DeNNiZ's Aint going out like that GLOG '16

Why i'm doing this again.. im not sure...as priorities get more complicated... and time is valuable to us all.. we start to eliminate  other priorities.  
 
For those that dont know.. ive been dealing with one of my most troublesome pest.. and its called ERIOPHYID MITES... (go google it.. lol).  for 3 years it was a ghost.. and soon became known to me as PEPPER AIDS as it just kept killing all my plants (2 yrs ago i went from 200 plants to 12)  call it mother natures way of limiting me to the amount of plants.. after taking SOIL and PEST management classes, the were able to find out it wasn't soil borne but rather on the plant... but now knowing what it is.. i am almost sure it is something that i can just get rid of and last year really allowed me to do my best and cohabitate with it.  i was able to retain more than 1/2 of my plants most of the season.( even though the harvest was slow).  
 
anyways.. enough nonsense  . its always fun to say at the start that we will limit ourselves to a few varieties.. some have succeeded .. but when youre part of an awesome community.. its hard to do that....with guys sending you their special cultivars and some that they recommend.. its hard to just say NO...

 
 
 
so on with the SHOW...
 
this past year i got in a Pepper group Fantasy football and im glad to say i won.. here are just one of the prizes i won

not exactly figured it out.. just learning how to deal with them.. like regular mites.. they are there to stay.. just gotta hold them down...
 
"Volunteer Manzano" - Lol, you're doing something right if Manzanos just volunteer for you.
 
"Monastery Gardens" - Do you have a link for them?
 
What is the... pepper dispenser? in the Saison ale pic above?  And what sort of Apple device is that up above, displaying the Rhombodium pod?
 
Nice selection of Hatch seeds.  I have the Heritage 6-4 and Big Jim and a few others I plan to grow this year.  The smell of those things roasting is intoxicating.

 Hey there are a lot worse things we all could be doing. Growing things is pretty harmless :party:

I never me a NM variety I didn't like. I even like them fresh!
 
Glad to see you back on the forum, Denniz.  You have a full speed grow going all year long!
You are the king of the aerogarden for sure!  I think I'll put Grant Michael's Mystery Citrus in my
aerogarden just for fun even though I wasn't going to do any small pods this year
 
Do you have any rhomboidium seeds?  FreeportBum is looking for some, and I guess
I didn't save any last season, so I disappointed him.  I'm sure he'd like a PM if you do.
 
Kick those mites out of your yard this season, buddy.  I'm sure you have a good control
plan in place after your classes.
 
Good luck with your grow.  I see lots of crosses there.  Most I never hear of, but then I'm not a grower of super hots anymore.
 
I see you have Naranjilla.  Someone gave me some seeds, and told me the bee's go crazy over the flowers.  Have you grown it before?

hahaha the manzano grew out of no where in a pot with another.. funny thing is.. i havent even sown any manzano... really just confused as to where it came from .. my plants were far away from the point of growth... maybe i harvested a pod and it rotted in soil.. haha
 
monastery gardens.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/180-Huacatay-Seeds-Organic-Herb-Garden-Authentic-Peruvian-USA-Seller-Culinary-/281148977295
 
the pepper dispenser is a S&P grinder.. but i saw someone of FB post it.. and they put their powder in it.. great way to have better control of what goes in the meal
 
love my saisons.. and reds too. and thats what kids back in the days called mini ipods...lol..forgot the name
 
cant wait for the hatch chilis   never tasted roasted or fresh.. its more for my BOSS.. time to suck up.. lol

thanks...your quote is a true inspiration esp. with my bugs... im not the king.. thats more for guys like Christopher who has (6) or John Knoll has like (4)  
 
i have some hydro that i decided to just toss him some tangerine seeds.. one is growing now... and im planning on moving it to the aerogarden
 
im going to see if i can find the ones Chris or Nigel sent me.. i was gonna give him cuttings.. but i cannot allow anyone else to be infected with my bugs...  
 
as for the bugs i have a bit to fight them with... last year.. rather than spray.. i filled 5 gallon bucket and added water and mixed sulfur powder.. i then dipped the plants upside down for a couple minutes to ensure that the entire surface areas of the plants were treated...also sprayed the top soil...hopefully next year i can move into a new house and leave everything behind
