I'm not participating this year, I still have a huge stock of seeds I haven't grown yet, and life caught up to me so I've been extremely busy the past year. 

That is really pricey! 

I'm really glad it arrived in the end, I was beginning to sweat a bit here. Definitely didn't want to derail the train. Probably best to sit on the seeds just a little bit longer, the christmas madness should be over soon.   

I wasn't given tracking by the post office. There wasn't tracking on it last year either. Could it be that the Christmas post rush has started? 

Have they arrived yet? I feel like they should have. 

Busy week, I'll send them off tonight! 

Train just got here, but I'm off to a night shift at work, will need to take at least tomorrow to look through everything. 

If I'm lucky I'll get it tomorrow, that would be nice, I'd have the whole weekend to look through everything. 

Wow, I think the train is something like 2 months ahead this year. I think I got mine in January last year. This is all very exciting! 

  Yeah, I find most chinenses to be very slow growers. But even though the fruits were small, I'm pleased about the quantity.      Cheers!      I haven't gotten around to trying it yet actually. I need to get on that, I'll let you know!      I'm very pleased with my season this year, most plants...

The Rocoto Mini, somehow I expected these to mature quickly, but they took their sweet time. Trinidad Perfume, most pods are puny, but I did get a few medium sized ones with the correct shape. The (probably not) tabasco. Very pretty plant. I like the way the takanotsume looks. The (not)...

Good choice for next year! I'm quite fond of baccatums, I've grown both the cito and pineapple and both were really nice peppers. 

Sorry for the absence guys, I'll try to do an update best I can. I will need a bump later though. So, we had one frosty morning at the start of October, most plants actually survived it, I think two or three suffered quite a bit of damage. But since then we've not had temps below 2-3 degrees...

  Don't we all tell ourselves that every year, yet somehow there are always more plants? 

Only just caught up with your glog, seems like you're busy picking peppers! I'm glad your season is going well. And congrats on the show peppers, they really did look great.

  Yeah, I guess, last year it was aphids. I think I'm starting to get the population down, I'm not seeing as many of them anymore.      You do realise this isn't true... 

  This is what one of my plants produced this year. Doesn't look much like it should. Had a second plant that was huge, cut it down today as it hadn't set a single fruit.      Hmm, I agree, the golden cayenne did exceptionally well. Jalapeños do great too, I've got 5 plants of one called...

I love my two pumpkins.  Now, they're not very large, I'm growing two plants in a 50litre soil bag, so it's cramped. But I've got one fruit on each plant.    This is my Chirimen.   And my Winter Luxury.    And honorary mention goes to Angelle cherry tomatoes, man, they taste like candy. SOOOO...

  I find that annuums do well for me, early to produce, and reliable.    Did any of you guys pick up the Farmer's Market Jalapeño last year? Did it grow true? Mine are not looking quite like they should. 

  I'm making a ristra with them as well as well now =D   You know, that pepper fired up quite a large bean chili I made, I'd say 6 ish portions big. I haven't tried it on it's own though. I doubt it's a Farmer's Market Jal though, some of the pods look really off. I had a few spuds in there too...
