I was wondering if you had started a glog yet ...   I feel your pain on the snow shoveling.  We've had a LOT of snow melt the past couple of weeks, but before that the sides of my driveway looked just like yours.  Shoveled so much snow that I dislocated my collar bone!   Nice grow list you've...

I didn't save seeds from those, but they are from the same packet I sowed last year, so who knows if they will grow true or not ...

My germination percentage overall is not great, but it seems to be an all or none kind of proposition.  Some varieties have no sprouts, and others every single seed popped.   Bishop's Crown  (100% germination)     Mexican Manzanos  -  These have done GREAT!  The Yellow ones, all but one had...

Soaked 6 seeds Thursday night, and they went in the dirt right on schedule.    

Congratulations on the sprouts!  The bonsai plants are beautiful, and the pictures of your Goat Weed plant made me realize that I don't have that one on the list this year.  Hmmm...   Also, a thought occurred to me while reading through your pepper powder blend tutorial.  I have always cut the...

Seeds arrived today!  Will soak them Thursday, and put them in the dirt on Friday.   Thanks!!!

Ooops, thanks for the head's up!  Guess I should have sown that one sooner.  Didn't realize it was a chinense.  Not sure what I thought it was, LOL!

Annuums were sown today!   2-8-14   6 Alma Paprika  (Harv.'13) 6 Ancho San Luis (Harv.'11) 6 Black Hungarian (Harv.'12) 9 Cascabella (Harv. '10) One pod's worth of Charapita seeds (Shane) 6 Cayenne Thick (Socal Chilehead) 7 Chilhuacle Amarillo (Harv.'12) 6 Chilhuacle Negro (Smokemaster) 6...

Glad to see I'm not the only short season grower thinking of starting up the annuums already!     Winter does seem to be dragging on endlessly this year, but I know the snow will stop falling before my babies are ready to go outside.

Well, some of us aren't really contenders.  More like the control group in a research study ...     :rofl:

Well I finally have something to report!    :dance:     ...  HOOKS!!!     3 Yellow Manzano hooks  (Sown 1-10-14) 1 Orange Manzano hook  (Sown 1-10-14) 2 Mexican Manzano hooks (Sown 1-10-14) 2 Pink Habanero hooks (Sown 1-10-14)   Those only took 28 days ... sheesh!   1 Aji Chinchi Amarillo with...

My entry in last years contest was a dismal failure, but maybe if I try it in a container in a more protected location, I'll have better luck this year.     What they heck, count me in, if you think the seeds would arrive before the 14th ...

Well, I haven't uncovered any Devil's Tongue seed in my stash, but I sowed some Scotch Bonnets, Fatalii, and Datils, so I think I got my bases covered.   :lol:

Okay, so I found some Fatalii seeds in my stash from GA growhead, and also some Datils.  After some discussion on the Hot Pepper Talk forum, I think I'll grow both.   Here's what went in the dirt today:   Chinense:   4 Fatalii  (from GA Growhead) 4 Burkina Scotch Bonnet (not sure of source) 4...

Wow, thank you everyone for the quick and informative responses!!!  I stuck a couple of Fatalii seeds in the dirt before I even checked back here, but after reading what everyone had to say about the Datil,  I think I will sow a couple of them as well.  I haven't actually checked my stash yet to...

Narrowing down this year's growlist.  I do mostly mild to medium peppers, so I only need one or two hot ones, and by hot I mean hotter than a habanero.  I like the flavor of yellows over reds, and last year the Fatalii I grew turned out to be a red one.  I haven't tried Datil or Devil's Tongue...

Thanks for the well wishes everyone!!!   Jeff, I sowed a lot of Manzanos because they seem to have a low germination rate, and are prone to helmet head.  I'm hoping to end up with at least 2 or 3 plants.  I know I should have started those a month or more ago, but it is hard for me to focus on...

Just getting started, and don't even have a full list put together yet.   Yesterday I planted the following:   Pubescens:   6  Yellow Manzano (from Smokemaster) 6  Orange Manzano (from Fanatic 79) 9  Mexican Manzano (from Smokemaster)  Not sure on the color, it may be a mix.   Chinense:   6...

Since I know I don't have enough time to visit all of my THP friends glogs today, thought I'd wish everyone a Merry Christmas, and best wishes in the New Year.   Without getting too personal, 2013 was a very tough year for me on many levels.  Not sure if I'll have as big a grow this coming...

Haven't been by in forever, but am amazed to see things still going at your place.  Your grass is actually green now, instead of brown, and mine has been white for over three weeks!   There's about 20 +  pages that I've missed, that I'll have to play catch-up on over the winter, but I just...
