Jeff's Glog- 2015 edition.--In the dirt

Here we go again. :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:
 
 
 
 
Starting a little later this year. Right now, just some pubes. Supers in a week or two and the rest of the crew in Feb sometime.

Since the glog is pretty boring at this point, we'll get it off to a good start with some good food. Blackened chicken and dirty rice with jalapeno poppers.

All right, Jeff, now just to wait for the hooks!
 
Good luck going forward this season.

+1 .....looks like REAL blackening;)!
Thanks Dave, coming from a LA buy, I'll take that as a real compliment, I just dabble in southern cuisine. Good to see you still lurking around here. You starting a glog this year?

     ...Speaking of wins...

Good luck Jeff, and nice too see food! :D
Thanks Essegi, I noticed your glog isn't shy with the food pics either. Nice going.

Good Luck for 2015!
Can't go wrong with the pubes.
What does the rest of the list look like?
Thanks Tripple J. Really like the pubes, I just wish I could get them to produce here.
 
The rest of the grow hasn't been finalized yet but there won't be near the amount of supers that I had last year. With quite a few gallon bags in the freezer and tons of already dried powder and whole pods, I'm probably set for several years. I will keep my OW ghost pepper though. It has been around for 3 years now and I've grown attached to it.
 
I envision a few hab or Scotch bonnet varieties as well as a slew of various annuums. My wife was a real big fan of the green chilies I made last year, so a good dozen or more hatch chilies is a must.
 
None of my bacs germinated this year, so I'll be trying again this year with new seed stock I just picked up from Judy. There will be several varieties of these as well.
 
I'll likely have the whole list hashed out in a few weeks.

Good luck in 2015 Jeff... especially with the pubes!
Thanks Rick. Yes, the pubes... As you can see, I'm starting a good bit more than last year and I have 1 OW pube that survived so far. That makes 13 if they all make it. Hopefully I can find a variety that doesn't hate Ohio weather and actually produces. :rolleyes:

Good luck to you this season. Have you nailed down your final list for this year yet?
Thanks and not quite yet. See my reply to JJJ above.

Hope the pubes grow into nice little bushes and you have a hot time eating the reproductive fruit of the mother.  Here's to lots of pod porn in 2015!
 
 
Cheers Cappy. I can only hope. All my previous pube attempts have been thwarted by broad mites so I'm trying more and different varieties than before. Hope at least one of them grows well.
 
About  a week later and no sprouts yet on the pubes, but I did get the bacs and chinense planted this morning. Just going with a few favorites for the chinense since I already have a freezer full of them awaiting processing. Probably a bit too early to start the Baccys but none of mine made it last year so I want to get them started early enough that I could start over if necessary.
 
Planted today:
MOA,
Caribbean red
Paper Lanterns
Bhut Jolakai (original from Judy)
Jigsaw
Naga Monarch Chocolate (NMC)
Aji Amarillo
Bishops crown
Brazilian starfish
 
Add that to the already planted:
Orange rocoto
Red Rocoto
Golden Rocoto
Giant Rotoco

Annnnnnnnnnnd this is my really dead stick. It used to be a very prolific NMC, but, apparently, it didn't much like getting yanked out of the ground in October. I have a couple more upstairs. All dead accept the two shown above.
