Mattys first ever Glog "Into the fire" 2019 season

Hello everyone and thanks for looking at my "Into the Fire" Glog!!
 
So I started my gardening hobby in my early 20's about 16 years ago now, and though I have played around with many types of flowers/vegis  tomato's is what most of my energy was put into. I loved alll the different colors and types that could be grown which really reminds me of all the exciting Chilli variety's that exist today. A couple seasons ago while looking for some info on a particular type of sweet pepper I stumbled onto a few videos of some people eating super hots (Ghost,Reapers ect..).  After looking into it a little more I figured this would be a very interesting thing to grow even just as a novelty since really no one in my area grows much if anything at all.
 
Last Winter I went and bought some seeds from Ebay..one was a mixed bag Ghost/Reaper/Scorpion...another was the Peter Pepper and the third was some type of Thai i believe. Only the Thai ended up growing true to type and the other 2 was a Cayenne and Ornamental. I was pretty disappointed when they did finally start putting out pods. It was around that time I started looking for a group or forum dedicated to Chillis, and luck would have it I found THP and all of you fantastic peoples.
 
Anyways with the boring back story outta the way I really planned ahead for this years grow....I built a 6'Hx6'Lx2'D grow box (not exact mesurments) which has 3 shelves and the middle one able to come out if I wnated to grow larger plants from the bottom tier. I went overkill on seed types making 3 decent size buys, 2 of which were 30+ from Garth at TexasHotPeppers and a smaller one from a fella in Arz.
 
I do not plan to grow all of these as my wife would kill me, but 20 or so might not be so bad.

So would like to see some favorites and suggestions from the fine people here at THP so I can kinda get it down to a much much smaller grow list. Will also get some pics up shortly here of my grow box which still has one more shelf I need to wire up just waiting on a few more strip lights to arrive in the mail, but will still give an idea of what it will all look like when its done.
 
In final: This is a new hobby for me within the hobby I already enjoy...I am going to try some new things (new for me) and even the much earlier starts then normal will be interesting to see how it all comes out at the end.  I look forward to the input from the community and keeping this glog updated as much as I can.
 
Here is too success in 2019!!
 
CHEERS!

A couple months ago I bought a few small pumps so I could use them to make some compost tea this summer, did a quick rig jobby and tested them out for awhile. Was like $4 each and came with 3ft of tube and the air stone.

Edit - Oh I also bought a couple cheap macro lens for the phone....maybe it will be decent enough to get some of those fancy pics some of you put up eh.
 
 
Man....1 week later and I would take the risk and set up the hoop house, still a tad leery incase we get a late season snow storm though. I will get out today or tomrrow and dig out the snow in and around the frame me thinks eh.

My brother told someone its 12 o'clock somewhere and they weren't impressed. Said the song says 5 o'clock somewhere lol. It was probably 8am when he was saying it, he loves beer.
 
I drink beers in the morning if the mood strikes me right.  Anybody who's got a problem with it has got a problem all his own. 
;)
 
Alcohol makes me retarded, so as long as you don't do dumb shit when your drunk I don't see a problem with it. I do know some people that are annoying as fuck when they are drunk too. And people that think drinking and being obnoxious is cool, even at a kids birthday party or somewhere you wouldnt expect to find people drinking. But my bottom line is that this is a free country, and if that's what you wanna do then so be it. I smoke like a chimney, so to each their own. And I also realize there is a diffence between having a few drinks, and getting hammered. I would drink a beer or two with lunch or dinner, but if I only have a couple I end up getting a headache when I stop. And that ain't worth it.

All these 420 PTs and talk as of late got to me I think......I used to be a daily smoker but aboot 7-8 years ago just stopped since its very expensive to buy in my area and just having to comb the streets and feel like a criminal doing so pissed me right off.
 
So as I am sure most of you know here in Canada as of Oct 19th?? I think it was we legalized recreational Cannabis and can buy it online or pretty much any province except my own from shops (our stores open later next month I believe) and I had not yet made a purchase.....that is until last night.
 
Think it is 1-3 business days for it to arrive and came to $42.50 Cdn for 3.5g's and that included tax and shipping. I probably should of went and read some reviews first since what I bought didn't get super high marks but since I haven't touched anything in aboot 2 years probably anything is going to blast me regardless.
 
Tokyo Smoke Go is the strain I think it is...I just went with the highest THC for the lowest price I could get..lol
