Meatfreak 2015 Glog

Hi all, thanks for watching. Will be keeping a small glog this year to share progress with my friends. I've started my grow on 26th of January, everything has popped by now and true leaves are being formed. Like every year I will be growing multiple "new" Jalapeno's I've collected so far, about 21. The rest of my grow will exist mostly out of crosses I made previous season and new crosses/phenotypes from friends. Goal was to keep the amount of plants limited because I want more time on my hands for of course family and to grow other veggies to.

Why not Dave, like I said above. Highly recommend it :D I couldn't grow or achieve the same results without it :(

Great looking pods and plants Stefan!  That Orange Bubblegum 7 is just crazy big and smooth on the calyx!  Great ornamental and Jalapeno bloom colors too!
 
Glad to see the Meatfreak machine steaming forward!

Cheers, Mike! I've gathered a nice selection of varieties again, overdid it to on the amount of plants but it's gonna be a great season I'm sure. I love the calyx of BBG7 varieties :D

Great to see your plants are all in-ground and you're getting cherry tomatoes already! I've got blossoms on mine so I'm not far behind you. :)

Almost done now, only 12 more varieties left which I will plant out tomorrow! Yeah got more tomatoes going but these are ahead on the rest. Good to hear you got flowers to, won't be long then :)
 
Been a while since the last update so I figured some pictures would be nice. Things are going well but temps have been low until last week. Forecasts say we will have a heatstroke this week :(

S'right brother... very nice pics of your pods so far! First time I've seen an orange BBG7, where did you get the seeds for that variety? Glad to hear things are finally starting to warm up for you. We're still a bit behind here, but things should turn around soon. Cheers!

Great photography Stefan ... yes those high temperatures from Spain should help our plants to flourish ... all the best

Thanks! The temps are a bit to high now for the polytunnels, bad for pod setting.

No man, still taking pics with my 4 year old smartphone  :oops: should get a new one but I find them totally overpriced these days :P

That calix looks really cool. I wonder if it's good to eat!
Click to expand...
It is tasty, just not 7pot flavor or heat. More like an Orange Habanero.
 
Jamison said:
Looking stellar Meaty! Out of curiosity where did the caramel bb7 seeds come from?
Click to expand...
Thanks, Jamison. I got the seeds from Butch T, he got an pheno last season. Didn't know you had a caramel until about 2 weeks ago :)

Yeah it has finally cooled down a bit but we are still suffering drought here. I hardly have time to spend on the garden since most of the times I'm just watering. Guess your experiencing the same problem, Roberto?
