Kroelleboelle 2nd year growlog

Hello out there, this is my 2nd year growing chilis, after i had a very good year and expirence in 2009, so this year i puchased alot more varieties.

Ive plantet seeds in 72 jiffys, Febuary 6`th i planted them, but not a single one has popped up, so i was hoping someone could calm me a bit down, as im getting pretty stressed about this situation.

I plantet my seeds April 2 last year, and i was was hoping to get a headstart this year, but sofar it looks nothing like a succes.-

My seeds is located in plastic trays as i always plant in, soil is moist, temp. is 64-82 Fahrenheis 18-28 Celcius

Btw i think i have myself a fantastic menu in seeds this year, as follows:

Aji Yellow
Lemon / Aji Lemon
Aji Rojo
Bulgarian Carrot
Caribbean red - habanero
Fatali
Habanero Chocolate
Habanero Hot Lemon
Jalapeno n`early jalapeno
Lemon drop
Orange Bhut Jolokia
Rocotto Manzano Amarillo
Ring of Fire
Scorpion Tongue
Tabasco

I have overwintered a red savina(supposed as it came from naga morich seeds), standing nice with leafs in my livingroom, and a single Bolivian Rainbow, with only small leafes,3-4 other only with there stems as some buggers wouldnt leave them alone, so in the end i cut em down, with no leafes, so they didnt have to struggle to much energiwise.. And then i i have a single baby Naga Morich.

I`ll update with pictures when good news hopefully comes, sporuts and all, none the less, i`ll just have too plant a new batch in march/april then.

+ my 8 mature plants

So now ive got all sorts sprouted, except 1, and thats the Rocotto manzano, wich ive been told can be tricky to wake up, and it take time, so i`l wait then :-)

32 have now sprouted, wich means im upto a total of 40 plants at this point. Now im considering maybe to plant some more seeds, or maybe just to stop and see if more should pop up.

40 plants might be more than enough, considering i had 14 plants last season, and that was plenty to enjoy myself with.

Not sure yet.....

happy growing out there..

you sure do keep track of things well!

good work on your germination process.
Denmark Must be a fun place to grow, are you going to be growing these outside in soil or hydro?
 
Hello Noshownate

We have spring March till May, summer late may-a bit into September. And i live on a small island in Denmark, at the almost southeren part in Denmark, called Bornholm. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sou...5.149843,14.867249&spn=6.493408,13.095703&z=6

Wich gives us very nice and long warm summers, due to the sea being warmed up during summer, and stores alot of heat, to give us way into September.

I grow my chilis in pots outside, just as i did last year, this year no smaller than 5 ltrs. I have an unheated outdoorlivingroom, wich they can seek some coverage in very stormy weather, or in the early cold nights in May. And ive gotten myself a greenhouse this year, wich im thinking about letting some of the slow sorts grow in, but i have quite alot of these slow ones this year, so how many will be placed in there, im not sure.

But Denmarks just fine for growing chilis, nice summers, and all, its not cold as in Norway, or Finland by any means.
 
16 November came, and i finally got this years harvest done.

Its been a crazy growyear, due to the weather here in Denmark. It has been 25 years since we`ve had so much snow, and to top that July was the hottest July ever recorded. So pretty stressfull condition for my chilis, and many got sunteint extreme, they got burned, and had to start over and grow new leafes, and so on.

I had some plants not producing at all, the weather surely is responsible here. Bhut Jolokias, Tabasco, Aji Rojo and yellow, and Fatali didnt do their job that well. On the other hand i had no problem with all the others sorts. Those Aji`s is to much "i wanna grow big" instead of producing some pods. Tabasco and Fatali got their flowers, but way to late. Aji Lemon tho, did produce.

I got some huge chilipods, from some Scorpion tongue seeds, only one plant/seed turned out this way, and they got heat aswell, they are up to 14cm around, and 7cm long.

Hope i have some stabilseeds here, they have potential.

All in all, i ended up with 12 different sorts i think..1...2..3.. yeah 12.

1.st year i germinated in April, this year Febuary, next year.. March. It was way to early this year, they couldnt adjust to the hard sun.

But ehem.. i really just wanted to get some pics into this thread, so here we go:

My different sorts
Scorpion ToungeXL, Habanero, Scorpion tongue, Habanero Chocolate, Habanero Carabian red, Habanero hot lemon.

Jalapeno, Bulgarian Carrot, ring of fire, Chili lemon drop, Aji lemon, Bolivian rainbow.

Heres the scorpion tongue in the middle, and the quite bigger ones one the side, as said before one scorpion tongue seed produced the big ones.

And what i am doing right now, getting myself some seed, so that`ll save some money next year, selfsuplied ftw. :dance:
