D3's 2018. This will be a good year.

2018 already, time sure does fly by 
 
Been a member on this forum a few years now (2013?). This has to be a record for me. I usually change hobbies by now. Maybe it's because we get a few months down time to relax and take a break from caring for plants. 
 
Here's the growlogs of the past
 
D3 2017 Keeping it mild
 
D3monic's Crossing Project/Community Grow
 
D3's 2016 Growlog
 
D3monic's 2015 Glog. Lots of pods
 
D3monic's 2014 Glog n Gardening bonanza
 
I'm getting things ready for this years grow. Looking at adding a new grow light for seedlings. I had some nice LED ones but they are starting to go out and my t5 fixture stopped working. Probably the ballast but who knows. 
 
I'm looking at ordering this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019J3UPUS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A18TGAB2SJ5GBJ&psc=1 I just need to make sure it will fit on my bakers shelf right. Should be plenty bright enough for plant starts. 
 
I haven't come up with a list of plants for this year yet. I know it's going to be mostly my crosses with maybe a few I plan on crossing and some for hotsauce. 

 

[D3monic]

The dark foliage bbg7
 

 
The bonnets, several papa dreadie, nebru 7, foodarama, papa joes ect. 
 

 
This papa dreadie has different foliage than the others. Might be an accidental cross or seed got mixed up. 
 

 
The pots
 

 
Dark foliage trinidad giant congo
 

 
A couple the omni bonnets
 

 
Blue christmas and stunted blue christmas... I think. Either that or hot rod serrano x maui purple. Really like the coloration of  the smaller plugs though. 
 

 
Dark foliage Reaper" 
 

 
El Scorponero f2 getting some pods

[Genetikx]

Awesome! Always love seeing your yard. That el scorp is wonky and will definitely be weird when it ripens. That's science for ya!!

What's up with Omni bonnet?

I'd like to get some of those serrano seeds from you in the Fall if available

up to freeport bum it's his cross. Was asked not to share seeds though he probably wouldn't have a prob if it was you. I do like the look of this particular pheno so far. Dark foliage, purple flowers. Assuming pods will be purple again. 

 

[karoo]

good looking plants.
I really like those purple flowers.

 

[D3monic]

Package in the mail from boss... looks like a man down. Turned out to just be a bloodymary mix. Smelled really good. Cap broke in half no glass in the package. 
 

 
A friend my wife works with gave me 10 gallons of nute compost tea. Stinks to high heaven. Watered  the plants with it today. 
 
Check out this pod of El Scorponero F2, I planted a few to see if anything neat popped up. I'm liking this  so far
 

 

 
The purple BBG7
 

 

 

[D3monic]

Not a whole lot of pods going right now, hasn't been a stellar year for me I guess. 
 
F2 of the El Scorponero
 

 
Swiss Chocolate
 

 
Fatalii x brainstrain
 

 
Aji Pineapple x BOC
 

 
 
 
 

 

[Genetikx]

You're typically a little warmer than me but the weather here has not helped. I'm barely seeing sun in the 14 day forecast but also betting we'll both end up just fine

 

[D3monic]

yellow brainstrain
 

 

 
Peach naga x bbg7
 

 
 not orange thai
 

 

 
hot rod serrano x maui purple

couple little smallies I caught on a whopper plopper river fishing for a few mins

heyyyy you're not a reaper

The fatali x brainstrain is looking quite good. Glad to see you got that shaped pod.  That is what I was hoping for but not what mine is starting to produce.  The Naga Peach BBG7 looks quite nice as well.  Plants are quite far along, nicely done...    Pods will come.  Weather 30 miles east of you has not helped me out at all but I did not plant out as early as you did.  Time will tell.

Been a rough year all around, my potted plants are doing much better than those in raised beds. They are in need of some serious amendments

 

[chocolatescotchbonnet]

Sure looks like it will be a good for you indeed. Lot's of interesting crosses are going on over there.

 

[bpiela]

That white bhut long is cool.  Where did you source the seeds for that?
