Growdown Throwdown 2022


  • Total voters
    16
  • Poll closed .
Everyone knows the rules by now...



Lets vote on this thing and get it moving so SASE's and SASBE's can get to me and I can get them sent back out.



Do not vote if you are not going to send an SASE or SASBE and participate in the grow out.





As per the customary flex, I want all my Growdown 2021 King crowning gifts to be given to the runner up in second place, that would be @ColdSmoke



Make sure he gets some royal loot!







As for poll options, I noticed three main cultivars getting interest judging by the most comments in last year's thread.



In no particular order the three poll options will be:





C. pubescens - Farm Locoto - Samaipata, Bolivia





















C. chinense dominant - Purple Thunder - @PaulG























C. baccatum - CAP 455

Seeds delivered; thank you very much @Pepper-Guru for sending these and for running the show! Sadly, 2 of them did not make it (completely shattered; thanks a lot Canada Post...) but I still have enough to get this thing going. Apologies to all of you Diesel lovers; I had to adapt my soaking method a bit this year since I grow organic! One shot for the seeds, one for me💪👊

I had another seed germinate so I may have a backup plant. Although the way it looks I may need a backup for the backup. It doesen't look like any more will be germinating as the last group of cells I had planted may have had bad and/or contaminated starting mix. Maybe just too long of Rocket Fuel seed soak, who knows.🤷🏻‍♂️ Anyway this guy almost tore his little head off trying to get out of his grave!
