PaulS Glog MMXV - Plant Outs :)

It's finally time to start the 2015 season :)

It's my first time doing a season glog but it's my sixth year growing chillies. I've learnt so much from reading this website and the knowledgeable people on it. The last couple of years have been pretty successful, so hopefully this year will be the best year yet.

I'm growing nothing that I've grown before so it should all be a nice surprise.

No hooks or any signs of life as I'm writing this on the 20th Jan!
 
Ditto Ania; your plants are super healthy looking.  It doesn't look
like the 4˚C in the conservatory is hurting them too much.  How
warm does it get in the daytime?
 
Paul ditto the above ... phenomenal colour your "Pink Tiger" and to be honest I grow a lot in soil however I never get too technical with it ... only really monitor PH in hydro ... what soil medium are you using ... really recommend a Dutch organic soil called "BioBizz" most hydroponic shop sell it

That sounds just about perfect, Paul.
 
Keep up the good work!
 
Long time with no update! The weather has been awesome between 15c - 20c no clouds :)

Thanks for looking :)
 
 
 
 
 
The sun is really showing off those plants, Paul.  
Everything looks so robust and healthy!
 
It sure looks snug in there, the plant being all cuddled up together. Should be close to plant out for you guys. I seem to recall that spring is by far the best season (in terms of sunny weather) in the UK.

The last few years spring, well april/may has been awesome, april this year has been ok, I'll probably plant out in the next few weeks.
What about you? Whereabouts are you in sweden? I have a good friend in Halmstad.
 
I'm from a place called Örebro, it's just above the two big lakes (or parallel to Stockholm ish - just a bit more inwards). Quite some distance from Halmstad, although I think my aunt lives there. 
 
I used to live in London, I remember the weather being beautiful in spring whilst I was stuck in the library studying for exams. Come summer and all that lovely weather was gone.

Yeah that seems to be the norm!
Although we had a really nice summer the last two years.

Just got caught up on the Glog. Nice plants. They look very happy. Beautiful Bonchi's as well. How old are your Bonchi's?
Thanks dude. The bonchi on the right is a three year old plant the others are from last year. I'm looking forward to some flowers soon :)
 
Peter S said:
Your plants are looking great Paul! They're about to bust out of that grow box. :)
Thanks Peter. I've actually had to take a few out as they got too tall! I'm hoping to repot lots over the weekend, I'll try and post some photos
