2019 the year of the Scotch Bonnet

I have more than enough SB seeds now, way more than I have room to grow for, so I decided to create a poll to let you people help me in selecting the most interesting varieties! :)
 
I'm not going to start my grow just yet, that will have to wait for somewhere in February. That is, if I can wait that long! :D
 
I want to limit my grow to 10 varieties. I can stretch this to 12 if absolutely neccessary but I prefer not to.
 
So let me know what you think!

Got my first hook in less than a week time! :woohoo: it's a SB7J!
And I think there's one of the Black River Red's coming up also, although I can't see it very well yet... :dance:

Good deal, things moving rapidly. Just remember, pics or...................you know the drill.
 
Pics are mandatory, so here they are! :D
 
Yesterday still hooks, today they are already well developed plants!

Err no  :liar: , those above are the Mallorcan heirlooms (Tap De Cortí and Cirereta but which is which...?)
 
Below are the new seedlings, both grown from seeds I got from Trident... thanks! :)
 
The SB7J :

The Black River Red Scotch Bonnet :

For now these are the only ones that are showing any life so the impatience has to continue a bit longer...
 
I wonder if this could be a chinense considering the shape of the leaves... that would probably mean this must be the Cirereta as the Tap De Cortí is definitely an annuum...

This morning I found another SB7J together with a Papa Dreadie and a Scotch Brains!  :dance: Who said Papa Dreadie doesn't germinate easily? ;)
Funny actually, yesterday evening there was no sign of any of those seedlings and now they are suddenly there! Seems like they mostly grow during the night hours...  :think:
 
One of my mallorcan plants got damaged this morning while moving the plants under the large lighting fixture. A box fell on top of it and the stem broke right above one of the lowest true leaves. It'll probably recover just fine but I wouldn't really care if it did not. I want to focus on the SBs as much as possible :)
 
 
:pics: yeah, probably later today! ;)
 
I've got at least one hook for all my bonnets except for the stuffing scotch bonnet. But I'm more than happy with the result already! :)
I also have 2 hooks for the PDNxBMJ purple. No PDNxBMJ white yet though...
 
It's a bit hard to take pictures of the seedlings in my current setup. The cover is stuck between the lamp fixture and the propagator. I can only take it off sideways but that means risking to damage the small seedlings and that is of course something I want to avoid.
 
The glass bowl on the left back side contains tiny venus fly trap seedlings. Those are grown by my daughter :)

Great germinating, Marc, y'all rollin' now! Sorry to hear
about the Mallorcan. There will be a branch at every leaf
still on the stalk, so a nice, bushy plant to look forward to!

55% on the PdN x BMJ violet seed is good. You may get more...
Still pulling' for your white seed.

That was intended as innuendo. ;)
 
I'm only on my second season growing; you won't catch me jumping on someone's technique unless they've done something truly, painfully obvious (like leaving the bleach or chlorine out of their hydro nutes).
