Jamison!  Looks like the plants have survived the
move and are digging their new surroundings!
 
My you be blessed with a boatload of pods!

 

[Jamison]

Damn bro, see what happens when you don't update in like a million years?!?  You got all those awesome shots to make us jealous!  The more I see those TS Chocolates, the more I am kicking myself for now sowing some.  I got some out of a monster pod last season and shoulda stuck a few seeds in the ground.  Oh well, gotta watch yours.  Looks like everything is moving in the right direction and you should be on one of those HGTV or DIY network shows, with all the renos you pulled!
 
I grew both the Maui and Goat's last year as well and I agree, the Maui Purple is a much heavier producer.  I wanna say they were about the same heat level, but there were just so many more pods on the Maui Purple.  I got tired of picking and just let them go, I'd go out and grab a few every once and a while, but that, the Red Chiero, Pimenta de Chiero, and a few others like it were just too much to keep up with.

  Thanks Matt! I really need to update more. Maybe today I will....... I know what you mean with the Maui Purples. There has to be a hundred ripe pods on that thing. Hard to keep up with. I'll have to send you some of them Chocolate Scorps this year. First time I grew them as well. I appreciate you stoppin in man, I really do!

 

Beautiful peppers -plants and pods!
Don't know how you manage across a handful of states, but keep up the good work!

 Jesse, its not easy my man. Been back and forth. I only have one plant down south in TN, a MoA bonnet. Steve954 decided thats the most isolated MoA in the country, lol. Gonna have to move here quick and don't think I'll be able to take my babies with unfortunately. A couple are gonna sneak in there somehow, without the wifey knowing!
 

All I could think of looking at this update was the Trace Adkins song.
 
You sir have got your game on!

Thanks buddy! Heres one for yall!

Looking good! glad to see a update from you. Hope all is going well with the move and all

Thanks man! Its been few and far between updates. I appreciate the kind words man. Moving across the country is harder than I thought it would be! Stressed to the max man. Can't wait to relax for once in my life! Hope everything going good up there for ya! WI weather is so hard to grow chiles in ain't it?
 
 

Jamison you caught me speechless mon, you’re doing an awesome job and have loads of pods to soon come. Wonderful updates and pictures, I’m surprised how great everything looks with you being so busy with all dat life’s been throwing at you. Keep up dat great grow and have great weekend brethren!

Ramon, my man! The weather here has been unbearably hot. 95 to 100 with 100% humidity. Flowers just drop all day long. THey are growing really tall tho because of that. But the weather looks good for the week highs in the upper 70's and and high 50's at night. But I live directly next to Lake Michigan so we kinda have a weird micro climate. You never know what the weather is gonna be up here. Might as well just flip a coin and decide to be honest. Thanks for stoppin man, I hope your not too busy for the rest of the summer like you said in your glog buddy!
 
 

Wow huge update! Great pics, everything looks killer, container and in-ground. My potted plants aren't looking so hot. Goats weed and Maui purple in particular looking awesome. Rock on!

 Thanks man! Hows things in your world?
 

Jamison!  Looks like the plants have survived the
move and are digging their new surroundings!
 
My you be blessed with a boatload of pods!

PaulyG! Yea I haven't moved the plants to TN, and not sure how many are gonna make it down there. Moving trucks and trailers and all that stuff isn't cheap I'm finding out, so space is at a premium while driving down there! We'll see what happens tho man! Hope everything is good on the West Coast my man!

I agree with Greg … and say this last pic is awesome brethren. So I was driving around earlier today and Da Joker tune from Steve Miller came on the radio which for some unknown reason reminded me of one of your late night updates

That's awesome Jamie-son! Lovely bunch of coconuts.....coconuts from HELL! Glad you and the fam (plants included in fam generalization..lol) made the move safe and sound buddy. Chu chu chuggin' along...

 

[GA Growhead]

So i know those plants in the ground aren't coming down south, but do we need to set up a fund to get the potted plants down to TN? Croud source a uhaul truck? or a trailer?
I will sell pods to finance the bringing of the plants if that's what i gotta do!
& They will get an extended season once here!

Yea, I've been back and forth. Just like this weekend I have to drive down there Saturday, and then take a train back to Chicago or Racine, leaving on that same Saturday. Lots of time in my truck lately, like I don't get enough of that at work eh. Honestly the inground plants could look a little better. I haven't watered or gave them them any nutes all year. Ma Nature been taking care of them for me. Thanks for stopping by Greg!

What up King!? Thanks man, almost moved in. Going to rent a Budget truck Thursday and get it all down there at once. I'm sick of moving to TN with my truck and a little 5x8 trailer. Bring on the big boy!

Jason, that brought a tear to my eye buddy! I've been sitting outside looking at all the container plants, worrying about never being able to see their full potential. I'm gonna try to get a couple at least down there man! OW Butch T from last year, and whatever else I can fit! I know the wife ain't gonna be too happy! THey get over it tho!

 

[WalkGood]

Brethren I'm glad you got a chuckle ... you should have seen me when I was driving, lol, almost wrecked ...

 

[romy6]

 Nice to see you are still growing while traveling. i have no idea how you do it. Pants look super nice. Maybe I should stop babying mine so much and they will look like yours. Be safe on your travels.
