The magic is underway, around 15 seeds sprouted. I dug around in a few of the cells and it appears that they are germinating as expected.

Well, that's just a little one compared to last year's grow. This year I can only hope to do better.

Well guys, I got pretty lazy and didn't plant until feb. 6th. I planted 144 cells, and 8 of most varieties, and 4 of some. I trimmed down to 24 varieties. Unfortunately, I just had to weed some out. Some peppers from the greenhouse. Added 2 more heaters so the temperature is more consistent...

Really nice list, interested in how peach congo does for you. Is this your first time growing it? I've never grown peach Congo before, but if it is anything like a white Naga the flavor profile should be pretty interesting.

Well, it's the new year, and it's time to get things going for 2016.   First up, last year's grow can be found here -> http://thehotpepper.com/topic/44060-slade122s-2014-greenhouse-glog/   I'm going to grow around the same number of plants as I did last year. Somewhere between 130-150.   I...

12 slots still remain. PM's have been sent to to the most recent requests.   It's time to get these seeds going!

Goats, get your goats here! Only 5 slots filled. 15 more left. Don't leave me stuck with more seeds than I need!

Well, I decided to call it quits for the outdoor portion of this season. With temps dipping down in to the 30's, and as cold as 32, the plants are pretty much at a dead halt. I decided to pick everything left, and cut my losses, and move what I wanted to save in to the greenhouse.   I picked...

A general update. As you can see, the moshi's are so loaded down, they are not even really visible in the pictures like they were before.     Chinese side     I made some wings the other night, they turned out pretty darn good.      A close up of the shishitos before I cooked them.     A...

No, we're not talking about the furry animal living in the Bahamas, we're talking about the pepper. As one of my favorite mid range peppers of the year, I thought I ought to share it with some people on THP. I figured it was my time to give back a little to the community, so without further ado...

  Thanks, when I look at that picture it kind of reminds me of the grocery store, but with even more selection.   My pepper storage is now nearly full of pickled peppers and about 6 different kinds of hot sauce. My freezer is loaded up with bags of peppers, some ground, some whole as well. It...

We've had quite a bit of rain here lately. The plants don't seem to mind. It's cooled down now quite a bit as well over the last 2 weeks.   Well, it was about time to pick some peppers again. Here is 7lbs 14oz.   Biggest haul to date, exceeding my second biggest by 2lbs.   All of the smaller...

Well, there is one factor that was left out of that - quality/freshness. No tomato I've had tasted quite as sweet as one grown myself. Maybe it's the work put in. My whole goal of next year is to increase pod quantity while reducing input costs, and hopefully improving quality simultaneously...

Thanks Runescape.   These are a mexican pod, the Guajillo.   They don't have thick flesh at all, mostly used dry. The odd thing is that they hold a massive amount of water for a pod to be dried, when you cut them open, water just kind of spills out everywhere. This is my only variety that does...

A little update, all of my plants are still loaded pretty heavy. should have plenty of time to finish most. Awesome results with drip irrigation, and it's so much less work.   Tobascos.   Moshi's that normally stand taller than I do have fallen over to less than my shoulder height. It's now a...

I made it back from my 2 week trip. Everything went well. Here is one of the places we went for a day and a half or so, rode bicycles around the lake, about 20ish miles.         Thanks for the tips. I use black tubing for the rest of my hydro systems. I wasn't sure if anything could grow in...

Looks like a ghost x brainstrain, and selected for a more ghost like shape, but with a wrinkly texture like the brain strain. I'm thinking I'll grow these next year too.   Anyone have an idea on the flavor? More floral like a 7-pod perhaps?

Wow. What you're doing is pretty amazing.   The variegated cross with purple pods looks like it would be fantastic for landscaping.   How is the flavor and heat on the Jalapeno x Shishito? Is the flavor somewhat muted, or still pretty strong?   The orange and red Chameon's are beautiful pods.  ...

Alright, so here is the completed project. There is just enough room to put 32 gallon brute trash cans below the injector, so that's probably what I'll go with for fertilizer concentrate storage. The white hose is for manual bucket fills for fertilizing anything that isn't hooked up to the...

I seem to have attracted loads of bees this year. They especially seem to love Basil flowers. Every day the majority of the pots look like the one below, where the holes in the bottom are just absolutely swarming with them. They are very welcome in my yard, nothing like free labor  :P   My...
