Thank goodness for the feeling that spring should be right around the corner. I can't deal with another foot of snow and these 50+ degree (F) days have been wonderful.
Anyway, this year's peppers should be much more abundant this year thanks to PepperLovers pleasant selection and the few I dehydrated for this year's crop. Both have yeilded at or new 100% germination without presoaking or special songs or chants. Jusr plop in the dirt and leave em be under the couch for a week.
And now, after nearly 2 months, they're looking great. I got impatient and set up my christmas present greenhouse in my computer/dog room.
Anytime the house feels a little cold I just have to stick my head in this and enjoy the heat. I just need a more permanent location for the fan to keep the air moving.
And here's the peppers.
The Purple Jolokias have been growing like weeds. The left one started growing up into the lights before I could get the new pots ready. But, for now he's a little crooked.
My first collection.
Bih Jolokia, Dorset Naga, Bhut Jolokia Indian Carbon, Scorp Butch T, Scorp Yellow, Scorp Red, Early Jalapeno, Giant Jalapeno, Sweet Cayenne, Tabago Seasoning, Indian PC, Chili de Abro, Bombay Morich, Yellow 7, Hab Red, Hab Orange, Red Savina, Bhut Jolokia Brown, PI 260595, Bhut Jolokia, Jamacain, Lemon Drop, Tabasco
And lastly, pretty much all the same as above with some tomatoes included. I hab my 12 yr old nephew do these ones since he's really into gardening now too. All but the PI260595 have germinated and I killed some of the tomatoes (whoops).
Here's to spring. Get here soon!
