Grow list 2019

Well I finally settled on what plants I'm going to grow this year and wanted to send out a big thanks to all that I have been gifted or purchased seeds from.
 
Yellow Rocoto - Chewi is the man!
 
Paper Lantern
Thai - Thanks Juanitos!
 
Sri Lanka Chili Red - Growdown throwdown, Thanks Guru!
 
Aji Cereza
Tekne Dolmasi
Scotch Bonnet MOA
Aji Limo
Biker Billy
Allepo
Fatali
Brown Jolokia
Aji Golden - All from Trentl, Thanks!
 
Sugar Rush Cream
Sugar Rush Peach
Scotch Bonnet Cappuccino - Walchit- Thanks Andy!
 
Malawi Piquante - Thanks Hippy Seed Company
 
Kung Pao
Cherry bomb - Thanks Sis
 
This is definitely the most I've ever grown so it should be an interesting summer.
 
Alright, welcome home my friend!
 
Glad you arrived to find your plants
survived your absence with no problems.
 
Have fun getting to know your babies again!
 
Can anybody help me with a couple questions.  First are these little bump on the stalks of these plants reason for concern? They are only on a handful of plants.  Second, what would be the cause of the lower leaves on these Allepo plants turning yellow and dropping?

Not sure about the first part, but those bottom leaves yellowing and dropping is usually due to lack of light penetration. Nothing out of the ordinary while inside under artificial lighting I'd reckon. Plants are looking healthy otherwise! :)

Similar bumps in that first section of the stem can be the beginning of rooting that doesn't actually form roots unless they're underground (or sometimes with enough humidity just a fraction above soil level).  Certain varieties are more likely to do this than others.  If you have limited light penetration like LPDE suggests might be the case, that might increase the likelihood of this.  Limited air circulation may also play into it - both would increase humidity.  That's my best guess - I'm used to the bumps being a bit more concentrated low versus yours being more even throughout the first section.  It wouldn't be any bad thing, but like many things a good reminder to check your environment for any factors that could be improved.

+1 on all he said.
Roots bumps, replant deeper , air circulation etc.
 
Thanks guys, glad it doesn't sound like a big problem. I have a fan running 24/7 on them but the area is pretty crowded so I may need to try and come up with some more room to get better light penetration.

As long as the plant is healthy, I like roots
growing out at ground level from those little
nodules, 'cuz I like to plant deep if I can..
 
I don't see them as a problem at all. CD
pretty much covered it!
