Just throwing this up here to plan out my list for next year.  Looking at some changes to my grow next year.

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

This is from yesterday.  More have popped today and all 4 varieties are popping up.  I think I used a little bit too big of container for them.  First time error that will be better next season.
 
 

 
 
 
First ones the farm has ever seen.  Will probably have to pinch it off since the plant won't be able to hold it up.
 
 

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

Forgot to put up the pic of the manzano blooms.  Not a closeup, but I was trying to get them all in the pic without moving the plants.
 
 

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

Didn't think it was going to happen today, but the first hook from Saturday's planting was, oddly enough, the Not White Yellow Bhut from Sawyer.  
 
I am hoping this means the sweets and milds will be kicking it big time by Saturday.

 

[Jeff H]

1st pic is onions but what is the 2nd? Tomatillo?
 
Looking good.

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

That would be correct.  Got several new peppers popping up in the tray.  Gotta get them identified and update the germ sheet.  Looks to be another good day in the grow room.

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

Here is the first one to pop, the not white yellow bhut from Sawyer.  I have two of these up now.
 
 

 
 
 
Here are two others, the Bishop's Hat and the Thai.  Oddly enough, no sweets are up yet.  I figured them to be the first to pop.
 
 

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

Wondering if anyone has an idea what this is.  It is only on the Neyde X and seems to be mainly isolated to the top of the plant.  Never seen this before.
 
 

 
 
 

 
 
 

 

[Solem22]

That looks like edema to me. Some of my plants have it but I just cut back on the watering a little bit and it hasn't gotten any worse. But someone else may have a more educated answer.

 

[Jeff H]

I agree with the others. Edema.
 
When I first read your reply, I thought you were saying it is only on the top of the leaves. That had me stumped. I came back and looked later and noticed that you really typed that only the top leaves were affected and then you photographed the bottom of the top leaves.
 
Edema is only on the underside of the leaves.

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

It is surprising to me that this is happening now in the gallon pots.  When I would bottom water the 3 1/2 inchers they would get a lot more water.  Maybe I hit these with a little more than normal when I top watered.  
 
Thanks for the responses.  So glad it wasn't a bug of some sorts as I usually have no bug issues.  Only time I did was 2012 when I tried to OW some flowering plants that were near roses with some OW peppers.  

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

Anyone else grow up eating leftover fried mashed potato patties
 
 

 

[Devv]

We call them potato pancakes here, great with apple suace!
 
The edema is caused from the plant not being able to expire the moisture fast enough. The edema spots will turn brown, those cells have been damaged, literally they burst (kind of). I had some do that. I was lucky to be able to bring them outside and that stopped any further damage. So inside, more fan, less water. At first I thought it was bug eggs.
 
Have a great weekend!

I see a larger garden this season

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

I see a larger garden this season

 
Doing some raised bed things this year.  Still not sure what I am going to do with the 25 BMJ plants lol
 
 
Broke down and dug into my stash of peppers in the freezer.  Sausage, Cheese, and TS Yellow omelet.
 
 

 

[Devv]

Tomorrows breakfast!

 

[HillBilly Jeff]

Went through the watering process today.  It really stinks.  Neyde X got a little too dry, but they will be okay.  Walking a fine edema line isn't fun.  Going to end up watering more often, but less quantity.  I think that is what I may end up having to do.  Got some pics to throw at ya.
 
The bulk of my HBJ collection.
 
 

 
 
 
Paper Lanterns are doing well.  For not going to grow these, I still ended up with two plants.
 
 

 
 
 
A  couple Manzano pics.  No pods that I can see yet, but I didn't dig too much.
 
 

 
 
 

 
 
 
Couldn't get Pete to germ and ended up with 5.  Going to give some away as Cayenne....explain those pods!!!
 
 

 
 
 
I planted these seeds on the 15th of December, so this plant is less than 3 months in the dirt.
 
 

 
 
 
Hodge podge of plants.  Moruga, PSB, Neyde, Hab types.
 
 

 
 
 
Tepin x Lemon Drop is going to be a monster.
 
 

 
 
 
One of my yellow not butch t plants.
 
 

 
 
 
Not pepper plant.
 
 

 
 
 
Forgot to take onion pics.  Used too big of container, but they have lots of room.  Germination could have been better, but this is my first go at onion from seed.

 

[Devv]

Plants all looking just super Jeff!
 
Some are ready for the outside already. I know this, they will be ready to hit the dirt a runnin'!

 

[maximumcapsicum]

Sucks about the edema HJeff. I think it is a very common problem. Doesn't seem to slow the plants down too much, just doesn't look good. Increasing air flow inside has helped for me. Increasing the space between leaves may help too.

Really your plants are all looking great. I wouldn't get too worried.

I know they are so ready to go in the ground and I am so ready to put them there.  Wish I could.  Hoping they aren't stunted as I am not potting up from the gallon pots.  2 months until hardening off.

I wish I could spread them out, but right now space is tight.  Temps hit 60 today, but we have another cool down coming.  Then I can move some things around and spread em out some more.  Just have the ceiling fan in there right now for a breeze.  I try to keep the edema ones on the outside getting more air.  The annuums don't seem to be affected by it.
 
I was worried until I found out it wasn't critters lol.  Great web site here and the people on it.  Once I get some rhubarb ready to pick, there is going to be a flood of newbie questions in the sauce section from me lol.  
 
Ten days in and here is my round two tray.  I am going to try to leave these in here as long as I can.  
 
 

 
 
 
Tomatoes go in the dirt in 5 days, but that is just another 72 cell tray.  Hoping to be able to leave them in the grow table and just adjust the shelf as they grow.
 
Went for my hike today, did about 3 3 1/2 miles.  The good news is the snow is melting fast.  The bad news is the snow is melting fast.  Yesterday I could walk on top of the snow, not today.
