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]

Hey Jamison! The tea and the plants look great - you have been
a busy pepper farmer, my friend! Hope you can start picking pods
real soon. Looks like your weather has dried up a bit?

Good growin' out your way!

 

[meatfreak]

Plants look great, Jamison. I'm growing the Trinidad Seasoning also and it's good too see the similarities between the pods Is yours a Yellow or Red?

Hey Paul! Always a pleasure my friend. OOO yea they have declared us in an extreme drought right now. Really hot and fairly muggy and no rain since May. Thanks for stoppin by!

Hey Meatfreak! Mine is red. Is yours very prolific too? Just amazed with that plant. All you need is one for sure. Thanks for checkin out the glog!

On another note had a mini harvest of Anaheims from the plants in the raised beds and a couple Hot cow horns from my plant at home

 

[Spiceward]

WOW!!! I like your set up with the 5 gallon buckets... a few of mine are headed that size next year.

Nice, I'm growing the Yellow one, got 2 plants going but they aren't as big as yours. By the look of it it's gonna be really prolific too, lots of flowers already. Should be interesting too see if there's any difference in taste between the Red and Yellow.

That Hot Lemon is producing pods like theres no end! Wait til they start turning yellow, that plant will realy highlight your garden. Its a wonderful tasting chili.
The Jamaican Hot looks like a Caribbean Red, either way you're in for a treat...

Thanks Greg. I've been waiting for over a month for one of them, just one of them, to turn yellow. The Hot Jamaican I got seeds from Pepper Joe, supposedly a strain he picked up in Jamaica, but I also think they are the same. Thanks for stopping by man, really appreciate the kind words!

 

[Stefan_W]

Great looking plants!

 

[kiddc]

The stem on the Hot Jamaican is THICK! Is it an overwinter?

I've got stem envy!
