Ozzy's 2016 Grow

tctenten · Dec 3, 2015

Nice list Ozzy. I do not have any of your wish list otherwise I would send them. I cannot get motivated to figure out what I want to grow next year. My freezer is still full and I have an abundance of sauce, powder, jellies and purée. I think once the holidays have passed I will figure it out and get going. Good luck!

Lol I have quite a few bags in the freezer too. I'm hoping to bust the smoker out one night this weekend and smoke a bunch of them for some more powders and purees.

You still have plenty of time to figure out your grow. I just had time and I was seperating seeds out for a couple of trains, so I figured why not. Might get some trades going too

. Thanks for stopping by Growdown Champ!

big list, here's to hoping you can keep track of all of em :drunk:

Ozzy2001 · Dec 3, 2015

Should be good. Had about 90 plants last year. Less varieties this year though.

Great List!! The Early Jalapeno is one of my favourite Jalapeno- Peppers. Great heat and sets a lot of peppers!
And you got another one of my favourites as well: The Aji Pineapple. Great, very freh, taste and huge harvests!

All the very best for 2016 ... great list looking forward to your grow Ozzy

Ozzy2001 · Dec 4, 2015

Thanks guys.
Meteora you should try the Aji mango if you haven't. Very good too.

Trident...I may add a few more scotch bonnets if I can get them.

Looks great Ozzy. I'll be dropping MOA red (pods from Wicked Mike) and JPGS seeds in the Scorched train. Have a feeling I'm not the only one who'll contribute those. Shoot me a PM if you just want to get it directly from me.

Awesome...I was hoping one of the trains I was in would have them. Anything in particular you'd like to see in the train?

CheriLBW · Dec 4, 2015

Nice list.
Flavor wise I am finding I like the Aji peppers. Maybe next year I will add the mango and pineapple.
Best of luck with the 2016 grow.

I have a buttload of both of those seeds if you want some. Just send a PM. They're both super productive.

Not that I'd expect to get them all but these are most appealing.

Biker Billy Jalapeno (Buckeye)
Aji Mango (Judy)
Chocolate Scotch Bonnet (Judy)
Chocolate Bhut
Peach Bhut SS (Judy)
Peach Fatallii (OCDChuck)
Mystery Wine (JHP)

Still upset at myself for not growing jalapeno last year. 80 plants you'd figure I'd have room for one. Also curious if Judy's chocolate scotch is much different than a hab. Mystery Wine looks great too

Some of those I just ordered or haven't grown out yet. Others will be on the train. I'll PM you later when I get home.

I've got some different Thais--they're more of a Birdseye Thai, about 1.5" long when ripe (longer when green, weirdly) and sweet-hot. Is that what you're looking for? They're pretty productive reds, small plant. I'd be interested in MOA yellows.

Ozzy2001 · Jan 6, 2016

I started 24 different varieties the other night, so I'm just waiting for some taproots before I drop them in some dirt. Starting with the Chinese seeds first since they take the longest to spit out some pods. Once I get through all the Chinese, I'll move on to the Aji's, Pubes, and Annums. I'm excited to have some pepper seedlings going again. The hardest part right now though is going to be formalizing a final grow lists, if that's even possible. I've already done quite a few trades and the trains are moving through.

I'll need to sit down and figure out if I want to make the plot I used last year bigger or add another one. Pretty sure I'm going to add at least one smaller one for some other vegetables. Weed control will get a little more attention this year as well. Last year the weeds were absolutely out of control. It was partly all the June rain we had last year that helped them grow. Once they did, they just kept on seeding out more. It was a vicious cycle that never ended. I have some weed barrier that I will put down. I was just ~~too lazy~~ too excited last year to take time to put it down.

Curious where you are getting the Dragon Thai seeds... Are those pulled from a Bonnie plant?

Ozzy2001 · Jan 6, 2016

It wasn't a Bonnie, but was from a local nursery.

Great list and cool looking overwinters.... good luck with the grow!
