G.I.P.'s 2017 "oh HAIL no" Glog

This is currently a placeholder for what i will attempt to piece together as a Glog for this year 
 
I took hardly any pics of my seedlings,  and when the weather was finally warm enough at night for my plants to go outside;  They got shredded by hail, nearly drown in rains for days straight, tore up by winds.
 
Long story shortened, my season has had a rough start and most of my plants don't look so good 
 
So, although my plants are not nearly as nice as many others who have Glogs i have been following.
I will attempt to keep a log of this years grow anyway
 
 
 
Pics to follow soon...

Awesome grow log, Gipper!  Very colorful and full of variety.  
 
I feel your pain about the weather.  Hail just about took out my
pubescens - fortunately nothing else was planted out yet. The
record-setting Spring rain and wild temp swings set the rest of
my grow back about 4-6 weeks; just started putting on decent
growth and setting pods a few weeks ago.
 
The Yaki Blue is a great looking plant.  It could pass for one of
Trippa's PDNxBonda Ma Jacques crosses.  How big are the pods?  
They are gnarlier than the PDN cross.
 
Keep on raising the bar, my friend!

Oh HAIL yes!

I've been in and out in vacation land, and come back to see a wonderful garden. To think a short while ago things were looking on the rough side. A fine example of your skills
 
Great variety for sure. The Yaki Blue is such a nasty looking beauty! Have you tried one yet? The flower pics are fantastic too!
 
Keep it going bud!

 Thanks Scott, and to think i'd almost given up on doing a Glog this years because my plants didn't look good, and i had such a rough start. Glad i decided to try to document this years grow anyway. Yeah that Yaki Blue is a very beautiful plant with some fantastic looking pods.
 This is my first year growing it, I have yet to try one, waiting on that first ripe pod

 Thanks Paul,  The Yaki Blue pods have some size to them, I'm not going to try to guess measurements, but i'll be sure to get measurements and pod weight when i try my first pod from that beautiful plant
 
 
 
here are a couple more pics (night pics)

first Peach Trini Scorp is finally looking ripe
 

JRGS x Bbg7 (no calyx)
 

and this  OrangeGumTiger MAMP plant is putting out pods that looks the closest to the previous generation so far
 
thanks for stopping by to check out the Garden

Woohoo! That Yaki has terrific color. And it's loaded. I'm also interested to find out how the Aribibi Gusano tastes. It's very prolific! I love Mojo's crosses...that last OrangeGum Tiger looks amazing. I grew Peach Wasp a coupe of years ago and loved it. I hope they ripen to peach for you. A nice, clean, flavor with sharp habanero-type heat. A+! Looking great!

 

[Guatemalan Insanity Pepper]

hello everyone
i have some new pods forming, and some more ripening
here's a little Update:
 

I love the way this Yaki blue looks, such a beautiful plant.  I hope the pods taste good too
 

Peach Wasp is starting to have a couple ripe pods 
 

Calabrese Mazzetti putting out much more pods this year than last year (maybe i started them later last year  )
 

Drying Serrano
 
these next two plants came from seeds that were saved from pods i grew last year of OrangeGumTiger MAMP but since it is not yet a stable cross there is still some variation...

this is the Red one that is notOrangeGumTigerMAMP
 

this one ripens to sort of a peach-orange notOrangeGumTigerMAMP
 
but these next plants look exactly like the plants last year and the pods are ripening to the correct color, with the shape looking the same as the pods they came from   

 

 

 

 

 

 

Primo pods are starting to get gnarly 
 

JRGS x Bbg7 (most of the pods have this elongated shape)

JRGS x Bbg7 just about ripe pod
 

Same exact plant as previous two pictures (JRGS x Bbg7) but look at all the different shapes on those pods 

 

Fruxim

Fruxim starting to ripen
 

Aji Omnicolor

[FreeportBum]

Looking good buddy! I really like the peach/orange pheno of the orangegum, cheers

 

[tctenten]

Great looking pods GIP. I am growing the Calabrese Mazzetti from the pods you sent last year. Looks just like your plant with the clusters of pods. Cannot wait to make some hot oil with them.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

Your garden is looking epic this year, GIP! That peach trini scorp is looking true to form. I'm always enjoy seeing pics of bees enjoying that tasty Pubescens pollen!

 

[calchilihead]

There better be a SFRB with my name on it brotato chip

 

[OCD Chilehead]

Looking good. Some nice production going on. Glad you got aboard the glog train.

Scotchbrain. Yum!

 

[hogleg]

BTW:
 
You're gonna wanna be very careful when you got bee's in your pubes, you don't wanna make any sudden movements. 

 

[Wiriwiri]

You're certainly keeping those bees busy Andrew,nice bounce back from nasty weather you had...con't success.

 

[Devv]

Very impressed!
 
Killer pods everywhere

 

[moruga welder]

All is looking SWEET from my view !  Great to see ,   

 

[Bhuter]

Very nice! Amazingly colorful. That fat pod on the JRGS x BBG7 is my favorite of those phenos. Beefy and gnarly. Looking great!

 

[BSH]

Pods everywhere!  Very nice grow

 

[Superhot Sim]

Some great looking pods and some gnarly ones love the look of your scotch brains . Always nice to see ripe pods . Grow is looking stunning.
