Hey guys!
So after reading tons of tips and tricks from the forums and I finally got around to joining today! My names Owen, I'm a 19 year old college student from tampa working full time as an EMT for a local ambulance service.
My grand-uncle in Palatka, FL has been growing Datil's for as long as I can remember and makes a sauce that my family fights over. His passion for peppers is kind of what inspired me to start growing. After throwing chili seeds onto the soil of a potato I was growing (and forgot about), I came out on my patio one day and noticed the entire pot was covered in sprouts. And thats pretty much how I got started. One thing led to another and now my patio is covered in pepper plants. So far im rockin' a datil, cayenne, tabasco, habanero, and chili. I've attached pics of the collection (including my new baby habs!), tell me what you guys think!
Looking forward to meeting everyone!

P.S. I rarely use message boards, so if anyone can tell me how to not have GIANT pictures I would truly appreciate it!
