POTAWIE

POTAWIE

Its almost time to get the floro lights set-up again for another growing season. I just can't wait to get some plants growing again, its something to distract me from the cold, harsh winter.
Once again I'm trying to discipline myself from growing every super-hottie in my collection, and am hoping to focus mainly on jalapenos and Anaheim/Numex types which are always popular in Potawie-land. I'm also hoping to do some market sales so I need a good variety of sweet/mild/medium peppers, and only a few hot/super-hot varieties. I might even pass on growing fataliis this round since my freezer and pantry are still loaded with them.
So what's your plans for seed starting, and varieties for 2010? I'm still working on my grow list but I hope to finalize it very soon and will likely post it.

Looks like 7 pot/pods are one of the favorite pepper again this season but personally I think I'll stick to a few Scorpions and douglahs for my super-hotties
 
Potawie, I'm going to be doing my best to focus on Jalapeños, Anaheims, NeMex, Hot Hungarians and only a few super hots. It's going to tough though as this is like 180 degrees from last years grow list. But, I too have a freezer full and a ton of powders that should last me until 2011 season.
 
+1 again pepperfreak:)
I've got enough super-hotties for probably 10+ years but I still have to grow some fresh ones for burning my friends and family, and hopefully I'll find a local market for them next season.
 
The largest quantities I'm growing this year are the Red Habs, Congos, & Bhuts. I like the flavors and they are easy to grow.

For me, it really boils down to what I enjoy eating :)

And what grows best in my area.
 
Yes I too have the winter blues and am prepping my indoor germination which I start in another week or so. This year will be a little thin on varieties due to losing 4 of them, but got two new ones thanks to members.

7Pod
Trinidad Scorpion
Naga Morich
Fatalii
Caribbean Habanero
White Habanero
Lemon Drop
Green and Yellow Bell
Jalapeno


Beat wishes to everyones growing success in 2010!!:dance:
 
Douglah, douglah, and more douglah. My stash of dried super hots and all my sauces I'm good thru 2010. All my plants outside are still alive so far and will be cut back and put in the ground this spring. I'm not even going to label my cups this year and hope all breeds true and chocolate in 2010. Then again I could start another 50 different varieties.:lol:
 
I'm cutting way back on the peppers this year - I still have a couple of pounds of dried peppers left from the last two years, and there really isn't much of a market in Cincy.

I do have some 7-pot seeds from AJ I will grow. Also, japs, habs, Hungarian Hot Wax, A cayenne or two. A couple of sweet banana and bell peppers will round out the list.

My garden will support 11 rows and I already have three reserved for potatoes, four for tomatoes and one for peppers. I still need to find room for:
Basil
Onions
Carrots
Beets
Beans (lots of them)
Broccoli
Cucumbers

and probably a couple of things I have forgotten!

I'm not sure yet. :) I've got so many things I want to try and then there is reality. Goat Pepper is one for sure. I'm going to grow some Scotch Bonnets from a friend of mine who got neat crosses (peach).

I dream of growing 100+ varieties of Pubescens in one season. Maybe. :)

I'll definitely grow all I get from NJA regarding India varieties. I'm very excited about them.

started sowing some a few days ago and will start the rest in a few weeks. I hope I'm not starting too early but last year I was too late and after the summer we had, I'm not making that mistake again. My grow list will be as follows:

Others to start soon: Fatalli, Scotch Bonnet, Aji Limon, Orange hab, Mustard Hab, White Hab, Paper Lantern, Tabasco, Long Cayenne, Bishops Crown, Brazilian Starfish

A lot of new stuff that I learned from people on this site last summer, so I'm looking forward to testing it all out.
