Jamison's 2012 Grow Log Now overwintering

[background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Hello everyone and welcome to my very own Glog. Got a later start than normal this year but I'll keep em under the lights 24/7 til end of May or early June, properly harden off and plant in 5 gallon buckets. All seeds came from Pepperjoes.com and pepperlover.com. Also one Burpee seed. Soaked seeds overnight on 3/27, and all went into coco pellets the next morning and placed into a propagator for germination. As soon as I had a sprout the dome came off for air circulation. Last Saturday, took all the sprouts I wanted mixed up 1 part perlite, 1 part vermiculite, and 3 parts Promix organic soil , took the netting off around the pellets and planted into the oh so famous solo cups, with holes drilled in the bottom of course. They have been under a 4 tube, 2x4 foot, 54 watt T5 since sprouting. Very impressed with that light. When seedlings finally start vegging I will be hittin em up with the old Fox Farm trio . Grow Big, Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom. Also got some Organic CalMag that I might experiment with.[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Here is the line up:[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Pepper Joes:[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Giant Bhut Jolokia[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Scotch Bonnet[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Hot Cow Horn[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Butch T Trinidad Scorpion[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Anaheim[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Hot Jamaican[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Burpee:[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Hot Lemon[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]PepperLover:[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Bhut Jolokia Red[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Scotch Bonnet Red[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Scotch Bonnet Yellow[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Naga Morich[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Trinidad Seasoning[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Early Jalapeno[/background][background=rgb(233, 216, 193)]Here is where I was about two weeks ago.[/background]

I just bought stuff to make's me sum tea ya hurd!! Did you brew that out in this weather???? I haven't had time to research what temps to brew in. I mean inside my house, I don't want all that shit stinkin' up my good air. I've been on an organic movement for a little while (although I have been trying to get samples of what ever I can get due to lack on moooooooo la!....I feel real bad about it though....so I'm still a good person right.....lmao) Here is two great articles I found that I've been sharing with everyone. I need to post them in my glog. We need this weather break man! All of my flowers are drying and shriveling up or just falling off. I have a few plants that don't mind it and keep putting out flowers and pods.

This next week will be an interesting one. As long as we are 90 or below....I expect great things! Awesome grow man. I love stoppin' by....I just need look away from the moon shine....it be callin' my name like a shamin' summoning rain! Take care buddy.

THanks King! Gonna read them tonight. Yea the tea was brewing outside. I just covered it with an old flannel shirt. Brewed up pretty fast. Your soil and plants are gonna love you for it man. I've noticed more growth in the past 3-4 weeks than ever, and I'm taking a guess it's the tea. Good luck man and let me know if you need anything for your tea. I'll make a trip down there to give you and hand if you need. Thanks for checkin in brotha!

I just follow the general feeding on the box for the alfalfa meal and kelp meal according to how many gallons your brewing. Two tbls per gallon of molasses, a whole package of mykos, about 1-2 tbls per gallon of bat guano remember bat guano is slow release. Distilled water, and tons of aeration. THe mykos feeds off of the natural sugars in the molasses so you can't really go to overboard with that IMO. But thanks for stopping by man, good luck with the tea! I'll check in and see how it turns out.

PS Not a miracle fruit.

Thank you! Id say the flavor is sweet, floral, with a nice quick pinch of heat that hits your tongue instantly. Good stuff.
