Dang that is a lot of pepper pictures

Looking great, everything is so green and vibrant. I love the mix of growing mediums/styles.

Thanks, crazy that is takes me 2 days to do an update. 100 plants plus equals 10 + bumps - I am so looking forward to making more Tri-Thai, been out of that powder for the first time in 5 years for about 6 months.

You're going to have to come up with a different name this time. You have way more than 3 Thai varieties this year. Decka-Thai ??

Everything looks great.

I'll do the Tri-Thai for sure but there will be a new creation...perhaps smoked! and thanks! Very pleased everything bounced back happily, this spring was very harsh.

Hopefully not endless, I expect to spread the wealth! I can only imagine the amount of Thai powder, most every Thai I have grown before is a pod machine.

Awesome, more downpours and 50% of my annuum plants are laying on their sides...flash floods! Guess I'll need to stake aftervall

Jeff H · Jun 18, 2013

I hear you. It just got done raining like hell here. I just turned off the irrigation system until further notice and I'll head to the store for more stakes tomorrow. <sigh>

Yeah looks like I need about 30 to 40 stakes...almost tempted to do those colorful wire tomato cages.

Quick update, potted up the final runt for 2013...Butch T TS. Did I mention we use our trumpet vines as the all pepper squarefoot garden shade?

One hot box!

I think these grew overnight! Thanks rain and sun....btw my rain gauge said we got 3 inches 2 night ago.

Annuums

Super hots and what not...c.chinense

In spite of all the bad weather you have had lately, the plants are looking lush, and healthy. I can see a ton of growth since the update you made a couple weeks back. Great job! You will be swimming in pods in no time!!!

+1 Bonnie!

You have an incredible variety of awesome plants there, Chris!
Glad to see you survived the big blow; hope that's it for now. For some reason,
I never thought of Delaware as a being in the storm track.

Thanks Paul, we do miss a lot of storms in DE but often get a few bad ones a year. As for variety, I think I went a little overboard! Once I taste them all I am sure I will need to scale back next season....maybe :dance:

Been a while since I visited, every ting looking wonderful and very lush ... great job and awesome varieties \o/ ... have a great weekend!

JoynersHotPeppers · Jun 27, 2013

In 7 days the squarefoot garden of peppers is double in size. The annuums must have 200 to 300 pods on them in total. I also have my first super hot pod with some size!

6-27 update

The progress of the plants in the sq. ft. garden is amazing, chris.
