Thanks! So far so good!

Thanks, eh! No, those are not the final pots. The ones I really want to get a lot out of will go into 15 gallon pots (4 of them). Then most (around 20) into 10 gallon pots and the rest into 5 gallon buckets. I also have a bunch of 3 gallon pots if needed. These 4 plants below from last year...

Yeah, sometimes it just shows the U) and nothing after that. Not sure if I can change it or not.

Hey all! I finished potting up my keepers yesterday, I have 39 total. Here is my final list of keepers: 3x Aji Pineapple 2x Blue Christmas 1x Chocolate Bhut 3x CPR red grenade pheno F1 (should be F2 this year, but didn't save any seeds from last season due to me being lazy) 3x Purple Reaper...

Picked up some Cal-Mag on lunch today, going to start mixing this in with my feedings also.

Haha, yeah that's why I'm trying to do less plants this year, less work, but also more space inside the tent for better airflow.

Work in progress. All going into Pro-Mix HP this season for the 1 gal pots. I'll bump the nutes up to 5ml/gal (CNS17 Grow) with this watering now. Still need more airflow in the tent, going to order one more intake fan and cut some exhaust vents on top.

Haha, thanks man! Thanks, Paul! Potting them up now, making my goal to only keep about 40, my max for this tent in 1gal pots is 56. Good luck to you both also, hope your seasons are going well!

Coming along nicely. Going to pick my keepers tonight and pot them up to 1 gal pots. F1 Purple Reaper crosses, some are getting very purple, others are green still, I'll keep a few of each to see what they put out this year...

Thanks! Yeah, I love the Blue Christmas. I just use them for decoration on my deck in nice pots. They are not great tasting, very thin and full of seeds, but do have some heat.

Hey all, I've had life in the tent for a while now, but nothing too exciting yet. Started watering with 2.5ml/gal of CNS17 Grow this week. That's about 1/6th strength of what the bottle recommends (15ml/gal) for week two. I had to close my grow tent door to keep the cat out, so my temps...

Why wait?... You can start your seeds now even without the heat mat or light. It won't hurt them and will give you a headstart for when your heat mat does arrive. Normally the earliest you will see anything germinate is 5-7 days and some/most take 10+ days to a few weeks even with the heat mat...

So winter has been a bit crazy this year with snow. We get a lot of snow up here, but it's been an exceptional amount this year. We got another 8 inches or so last week and another 12 inches yesterday. Here's a pic of the garden currently, those stakes are 4ft tall from the grass...

Thanks! Last year I averaged just over 80% germination rate overall. Hoping for similar rates this year.

Thanks!

Pretty quiet in here this time of year! My collection of cacti and succulents are still alive and well in a basement window for the winter. How's everyone else's doing? Add anything new to your collection lately? Everything... Top shelf... Middle shelf... Bottom shelf...

Lol, thanks! I don't eat them all right away. I make salsa (60ish pints last season), hot sauce, freeze some and dehydrate the rest. It was a ton of work last year though and I definitely had some extra pods left over. I had kept about 120 plants I think and harvested 4 or 5 five gallon buckets...

Hey all! I'm back for another season! I'm about a month behind last year's schedule, but still plenty of time since I don't plant out til the first week of June. I think last year I started almost 500 or 600 seeds of around 50 varieties??? This year, I finally cut back, lol. Only did two...

Yep, that same night I posted that, we got a freeze and it killed everything I had outside. Lucky I brought those plants into the garage.

I picked the last bucket off mine ripe or not 2 days ago and dragged about 10 nice plants into the garage also. Got down to 32F here last night.
