Bhuter's 2018 Glog

Hello everybody! I'm late again to the adventures of pepper growing. Seeds didn't hit the towel until March 6, so I have some still below, some hooks, and some little plants. Not too much to look at right now but how about a growlist.

And here's the whole lot. I don't have much room...just what I can fit under a card table.

Thanks, Ed & Al!

I guess I should mention what I use for medium. Well, I'm cheap and have never had a problem with Miracle-Gro...all around...soil, nutes, etc. Last year, I tried fish emulsion for the first half of the season. Aside from the fact that broad mites attacked and slowed me way down, the unaffected plants were small and not blooming very much. It could have been one or the other or both. But after neeming and switching to MG, they took off and I had a bumper crop. So, was it the mites? The fish? I don't know, but MG is easier. So I just stick with that. Germinated seeds go right into 3" or 3.5" (whichever they are) pots and stay there until plant out. That works better for me instead of transplanting.

Hi Adam, you're just "fashionably late" right? Good luck with your grow this year, I can see it'll be a hot one!

Absolutely, Rick. I'd like to show up and say, "Surprise! Mine are podding up." But I'm far from it. Scott got the "podding-up" jump on me by a landslide. Thank you for your well-wishes!

Thank you, GIP! I'm with you, there. The peach clavo x pink tiger is intriguing. But we're gonna have to wait a while because it's a newborn. Interesting story about that seed:

When it germinated, the root came out more like a blob than a point. I thought it was history, but I left it in there. Checking it later, I discovered that the root was actually coming out sideways.

Until the coty's came out first.

It was an ass hat instead of a helmet head. Lol

A little wiggle and the root was set free. The seedling was shaped like a V but I buried that root. The next day, the coty's were lifting off of the top of the soil. So, it's growing, but it'll be a while. Lol
