It has been a few years since I was last here and even longer since my last grow. Not sure who of the crew may still be on here, but after 5 years I am able to grow again. Hope to have many good conversations this season and many more to come!!

Well we are off to a healthy start. I had a few seeds that did not germ but that is to be expected. The rest are all doing well so far. Photos to come shortly.

Well, my seeds FINALLY got here. Not sure why it took so long. But tomorrow they will be going into the starters and see what comes of it. Here's to a great competition this year.

I used to have one of them and it worked great. My only complaint was that I could only start 6 plants at a time. If you are using it strictly to start seeds, see if they make a seed starting tray for that model. Good luck with the reapers. I've had great success with them in past years.

I was talking to a buddy of mine and he suggested fox farm nutes I believe it was. Any experience with them? Anywho, the peppers started are in the dirt. Waiting on a few from seed savers. Probably going to start buying a few in bulk for next year too.

A few little tails on some of my seeds, so they will be getting a proper burial within the next couple of days. Then it is off to build another stand like from season 1 if y'all remember that. We will see what happens. 2 side projects this year include jamaican oregano.... lol, and a...

I looked them up the day they arrived. They do seem like very gnarly pods for sure. I appreciate the responses. And I hope y'all have a great season as well. This is the semi-boring part... waiting for germination lol. All of my jamaican oregano has sprouted and is now in jiffy pots with half...

Started to late. Plants came to maturity later because I started them late. We also have had a water problem in the early season months, the ground is saturated and we have had a lot of standing water, so my plant out date has been pushed a few weeks before, but that could be partially why I had...

So, I am in zone 6b in NY. In past years, I started my seeds mid February and did not get high yields of ripe pods. This year I have already out a round in for germ. But will most likely take advantage of a setup I had a few years ago for organizing and keeping everything in solo cups. If I can...

Just trying to be as helpful as I can be and make sure everyone has a GREAT time competing this year. It's all about supporting each other right?

Neither have I. There's a few I haven't heard of but all were gifts a couple years ago, so I decided to use the last of my seed stock for this year. It's going to be fun. I can not wait. I'll be looking around for seeds to purchase to add to the grow or keep in my stockpile/rebuild my stock lol.

So here is what's in the germ bags now. Farmers market jalapeno Bhut Jalokia orange Copenhagen Orange turtcicle Early jalapeno Bolivian rainbow Bahamian beast Thai bird chilis BHP mystery pepper Jamaican oregano And the list will grow from here

GURU what's up, I'm def in this year. I'll be ordering my seeds tomorrow. Been a crap few years but this year will be a game changer. Keep it spicey y'all. Glad to be back :) Note for the noobs, make sure you do a nice hearty soak in kerosene, or even better, throw em in a pot with some white...

SO..... here we go again. After the past 3 years being almost duds, 2020 will be the year to turn it around. I apologize for the absence and I am going to make a great effort to be here more like back in 2016/17. To recap, I had a fantastic year a few years back when I used my ex-inlaws place...

Back in 2020 with a BANG

WELL... I wasnt able to do everything I hoped for this year, I had a decent grow, Went through a rough patch back in February. My sons mother and I split, So yet another wrench was thrown into my grow. My original start was a complete loss, I started a few other plants and had an okay yield. Our...

Grow looks awesome this year bub. Ill be trying again next year. Had a decent grow this year but nothing for the chili red for the competition. It was very very wet until mid may, So our plant out was very late this year. your crop looks awesome.
