"Welcome to the New Year/ New Season!"

 

[PaulG]

Do you notice that the SPO is growing better for you this year than last, Paul?  The original seeds I got before last season were a bit challenging. Germ rates were a little low and my 2 plants were slow out of the gate.  I was hoping that G2 seeds/plants would be stronger and yours looks like it's thriving.  I didn't start a new one this season, but I kept my better of two plants OW.  Looking at yours maybe I should have started fresh!

All the Rocotos are doing better this year,
thanks to no aphids so far! This plant is
super robust, and is trying to outgrow
the Tatiana Yellow! I hope your SPO OW
does well for you this season.
 
 
 
 
“Sunny and dry few days coming up!”

 

[PaulG]

Look'n real nice!
looks like your hardening off is going better than mine. I could you use a week of cloud cover let let mine catch up. I feel like mine all jumped in to the fire when I transferred in to the greenhouse.

That is the dilemma with a greenhouse -
keeping it cooler in the hot weather.

 

[PaulG]

Chinenses in the greenhouse want to start producing...
 
Yellow Scorpion:

 
Red CARDI Scorpion:

 
The Chili Costa Rica (c. frutescens) wants in on the action:

 

[PaulG]

Annuums and Baccatums hardening off a bit:

Tall plant in the back is the Tasmanian Black,
flanked by two Orange Spice Jalapeños. Sugar
Rush Red and two Aji Strawberry Drop in front.

 

[Bou]

It seems that your TB plant is showing the correct pheno, lanky and very similar to what I got last year. Time will tell how mine will turn but the cotyledons are pitch black and quite small compared to my 2020 seedlings...
 
Healthy looking plants too btw, good job bro!

Correct, SB. The Tasmanian Black is the tallest in
the grow. Pushing 2' right now in a 2-liter container,
beautiful purple flower. I'll post a pic below.

Beth Boyd SB and Fatali in the back row.
Wiri-Wiri triplets and single plant at the
ends of the front row, Trippaul Threat F9
in the middle.

 
Here you go, Bou. A very robust specimen, indeed!
Is there a backstory on this variety? 

 
Aji Strawberry Drop sets its first pod:

I've searched for more infos about its origin (parents, current generation, creator, etc.) but unfortunately I haven't found much yet...

Sugar Rush Red. Check out the long calyx teeth:

 

[Plantguy76]

 
Six seeds germinated! That's good.
I hope the peach color holds for you.
 
How many seeds did you drop?

I dropped them all think it was ten or so
I recently now have seven of them

 

[PaulG]

Good job, Jason! Seven plants is awesome.
 
Chili Costa Rica starting to set bunches of flowers:

 

[PaulG]

Trying to find spots to harden off
plants is a challenge:

Two c. galapagoense and a Variegated Jalapeño
with no variegation.

 

[OCD Chilehead]

Good to see your still at it. Plants looking really good.

Thanks, my friend. Good to see you on
the forum this season. Looking forward
to see a knockout grow from you this year!

Thanks Paul.

Life has been busy the past few years with family illness. Me and my son have about 10 Sadabahar plants going right now. It’s something, but nothing epic. We will get what we need for seasoning. His plants are doing way better than mine. Lol

Take care, enjoy the day and talk with later.

Hey, buddy, sorry to hear that. I hope you are
past all that and that your family is okay. 
 
Never heard of the Sadabahar before, will have
to check that out.
 
You take care, my friend, don't be a stranger!

 

[PaulG]

Getting close to the 12-week mark, so a few group
shots. Will try to post better photos in a few days.
 
First a look at the baccatums. All three are setting pods
in true baccatum style. First, the two Aji Strawberry Drops:

 

 
Sugar Rush Red with the toothy calyx:

 

[PaulG]

Everything back in the greenhouse for a few days
of cooler, wetter weather. Pretty crowded.
 
Front tray - mix of Yaki Blue Fawn, JA Red Habs, and a Cardi Red Scorpion.
Middle tray - Trippaul Threat.
Back tray - Wiri-Wiri, Fatali, Beth Boyd, and Yellow Scorpion:

 
Front tray - annuums, back tray - Purple thunder:

 
Four Papa Dreadies and a Chili Costa Rica:

 
Full greenhouse - Wilds and Baccatums in the middle:

 

[PaulG]

The Rocotos are just kind of biding their time 
until plant-out or potting up.
 
Front, Tatiana Yellow. Back, Ecuador Sweet Red flowering:

 
Under the T12's on the workbench - Montufar, Peruvian
Red, San Pedro Orange, and two c. galapagoense:

Looking great!
