The pine chips like i use really make a difference I hope you have a great grow this year and im guessing by this time next year u may "Swear" by the pine chips!

haha yeah thanks! I planted a ton of extra seedlings, and did a count of them the other night and realized I had about 80 more than I planned space for, but I have tons of places around the house and stuff and I will start collecting buckets too haha, there are going to be more pepper plants than shurbs or bushs around the house.. and they will still look great!

Absolutely incredible.
I thought I had alot of plants lol..
Your plants are beautiful. Keep up the amazing work.

Those purple bhuts look awesome. I've seen a few variations of those and yours is definitely the nicest I've seen when it comes to how the pods look.
Might just have to buy me some

UPDATE!!!

Well guys n gals...i have been SLAMMED busy lately at the nursery (High demand for these peppers!) and it has forced me to slack off on my GLOG. Well, i have an UPDATE finally and its quite a change from my last one. Heres what 7,500 plants looks like!!! I cant fit them all in one picture unless i rent a heli!! So heres multiple shots taken TODAY! This is as of right now here at Baker's Peppers LLC Enjoy everyone.....

First, heres the drying chambers my Best Man built for me...GREAT carpenter!! Each one like this will do 30 lbs at a time with all drawers filled...

Also, to let u guys know..most everything is into these 10 gallon pots now...the big plants...

Now, on to the peppers...This section is what we call the "Mix" section...It has 1,000 plants IN THE GROUND and this is where all of our "Mix" pepper sales are harvested from..

This section is home to over 500 T Scorp Moruga in the 3 gallon pots, and theres over 1500 T Scorp Red and BS Yellow behind it in big pots... Like above, ALL on drip feed injection fertilization! We have over 5,000 plants on the drip system now and adding more everyday....

In this section we have over 2,500 plants...in rows by type...from BS Red to Bhut Jolokia Red to Scorpion to....u get the point... ALL on the drip.....

And in this section we have more big BS Red and Yellow, and some Butch T too

Just so you know, honestly i have about another 2,500 more plants i didnt get to take pics of...bottom line...theres TON's of pepper plants on the property!!

[irishmaverick]

Amazing operation you've got going there. The plants look great. Having ordered some live plants from you, I know you keep them in top notch shape. Nice job!

 

[scratchzilla]

Man, I've been waiting for an update, and what an update it was. Nice work.

 

[Sanarda]

Are there enough seeds in North America for you to do that

?

ahaahahaa!! I certainly was blown away. Those plants look amazing.. ok now back to catching up on the rest of the glog

 

[PepperJam]

Wow, just wow ...

 

[Sanarda]

I want to stick my head up my ass and yell "Why are u having trouble with 22 plants??? dummmyyyyyyyy!!!.... "

 

[7Pod]

Looks like pepper heaven

 

[Rhody]

It's a pepper apocalypse. I always knew you had it in you.

Ghosty...

 

[armac]

did you ever develop a commercial market for your peppers, these little forum auction are not going to consume your production......

 

[cmpman1974]

WOW! I see you had no small operation when you got here. You must have been planning this for a long time! No one has that volume/commitment without long-term planning. It looks awesome.
