DaSauce 2018

Just getting started. Have just a couple sprouted sofar and waited to see if the others come up before moving on
 
Trying these for sure from seeds
Miraflores Market rocoto (yellow?)...2 up out of the 8 sofar..TGCM seeds
Peruvian Red rocoto..TGCM seeds
Peruvian Red mini rocoto..TGCM seeds
P. Dreadie SB....cant wait to get these going. Probably grow more and cut back on other habs depending on germination rate...TGCM seeds
 
Aleppo...replacing my gochu with these just because i cant grow enough gochu for the massive amounts of powder needed for kimchi. I can buy the gochugaru but not good Aleppo powder locally......Ed's seeds
 
Sandia Select....Didnt get many pods last year but what i got were really large. Using the seeds from those pods....Original seeds from Midwestchilhead.
 
Changing up my Ajis a little to a couple varieties i never tried before.
Aji Limo Rojo...TGCM seeds
Aji Arnaucho...TGCM seeds
Aji Panca....CCN seedlings
 
A few "seasoning peppers". Seedlings from CCN....Probably:
Trinidad Perfume
Aji Dulce 1
 
Brazilian StarFish
Jamacian Gold (annuum)
Szechwan
 
Jalapenos:
Mucho Nacho...gunna try some from my seeds and another Bonnie seedling...REALLY loved this variety
Chichimeca...seeds from last years pods....REALLY loved this variety
Farmers Market....always wanted to try these for kicks...TGCM seeds
 
Still searching for:
Big Jim Heritage....Prefer seedlings
Biker Billy...Prefer seedlings...CCN is not offering them this year.
Hot bell..ANTEP ACI DOLMA

Seeds from Pepperlover arrived so now it just a matter of starting more seedlings and waiting on the CCN order.
 
Judy included a couple freebies and the malih helow sounds like i will probably try it too.

 

[Walchit]

I have two scotch bonnet x bell plants. Hopefully they turn out good and productive!

DaSauce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

This year it might turn out more like
 
DaPowda....because lots of the plants will work well for that and my ancient dehydrator still works great. I love sweet heat powders. MWCH also sent a couple supers/bonnets along as freebies. All browns which ive never grown before.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Title change?

 

[MikeUSMC]

I promise I'll quit dropping my pics in your thread, dude

Just wanted to say that the Trinidad Perfume plant I ordered from CCN in 2016 was probably the most prolific plant I've ever grown
 

Hopefully it does well for you too

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

I hope so. I really want a very mild chinense for adding to curry and things like black beans soup.

 

[Genetikx]

Damn Mike, more pods than leaves

Got a good list of plants here, Sauce

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

Aji Arnaucho...TGCM seeds. 6 for 6 germinated in just 5 days at room temp in a paper wet towel.
 
1 of the 2 Miraflores Market Rocotos didnt make it. The other one is doing fine though. It just lost its "helmet" and grew 2 more leaves.

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

These MWCH MOA Reds are easy to germinate. 100% success. I was only hoping for one but now i will try to save all 3.

 
I should have at least 5-6 P. Dreadies from TGCM popping up soon now too.

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

6 for 6 germinated and now 5 Aji Arnaucho have popped up

 
BTW Mennards has this on sale for under $6/1cuft bag. Normally about $6.50 a bag. Its what im using for seedlings this year. Im using 1/3 strength CNS17 Grow 3-1-2 for feeding.
 
Looks like pretty good stuff.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

Looking good, man!

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

Well most of the Mini Rocotos germinated. I got 5 of the 6 in jiffy pots now. I really prefer the paper towel method to germinate then move them to a small starter pots. It took about 2 weeks.
 
I need to try a couple more Miraflores rocotos in a paper towel now. I would like to have 1-2 more of those.
 
6 for 6 on the P Dreadies. All of them are coming up in the starter pots. Went to Costco and bought a 250 pack of Solo type cups for about $9.
 
I do trades with a local guy who sells local honey. So any extras will probably have a good home too. Im keeping at least 4 the P. Dreadies though and maybe all of them. Ive already got a spot picked out for them that is a good distance away from any other peppers.

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

A couple of the Mini Red Rocotos just popped through

 
Miraflores Market Rocoto in the back

 
MOA Reds and another Mini Red in the rear...almost forgot about that one.

 
Aji Arnaucho seems to be a odd looking pepper sofar. Leaves are long and stems are really dark.

 
P. Dreadies...4 looking good but 2 are struggling.

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

Added another cheapo fixture and some 8000K T8s. My grow table is 4ft long and 2 fixtures left about 8" on the side uncovered which is about perfect fit for another fixture.

 
 
4 of the 5 Aleppos have begun to pop through. Germination rate at room temp was excellent on Eds seeds BTW.
 
Farmers Market, Mucho Nacho, Biker Billy (HUGE thanks to MWCH on that one) and Chichimeca are getting started today or tomorrow. Just gunna try the small jiffy pot 2x4 trays for germination to save on space. I just need 2 of each to round out my jalapeno grow.
 
 

 

[Malarky]

hey just read through and you mentioned switching up your "Aji's".
i think many people connect "aji" to fruitier baccatum sp, but those you listed, Aji Limo, Arnaucho, and panca are all chinense. they are all great peppers, but they may not be the aji's you're expecting.
 
best of luck on a perfect dreadie pheno and the pubes as well!

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

Yes im aware of that.  I will most likely still have a lemon drop and cito plant going after i get the others setup

 

[Chewi]

man you got a good bunch of peppers going! How long till CCN arrives? Good choices there too. I forgot the Starfish again this year. Love that one!
Happy 2018!!

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

I requested a month earlier ship date than last year from CCN. (ship wk 4/9/2018). I think im gunna go ahead and get the mini greenhouse from Menards just for hardening off and getting plants outside a tiny bit earlier. Im almost out of room inside now. AGAIN

 
5 Aleppo in solo cups (DONE)
 
Potting mix is soaking in the jiffy strip trays atm for the jalapenos. Got it in the domed tray under the lights and on the matt just to warm it up a bit. I sure hope the Chichi grow true since its a hybrid, Trying mucho nacho from seeds i got from my Bonnie plants but those plants i can easily get. Not sure if i can find another chichi from the same guy as last year.
