Thanks for checking out my garden. I'm heading out of town for a few days so I had to move the latest tray (some germination already) to the cold garage and dim the lights to preserve moisture. Once I get back I'll get things set up on automatic watering and brighter light. If I get the...

Had fast germination from a few of the first round so I moved the tray to a garage spot under lights after 3 or 4 days. The garage stays cold so not much else has come up but I see the hooks. Starting another tray in the bigger 42mm pellets (25 count) in a 1010. Seeded 4/11: Orange Manzano...

Keeping it simple for 2025. Last year I started in early to mid March and the faster growing plants got out of hand. First seeds went in today March 25th. We can get a surprise freeze through the end of June even though it's 85 today. These are my first 12 varieties but many more to come...

Looking good! What do you do when it's time to water?

I'm still a couple weeks away from starting my peppers for 2025. If anyone wants to trade let me know. I'll also plan to save more for a train next year and could send them ahead to the first in line.

Nice. One of my favorite condiments. It will be nice to make my own and go for different flavors. The jar I'm looking at now (deep brand) also has ginger and uses lime juice and corn oil. Thanks!

Orange Thai harvested after a killing freeze. Everything else was destroyed but all Orange Thai plants were harvestable. Makes great, hot powder. Here's the Yavapai Habanero grown out from seeds from a plant from a Yavapai College plant sale. Good all around habanero fresh or dried.

@jgundo, was there anything fresh/liquid in there that could have leaked or rotted? I've seen that cause packages to get stuck. Another theory is that they assigned the same number to two packages in Oregon and it's all screwed up in the computer. I've. had fedex lose a package like that.

Here's what White Thai looks like on the plant: Later in the season after some ripening:

Looking to swap some seeds this month. I have the pictured seeds to trade and would like get some of the new super hots and any high elevation C. baccatum or ??? I just purchased some 4x8 padded envelopes and would like to do a cross ship with a few collectors so I can diversify my 2025 garden.

Even $20 is crazy! USPS delivers drill bits free across the ocean. Makes no sense to me. Anyone look at what UPS would charge?

any other plants growing well in the same soil? did you keep any in containers? 10 gallon is pretty big and expensive if you are bringing in soil/mix. Might need to water twice a day. I would think if the ground or container soil is good and they get enough water they could survive through...

For gardeners in mainland USA I suggest 10 inch by 20 inch trays(1020 standard). You can have 36, 50, 72, 144+ cells that fit in that footprint as well as 4 packs, 6 packs, 18 pots/tray, 8 pots/tray, 2 pots/tray and probably many more options. You can also find 10x10 inch trays and jiffy/coir...

I've used an aquarium heater in a water tank. Do your own research but I'm estimating a 200W heater in 30 gallons could keep your tent above 50.

Aji Lemondrop or Aji Limon will grow in vines below the container. Not planted upside down but in a hanging basket. In my experience they grow well in cooler temperatures and wilt in hot/dry.

I grew the Butch-T Scorpion many years ago but need some fresh stock to grow in 2025. Thanks for including it in the train.

I've just started a compost pile that's more than half horse manure and bedding. No idea if their hay was sprayed so I won't use it everywhere and keep some peppers, beans, tomatoes separate. My gut feeling or maybe wishful thinking is that it's not as big a deal unless you get a very hot...

Hope there's still some Choco Primotalii when it passes through. Lots of good looking hot stuff there.

Those look great. How long do they take compared to a regular habanero?
