Genetikx 2018

First time doing a glog but have followed others for years now. I don't expect monster 5' plants being just north of Chicago but I do expect to have a good time in the dirt and to neglect pulling weeds a time or twelve. The goal is grow a ton of peppers for sauce and maybe even get into powders this year.

We're currently rocking a 4' 4 tube hydrofarm T5, which I think is an awesome fluorescent. In the past I've supplemented with regular shop lights in the seedling stage and for overflow but might get another proper T5 soon. First time growing in this new house so hopeful to avoid mites, aphids, and the like. I'll end up throwing some plants in the backyard and then also claim a spot at the community garden.

Best of luck to all the awesome grows here at THP. Hope everyone has a great 2018.

I'm at 72 plants potted up with a soon-to-be tray of 18 ready to go next weekend. You can see those along the side still in tiny cups. Good news, I'm done germinating.

Mine took longer than usual in paper towel this year. There's a certain balance of being moist but not too most... But I'd rather have too moist than too dry. I've basically switched to using tupperware and when I do, I like a little bit of water that can slosh around. I did notice my baggies had little to no air in them. In an attempt to try everything, I added some air to all the bags and they started poppin. May have just been time for them to pop anyway idk. Thanks for stopping by and good luck!

I couldn't get these to germinate at all
EOB Mustard - only had one seed
Flexosoum

I don't keep track of germ rates because if I have 20 seeds and only need 2 plants, it could be a 20% grrm rate for all I care. I will say most varieties were close to 100% germ rate in tupperware. Your puerto rican yellows are ridiculous lol
