Peter S - 2017 grow

Here's my grow so far for this year. I started these early January. The large peppers in the basement are over winters. I'm trying to get my grow down, to around half (or a little more) than last year. I'm hoping this will be more manageable and less wasted peppers  My grow methods this year will be Kratky (fill and forget and static nutrient level systems), self watering containers (diy earthboxes), and grow bags with potting mix on drip system fed with Master Blend. Also will continue to run some indoor hydro using DWC and sprayaponic methods. All my peppers will be fed with mix of MasterBlend, Magnesium Sulfate and Calcium Nitrate.
 
Here're my overwinters, hard to distinguish from this angle, but the back left is Jamaican Hot Chocolate, back right is Yellow Chiltepin, front left is Thai Dragon and right is Tien Tsin.
 

 
Peppers in AeroGarden Bounty. Back center is D3's Aji Painapple f2, front right is Yellow Dystopia, back left is Sugar Rush Peach and in front of that a 7-Pot Primo. Of all my AeroGarden peppers, the Painapple will stay in the bounty, and everything else will be transplanted to something else.
 

 
In the foreground here on right is Brazilian Red Olive, and beside it is a Reaper x Moruga f3. AeroGarden has a Cereja da Amapa, Andy's King BOC, Chocolate Unreaper, Aji Charapita and 7-Pot Chaguanas Yellow.
 

 
A bunch here included in my grow list below.
 

 
New low-pressure aeroponic/sprayaponic/soakaponic system with a Helios Hab, and beside it in cups are D3's El Scorponero f2, Puerto Rican Yellow and Peach Moruga Scorpion.

WOW! Your plants look FANTASTIC, Peter! Awesome job! Still waiting to get a single ripe pod, up here in New England hahaha

Thanks Mike! Hopefully you won't have to wait much longer for ripe pods.

 

[Peter S]

Amazing plants that are just loaded Peter. You sure have the magic touch.
Datil looks super productive and your yellow Dystopia is one of the best gnarly looking phenos I have seen. Great work buddy.

Thanks Sim! I really love the Datil. I tried some the other day and it was very sweet/fruity with good habaneroish level heat. The Yellow Dystopia is becoming my favorite superhot yellow. Seems like the burn lasts and lasts and lasts.

Very nice Peter !    

Thanks Frank!

Yes, it does have a citrusy kind of taste. I have a review I did on the pod I got these seeds out of. Jedi Sushi sent me that pod.

Some stunning colours in that haul Peter.
Nice Datil and the not 7 pot Olive, good harvest.

Hope to send a sfrb here early next week. Most the crosses are ripening. just waiting on a few. 

 

[Superhot Sim]

Great video as always Peter and a nice haul of some ripe peppers.
Your plants are mega loaded buddy, is that your climate or do you feed heavy in the wick systems?
Look huge plants as well, great growing my friend. [emoji106]

Thanks Sim! We do have a good climate here. For my wick systems I use what dyna-gro recommends for non-circulating hydro which is 1 tsp/gallon. But I also use that strength in my low-pressure aeroponic bucket and it seems to do fine there too.

Your season is finishing off in great form, Peter!
 
Have you grown Datil before?  I found them to be
hotter than blazes
