contest Growdown Throwdown 2017 Aji Lemon Drop!

[Devv]

Hmmm... I just set them on the kitchen table, they seem to do best for me there. They may take a few days longer, but they always pop there. Works for me

Now then, about those cheaters who are getting 4-day germination....

Not cheating here! I have planted several seeds at the same time of the lemon drop. One has popped so far, the rest is still asleep

I put 9 seeds on wet paper towel near 10pm on the 1st.  Germ chamber at 78.5-80F.  8 have popped.

 

[stettoman]

I'm just jealous. Mine must know they're in zone 3....

 

[dragonsfire]

I put mine in soil yesterday, no signs yet.

 

[Geonerd]

No sign from the other two cheater seeds.  Seems I'm raising one cocaine addict and two pot-smoking slackers.  

 

[Masher]

Moved the two grodan cubes for the GT from the corner to center of the tray....have signs of life from other cubes in that area already.

I had 2 contest seeds pop tonight. Along with a handful of Aji Amarillo.

Too cool! I almost have a maternal feeling goin' down.

Meanwhile in a quiet corner of my office... LOOPS AHOY!

2 of 4 planted popped up overnight, phew as I gave the rest of the seed away!

 

[MarcV]

Growing nicely!
 

 
The second pot (behind the lemon drop) contains aji pineapple seedlings, the pot behind that contains sugar rush peach seedlings. They were all planted at the same day. All are in the heated propagator with soil temperature set to 24°C/75°F.

I threw some seeds in Jiffy pellets today. For me, I win if I can go from seed to fruit.
 
Good luck all!

 

[Geonerd]

Coke-head seed still going strong.  No sign of his siblings.
 

 

[Devv]

Congrats on the new babies!
 
So I now know my seeds will pop

Didn't do much. Soaked for 15 hrs and left them in top of my heating pad. Can't find my thermostat. Here's some photos using girlfriends camera.

Very cool pics Chuck!
 
Here's to a win!

Thanks! I should correct that statement. Girlfriend took the pics with her camera. I won't touch her camera. She did give me her old Nikon D5100. She picked up a D5500. I've got to charge my battery and get after it. I know Rich if a avid photographer. Hope to see some cool stuff. The whole photography thing is all foreign to me, but learning.

Cool shot! I just switched over to full frame 5diii. Building up a killer lens arsenal. Just got a sweet studio strobe and plan to grab the company's ring flash too, that should make for some killer shots!

I have three seedlings zipping along now, one has a damaged cotyledon after clumsy helmet head surgery!  Still, not to worry, my goal is one healthy plant to focus on.  I can't plant out until early May at the earliest and indoor space is a headache, so will have to think carefully about my strategy hereon in...
 

Also if I may, a quick shameless plug to the Biggest Bonnet competition, I know some of you are intending to take part, but for those who may have missed it buried down in the Promotion forum, check it out;
