Alex_K - 2021/2022

Hi! I'm Alex from Brazil!

Some old members might remember me... I make some seeds exchange here back in 2009.
Had about 40 pepper plants but after the end of the season they suffered from massive whiteflies attack and I lost mostly of them... frustrated I gave up on growing peppers plants but this year I decided to start again I bought seeds from TexasHotPepper, HRSeeds and MK hope this time to be successful.

Yeah my english is quite bad but I hope can understand each other!!!

For now my list is:

(C. chinense)

Puma
Habanada
Naga BBG7 Orange
Big Olive Mama
Big Mustard Mama (gift)
Jays X Purple
PDN X Bonda Ma Jacques (White)
BTR Scorpion
Jays Peach Ghost Scorpion
Bleeding Borg 9
Papa Joes Scotch Bonnet
KS Lemon Starrburst
Pimenta da Neyde
Butch T X 7 Pod Jonah Gold

(C. annuum)

Lesya
Thai Hot
Buena Mulata
Thunder Mountain Longhorn

(C. baccatum)

Looks like a Trippaul Threat White Lightening
Violet. Very cool.

Yes! This variety has very nice colors and being created by a member here on the forum make it really special!

I think it's time to close this thread and get ready for the next season!

About some varieties that were on my list and didn't show here:

-Puma
-Habanada
-Naga BBG7 Orange

These plants are healthy but there was no time to produce, I started the seedlings very late and winter arrived, it will be for the next season.


-BTR Scorpion
-Butch T X 7 Pod Jonah Gold

These two varieties had germination problems and the plants that I managed to germinate are quite weakened as they went through the winter in their growth phase, if they survive, they will be in the next season probably as bonsai!


-Murasaki Purple
-Lesya

Recovering from a massive mite attack

-Buena Mulata

This variety was the only one that didn't even germinate, 10 seeds none sprouted


In conclusion... I had few problems with pests some missteps in fertilization and some timing problem, small production as expected due to limited space but overall it was a good season.
As here in Brazil we don't have defined seasons like in North America or Europe, I started the "new season" seedlings in the middle of this season so I already have some varieties that are ready to produce just needing the weather to help.

I hope to start the new 2022/2023 season's Glog soon!

Good work this season, Alex! Can’t wait
to see your grow log next ‘season’ now
that you will be getting an earlier start to
the grow. Nice bunch of ferments/pickles!
