Hey all! Just wanted to post on my progress thus far this season, share my experiences, successes, failures, and ask a question or two. My list is as follows, including varieties at all levels of heat:
Red Marconi
Purple Marconi
Quadrato Di'Asti Gaillo
Quadrato Di'Asti Rosso
Sweet Yellow Stuffing
Jimmy Nardello
Anaheim
Poblano (KIA - ran out of room under the lights, had to move outside, lost all three seedlings)
TAM Jalapeno
Purple Jalapeno
Long Thin Cayenne
Golden Cayenne
Beaver Dam
Padrone
Fish Pepper
Cili Gorong
Jamaican Hot Yellow
Fatalli
7 Pod Jonah
Lemon Yellow Habanero
Orange Habanero
Red Habanero
Naga Jolokia
Bhut Jolokia
I started all of these in an APS selfwatering seedstarting tray with greenhouse cover. The model I have has 40 1"x1" cells, which I filled with a peat/perlite based sterile seedstarting mix. After sowing the seeds in moistened mix, I misted the surface twice daily, and, to prevent over watering, I did not put the styrofoam cell tray onto the wicking mat until several hooks started to develop. At that point I filled the reservoir with a dilute (1/4-1/3) solution of BioBizz Root Juice. After a majority of the seedlings developed the first two true leaves I potted up and I've since been using approx 1/4 strength (1/2 tbs/gal) Plant Health Care (PHC) for seedlings (6-12-6) combined with 1/4 strength (1/2 tbs/gal) BioBizz Root Juice and watering as seldom as possible, approx every four days so far.
Here is my indoor setup, includes four 4-foot flouro bulbs, two are standard and two are grow/aquarium bulbs, on timer at 14/10 right now:
Purple Marconi (2), Jimmy Nardello (2), Purple Jalapeno (3), Golden Cayenne (6), and two eggplants:
7 Pod Jonah, Beaver Dam, Hab Red, Padrone (2), Cili Gorong (2), Fatalli (2):
Hab Orange, Quadrato Rosso, Bhut Jolokia (2), Jamaican Hot Yellow (2), Fish (2), Naga Jolokia (2), Purple Jalapeno:
