Browning's first glog, 2014. Work in progress

Not really sure what all should be included in these and what not but here's my go at it.  I will get an actual list of everything growing already, and everything to addto a bit later.  For now, the plants I have going at the moment.  Some plants are a bit droopy because they are thirsty.  I like to let them droop a bit before giving them a drink.  The ones I have growing now were started out of boredom and to test some T8 lights.  Iam planning on chopping a few of these in half and trimming them up and keep them alive until they can go out mid April.
 
A lot of seeds that will make this grow possible came from folks here on THP.  I would like to thank Wayright, Romy6, Buckeye Pepper Company, Denniz, Jerrymart, Dale Baker, Rebelgrower3, Spicegeist, PepperLover, Pepper T Sherwood, Coheed196, and smileyguy697 for seeds.  To every one else, thanks for the incredible amount of information and knowledge I have received from this forum since joining.  I appreciate it.

My first 72 cell greenhouse full.  I planted 2 in each and a picture labelling each cell will follow.

Still need to fill up another which I will do within the next couple of days.  It will consist mostly of crosses. I have acquired some prety exciting crosses over the last couple of months.  Once I get my son setled down a bit I will come through with individual pictures of the already established pepper plants I have going.
 
I welcome any and all comments,tips, criticism, or anything else you might feel inclined to add.  This will be my first full on pepper grow.  I got a late start last year so I don't count it in.  I will also be including everything else I grow throughout the year so hopefully youdon't mind veggies and fruit being posted. 
 
Have a great night folks, and please let me know what you think.  :)

Very nice!  You're the only one growing some of those crosses... I'll be curious to see if you get them to ripen...
Thanks.  I have been experimenting with elmers to keep them from crossing.  Made a thread on it here too.
 
Quick question, how do I know when the [Pimenta da Neyde x Bhut F2] x Pimenta Morango is ripe?  :)

Good question... the P da N x Bhut turned red when it was ripe, so does the Pimenta Morango.. so I'd guess it'll turn red.  Unless it got the neyde genes which would keep the fruit dark all the way through... my guess it'll turn red when ripe...
 
That looks great by the way, nice job with it!
 
:dance:

Thanks a bunch. I was wondering because the first set pod hasn't grown any more and isn't as firm as it was a week or two ago.  However, still has the purple top, light belly.  Same pod in the pic at the top of this page

Do the pods grow almost upright?  Kind of looks like they do in these pics.
