I can help you out with some gnarly chocolate lava seed if you want.

Have you seen Butch T's new CPR (chocolate primo reaper)? Very gnarly reaper/primo look. Butch isn't sure which it is. I can send a few of these if you don't already have.

I must be one the odd men out. I don't care for the taste of chocolates. Too battery acid like for me. Closest i've liked so far was black Devils tongue

That sounds great Tony, I'll PM you L8R.

You are right in a way, but it just has to do more with individual tastes. Unlike many, I do not like fatalis.

I started going through my seed bank and WOW. So intimidating. And I know it is yet, dwarfed by other growers collections. Anyone know of an up and running DB program for peppers?
That would really come in handy and as much as I would like to, I dont have the background or the time to create one.

In any case, I thought I was simply going to go through my collection an just, pick em out. HA! HA! HA!

Should have started this in June.

Wow Cap, when you said only your personal preferences I was expecting maybe 20 types. Great to hear you've got at last a hundred tried and true to grow again. This is going to be fun to follow

I just use an Excel spread sheet.
Easy enough to just plug in your different peppers, origin, heat level, number grown, date planted, etc, etc.

That's what I use is a excel spreadsheet, I keep a copy on drop box so I can share it for trades and stuff. https://www.dropbox.com/s/453c2f3opk1aalo/Pepper%20Seed%20spreadsheet%20excel.xls?dl=0

Yeah, thats what I have been using. I was looking for more of a single point on entry and automatic coralation from there. Am thinking I will have to learn access..

I think that can be done within Excel and using multiple sheets. What kind of reporting are you looking for?

Yeah I know, And I did keep it fairly simple. I got my favorites going and added some I wanted to really give some scrutiny in an extreme way. I also wanted to try some that I have been hearing about but have not become available through the trains or out right advertising. I have a potential 4 way cross I am considering working on.

db entry screen that automatically enters data into the spreadsheet in its appropriate cells, without having to open the xls and scrolling down 500+ cells. And possibly if you are in the xls file and scrolling down for inventory purposes or whatever, clicking on a particular variety would open up the db screen for editing. which is why I am thinking access could be one answer.

Well, it has not been the great start I had hoped for. I planted on the 26th and when not much happened soon enough, I planted a second time. Still really slow. It may just be an issue with knowing how much moisture the rock wool holds and what is too much. Seems a little moist on the bottom. Will leave the dome of for a while. The only thing hooking on my bulk tray is xalapas.

t0mato · Jan 19, 2016

That's too bad because you have some awesome varieties on your list.

CAPCOM · Jan 19, 2016

Generally, I am impatient. This is a rare occasion that I am not.

t0mato · Jan 19, 2016

I find that if I just forget about my seeds and neglect to acknowledge their existence for a week or so they start hooking left and right.

I'm not sure just how effective that really is.

Genetikx · Jan 19, 2016

I sometimes get in the same situation, worried things aren't germinating. Then I try a new germ method and all the originals start to pop. Might want to try that out.

t0mato · Jan 19, 2016

BTW, what is the orchid ruby? It has a very intriguing name.

Its a selection off the train that I did not grow out last year. Other than that I am not certain.

Need to make an app for it.

Far too much time has past since I have been on here to update. Finally got some seeds to cooperate and not only germ, but grow and continue to do so. I am now looking at one of my best starts yet considering the late starts and all. I am grateful to Mike at grow big hydroponics for the supply of Guardian that eliminated the aphid outbreak that has been my biggest nemesis to pepper grow starts. I am also going to thank Scott at Oregons only for the sample pack of Nectar of the Gods nutrient line. My plants have never looked better and I just added bloom kaos and KRACKEN to the feeding.

Pics to follow

The pic does them no justice.
These are decidedly larger since I last posted. Will need to go to larger pots very soon #3s #5s and #7s.
