Three ripe ones is what they wanted. I asked if anybody wanted to try one. No takers. Probably a smart choice. ;)

Mine were the only Superhots. They didn't have a category for those. Mine was under "Peppers- other". I guess they must have liked them because they were unique or something. They sure stuck out from the rest.

So. Our county fair is in town and I decided to enter my Butch T's in just for the heck of it. I didn't figure I would win anything. I just thought it would be cool to display them with the rest of the produce. It was my first few ripe ones of the year and they were a little small as it is still...

Well... Not really liking how my plants are going now. Due to the temps being all over the board here a lot of the leaves got sunburned and I plucked off most of the really bad ones. My plants now look fairly spindly and not too full anymore. I do see a lot of new growth starting to develop...

Potted them up into their final homes yesterday. I think they had all they could take in the #1 containers. I'm a bit ahead of where I was last year with these.

Thanks Paul! I hope it warms up soon. We had such a nice early break in the weather but now it's been crap again.

Ok. Not sure how much longer these can stay in the #1 pots. I have been having a heck of a time hardening them off. It will be in the mid 60s for a couple days where I can get them outside for an hour or so. I have got them to be out for about 2 hours with no ill effects on them. The problem...

My lonely 3 Butch Ts and 1 7 Pod. Catching some rays outside today here in MN. I have started hardening off my plants about a week and a half ago but there have been some cooler days so they have been outside pretty sporadic. Yesterday and today they were out for an hour and I just sat out...

Wow. Explosive growth in the last 10 days since I potted up. And some buds. I had no buds forming last year before I put them out. These are way ahead of schedule from last year. I think I will leave them on this plant and then pinch the ones on another plant to see the difference it makes...

Nice axe! Mine is gone now. I had to thin out my collection a bit.

I have had the little ones under a desk lamp with a CFL in it. I just moved it for the pic. These ones were actually started in those containers so they haven't been potted up yet. I will give them some time to see what happens.

Potted up my Butch Ts last night. My prized plant so far this year. In their new home. The ones still in the smaller containers are 7 Pots. I don't know what is the deal with them but they sure are stragglers. I have half a mind to just chuck them but who knows, maybe they will kick it in...

Yeah, I had a fun time playing with my plants last year. My wife thinks they are stupid but oh well. I added 1/2 a scorpion to a pot of her chili she made last fall and she was pissed. She would take like 2 bites and have to blow her nose. Said I ruined her chili. I rather enjoyed it. And...

A little over 2 weeks since my last update. I ended up with 3 Butch Ts and 3 7 Pods. None of the other seeds sprouted. I really wanted some Yellow 7s and I was patient but I threw them away last night. I started the last batch on 1/13 and no go. I only put about 4 of each in cuz I was hoping at...

Ha! Thanks. I know it doesn't compare with what a lot of guys got going on here but I just wouldn't know what to do with that many plants. The few I am growing is just for fun. I think I had around 20 last year and I got sick of moving them around when severe storms came and whatnot since I am...

Time for a pic update. Butch T's are coming along nicely. Still waiting on the other stubborn seeds. I also have 3 7 Pods that have popped but nothing else yet.

Ok, so that dumb ass cat got to my first 2 that sprouted so I added some velcro to my rig so she can't get at them anymore. It's worked so far. I now have 3 Butch T's and 1 7 Pod that have popped. Just waiting on the rest still. Starting to show their first true leaves.

Wow. Impressive. Looks like you will be busy this year.

15 days later I have my first Butch T poking his head out. Also, here is a pic of my setup. It's kind of crude but I found this shiny insulated stuff at work. We got it in with some product that needed to be kept refrigerated so I figured I could use it somehow for my peppers. All I am...

Yep. I tried it last year with my habs and jalapenos. It worked great.
