GPR 2020: Seeing clearly

Good evening and thanks for taking a look at my glog 
Seeds started 4th & 5th
 
This year from start to finish I’ll be updating unlike years past and hopefully my take this year will result in a ton of sauce (cousins brew) pickled hot peppers (mine) and gonna do a mesquite smoked powder mix. So sit back, relax and come on this journey to grow some sick, some mild and some new varieties with me. 
Here’s the list (so far):
 
Bishops Crown
Dedo de moca (thanks GIP)
Violet Sparkle (thanks GIP)
Dulce Sol (thanks GIP)
Purple Tobago Seasoning (thanks GIP)
Pdn x Bmj white (thanks Paul)
Stuffing scotch bonnet (hoping for 1 sprout)
Aji lemon
Aji peach fantasy 
Aji Cachucha
Aji Dulce
Aji Dulce Orange 
Aji charpita
Sugar Rush Red
Sugar Rush Cream
MAMP Black NGR

& of course the  Ghosts

Poop happens, but we prepare, or should...LOL

 

[PaulG]

Yeah I commented too and now a bunch of stuff is missing   

 
I can’t remember what I posted, anyway   

 

[Ghost Pepper Revolution]

Haha yeah and speaking of poop, today I picked up some grade A cow poo (4 buckets) already a month into compost which will help me put some stuff back into my soil especially as I take my 10 month composted cow poo to the new pepper site. 
 
Update while I’m at it: Purple Tobago seasoning popped now so things are coming along good 

 

[PepperFish]

I'm looking forward to seeing that Purple Tobago Seasoning pepper!

 

[Ghost Pepper Revolution]

Did you say purple Tobago Seasoning? I gotta see that one

 

yeah buddy... GIP sent me these and I lost this plant to aphids last year so this year gonna be diligent with the neem spraying 

 

[Ghost Pepper Revolution]

Update: nice rains and outdoor plants are happy (pods baby) along with a mutant seedling 
Helmet head kicking that seed shells butt    And of course last year no Aji Charpitas and this year all 4 seeds started 
alien???

 

 

 

[PaulG]

Good growin' GPR.
Looks like that helmet is about to come off.
Maybe it needs a little encouragement.

Haha thanks and yes I helped it with minor leaf tip damage. 
 
I tried to cull my Bode Roxa runt but ended up being a softy so outside it went

Yeah GPR.  Maybe you can dial up Myles Garrett. 

 

[Devv]

Well done
 
So you place the seeds in the what looks like rapid rooters and they are touching the water?
I really want to try that next year. Glad you didn't cull the Bode Roxa, it's a cool looking plant.
 
I'm jelly about the cow manure, with the COVID this year there are no cattle on the place. No cattle=no poo

 

[Ghost Pepper Revolution]

lol it was way more successful  :

thanks bud, that’s exactly what it is. I use rapid rooters and about 50% of it touches water, the AG works pretty good so I’d recommend it. The germ rate in it is as follows: 1 seed= none, 2 seeds= maybe 1, 3 seeds= all 3 germinate 
I had to pull the runt and there’s still 2 in it so another has to go along with the 3 extra Charpitas 
 
yeah it was a nice score on the cow poo, local lady I get it from who has 3 cows, 2 goats and bunch of chickens. I gotta get consistent because I’d have like 8 buckets worth a month or more and composted manure is gold 

 

[PaulG]

The Bode looks like a nice plant! 
 
Love the purple!

 

[Ghost Pepper Revolution]

Thanks Paul, I’ll have to send ya some 
 
Update time: So today as I strolled the Homie Depot looking for a blueberry bush I wandered to the peppers and see “Candy Cane”(capsicum Annum) and well I blacked out and found this plant on my front seat. I love the variegated look on leaves and peppers so expect many crosses to come from me. 
I’m also putting 3 peppers from Paul in the Pepcorn machine
Purple Thunder -3
Purple Thunder -M
TripPaul threat (latest batch 2019)

gonna produce some kool peppers 

 

 

 

[PaulG]

Candy Cane looks like it’s ready to set pods!
 
Good luck with the PT and TT seeds. Looking
forward to seeing some nice pods on your plants!

Hey hey!
 
Say, how are we pronouncing, "Haskorea," anyway?

 

[Devv]

Looking good GPR! I hope the Candy Cane makes great peps

I call it Has-Korea when spoken.

 

[CaneDog]

At the risk of going way off-topic here, I haven't been able to determine where the name came from.  I've even seen an alternate spelling, "Haskoria," e.g., http://www.fordsfieryfoodsandplants.com/Haskoria-pepper. I looked it up once thinking it might have taken its name from a city/geography and that might clarify, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
 
I've heard it in my head as "Hask" as in "ask" and with the accent on the 2nd syllable.  On the 3rd with a "Has" as in "spaz" it would sound the the start of a question, e.g., Haskorea a surplus of kimchi?
