Howdy!
Haven't been on the forum for ages, mostly due to a longer break from chili growing. After having to tear down the grow room for the second time due to insects (trips), I just needed som distance from the hobby. Yesterday, I felt the distance was right
The growing area was sprayed down heavily with anti-bug spray (pyrethrine++), the smallest pots were chlorinated, and I went through my seed collection to find some suitable species to grow this autumn. Out of about 25+ different choices, I ended up with the following:
Top four: Super Chile, Hot Lemon, Pimenta Da Neyde, Yellow Burkina
Bottom four: Ring of Fire, Fatalii, Bird's Eye Baby, Stipe (baccatum)
Each bag contains two seeds, and at some point in time I will cull away the weakest in each pair (given I get both to sprout). This will give me eight plants, which I think will fit more or less ok into the space available. Last time I had 15 plants or so, which was way too crowded. If I get the urge to grow other species from my seed collection, I rather start from scratch in a few months time, instead of adding more plants.
