 18/24 if not for the helmet heads). Three of the varieties I'm not even expecting to see come up as I had no luck with the same seeds last year but...

Looking good!

Welcome and good luck!

[if I can get seeds in time...]

Great contest!     It is 33.75 cm (13.5 inches), according to this: http://www.chilepepperinstitute.org/content/files/HBJ.full.pdf    

Yeah, I kept wetting the helmets but they wouldn't come off. I lost another one today (gold Marconi), so I re-sowed it. I did successfully remove three other helmets though so it's not all bad. Another two varieties came up today: Mustard bhut Brown egg (peppernorth.com) Just received a...

I am watering from the bottom, but I also mist from the top for a while until the seedlings develop deeper roots. I had another variety pop today: Mako Akokosrade (peppernorth.com) But then I also lost two varieties trying to remove stuck helmets: Trinidad Congo White F2 SB7J I had no luck...

Another five varieties popped today: Gold Marconi (chocolatescotchbonnet) Datil Jamaican Hot Chocolate (AaronB) JigsawX (me) Trinidad Congo White F2

Three more popped today: Trinidad Congo Giant Yellow (jcw10tc) Bido Tacana (jcw10tc) SB7J (AaronB) Looks like I'm going to have a lot of helmet heads to deal with...
