Local's 1st Glog - Perth, Western Australia

Hey Everyone,
 
Quick intro, I'm from Perth in WA. Just bought a house recently so I now have some room to grow.
 
So I'm relatively new to this, I have only grown from seed once before but mostly just bought seedlings and grown them in pots.
 
Since I bought my new place I thought that it would be a good idea to plant my chillies in the ground instead of pots, well that was a mistake.
 
 
This is about two weeks after the replanting.

The winter has been a little longer than normal this year but they are bouncing back now with the weather heating up.
 
I now have all the seeds for this years grow;
 
- From Chilli Seed Bank
Scotch Bonnet Red
 
- From Hippy Seed Company
St Martin's Habanero
Butch T Scorpion
7 Pod Yellow
Sannam
Peach Fatali
Antillais Carribean

Have a budget setup for now to try to get these germinated, My light that I was using to keep them warm died last night so currently they may be a little cool but they are near a window during the day and closer to the middle of the room at night.

I'll be looking at trying a DWC setup for a few of these plants once they are ready too.
 
Anyway, I'll keep you all updated as I go.
 
Thanks again,
Damien

Very nice, Damien!  You will grow out of that space in no time!
 
Thanks guys :)
 
Luckily I have a 9mx4m shed so I should have a decent amount of room to expand.
 
Jason, I will definitely take you up on that offer still.. I should be able to come down one of these weekends. I will let you know :)
 
 
No probs they are still looking good, depending on what I'm working you might have to pick them up at the Ravo but at least you can have a beer and a feed ;) I recommend the hot wings!
 
Thanks guys :) hopefully my luck doesn't run out and the rest of the grow is as good as my recent luck.
 
Jason, I might be free this Sunday to come for lunch, can't pass up a beer and wings :P
 
 
I work until 5pm this Sunday but could meet you there after 6 for a beer and share some wings/Jalepeno poppers if you like. (I have two jobs it's a PITA)
 
Working 9am -5pm then 6pm - late :( the following weekend I'm only working one job, not sure what the hours are yet but I'll let you know when I find out.
 
Yeah Probably not the outside ones, but the hydros, definitely. they are growing pretty quick and they stay pretty warm in the shed so hopefully I get somewhere.
 
Just sucks that I've had such a slow start using the wrong soil :/
 
Yeah, I'll need to take some pictures of the ones outside, they are coming along nicely and should produce some pods soon.
 
This would be my first year from seed, the other years I just bought the plants and grew them in pots.
I have to say the learning curve has been insane this year.
 
Update time  :party:
 
Plants are coming along great now in their new home.. also the ones outside in the garden have shot up. (still haven't taken any photos of them  :mope: )
 
I'm looking at upgrading the lights soon, I think the plants will love it if I do.
 
But here's the DWC update.

Met up with Jason on the weekend and he was kind enough to pass on some of his spare plants, can't thank him enough :)
 
Here's their new home Jase :)
