Real Nice GIP.  Are those 10 or 15 gallons?  I use similar and my back barks at me when I am done filling them.  What are the racks for under the root pouches?

3 gallon, 5 gallon, and 7 gallon
 
the racks were there to hold the rows down (it was windy) also last year they helped with buckets and pots not sinking in and sealing to the poly (was just a preventative drainage measure not necessary with the fabric pouch's )
 
 
thanks for stopping by to take a look

I am trying a lemon tree and a fig tree in a 10 gallon root pouch this year.  I will be following your cherry grow.  I  could see adding that to the group next year.

last pie cherry going in this year, a semi-dwarf  Evans / Bali Cherry (this ones goin in a 1/2 wine barrel )
 

Evans / Bali
 

didn't get a picture of this step on the others, applying extra Mycorrhizae and Azospirillum directly to roots 
 

fill it in

Nice work GIP!
Why are you keep cherry trees in pots?

 

[Guatemalan Insanity Pepper]

Nice work GIP!
Why are you keep cherry trees in pots?

multiple reasons;
They are dwarf and semi-dwarf pie cherries and keeping them in pots will keep them even smaller and more manageable.
I am very indecisive when it comes to where to put something, i like the ability to move stuff around
We have lousy very compact clay and rocks here, and the ground would need to be amended a lot before i would feel comfortable planting them in-ground here
Somewhere deep in the back of my mind there is still hope for relocating (like the wife will ever actually move further away from her parents )
 
mostly because the Soil here is terrible, and there is still a chance that there permanent home may be at her parents house, or elsewhere 
 
thanks for stopping by and looking
 
 
 

G.I.P.

 

[FiresOfNil]

Can't wait to get some updates full of fruit here! I want to see your peppers

 

[Chilima]

midget cherry who would say GIPs into that xD

 

[calchilihead]

nice grow to my fell growbro

 

[Guatemalan Insanity Pepper]

brief update:
 
 
some of the plants are out soaking up some sun
 

some were getting kinda tall so i staked them to minimize wind damage 
 

same lot, different angle
(that cheap red sled you see in the background is what i have been using to drag groups of plants in and out of the garage where they are under HPS light, it helps save the back a little )
 

flower close up
 (picked this one up from the local nursery it's called sweet-heat (stupid impulse buy like i needed another plant )
 
 
 
 
...
 
 

 

[Chilima]

Good stuff Gip

 

[Devv]

Looking good!
 
I like the red sled idea!
 
Anything to save the back is a major plus in my book

 

[Guatemalan Insanity Pepper]

Short update:
 
 
well, weather here has been terrible, rain then partly sunny then few more days of rain, then 1 day partly sunny, etc.
 
it has made it tough to acclimate my plants, but i have got most all of them out doors now
 

 
 
the Overwintered plants are looking like a jungle and starting to produce pods again

 

White Bhut pods
 

Long yellow Pubescens 
 
Here's the DWC and cheater tank plants
(note there are also Pumpkin, and pineapple sage at the bottom of pic, they are not in DWC, they are just under the HPS light)
 

look at them roots
 

so white
 

1st pod formed on plants planted this year goes to Tomato-pepper
 
that's it for now, but expect more updates as soon as the weather allows for more transplanting
 
 
 
thanks for looking

Very nice.
The plants from your seeds are growing nice.
Rocoto yellow early is really early,at 2 months old is ready to flower.
The seeds trade was great.
I have pods from a lot of Pubes now ,maybe we can trade again some seeds.
Cheers

Nice Glog GIP, your plants look real happy and healthy. Keep up the great work and keep those pics coming.

SR.
