I started my seeds in early February and continued starting seeds until April...just couldn't stop starting new varieties...again. I always take the cheap route and use plain old Miracle-Gro potting soil. It has always worked for me. I also start my seeds in paper towels then transfer them straight to 4 inch pots (I thought they were 3 inch, but they're 4). I use a 125w CFL for lighting and I usually grow around 30 plants. Here's the beginning.

I had crappy soil before this pic and some of these are bare-root transplants. But I did lose one...Chocolate Primo. It just looked funky after transplant.

Here they were just before plant out. Pic taken on May 4...with the addition of a few new seedlings and maters.

Peppers planted out May 10.

Then I ran into the bugs. The flippin' bugs. Judging by the damage, I'm guessing broad mites.

But I soaped then neemed a couple times and things are looking up. I'll have to get a pic of what that plant (Goatsweed) looks like now. This is the latest pic with the addition of the nursery veggies.

That'll probably do it for now. Thanks for stopping by!

Those pods look fantastic. Brainstrain, Primo and SB7J look textbook. Congrats! All the other pods look good as well.

7PC #1 looks great. Love that color. It has that Caramel look to it.
Again, congrats!

PS. I haven't tried the 7PotCinder you sent yet. Still building my nerves up. LOL! You'll be the first to know when I do.

Have a great weekend.

Thank you, Chuck! I must say, I'm pretty happy with the phenos I'm getting this year. Most of them seem to be spot on.
 
Pretty excited about this one today. I got my first taste of an Aji Jobito. To me, it has a clean Chinense flavor with just the tiniest bit of heat. I used a clean plate & knife, so there was no oil transfer. I was expecting zero heat, but there's a little there...very little. Barely detectable. I got so excited that I didn't snap a pic of the inside.

Cracking phenos on the Brainstrain and Brown Moruga, loving the caramel color on the 7 pot cinder #plant 1 , your producing some stellar pods Adam, great work mate.

Thank you, Sim! I pulled the seeds for the Brown Moruga from fresh pods I got from Judy at PepperLover a few years ago and I got the Brainstrain seeds from WM. Both have excellent, consistent phenos. I agree with you on the Caramel color. I love it, too!

You are having an excellent year Adam and Cinder 1 is a winner for sure. Awesome glog!
Thank you, Ryan! It started out badly and slowly (pest issues), but things started picking up lately. I'll probably have a huge (for me) harvest in the fall. The bumblebees are working overtime now.
 
An eclipse harvest.

Here are the pods from the 4 plants of 7 Pot Cinder (BBM x Madballz). The top pod is plant #1, below it is plant #2 (not fully ripe), the dark pods below that are plant # 3, and the bottom is plant #4.
