rhm3769's 2014-in the ground!

So I'm setting aside 12 plants to attempt an overwintering.... looking at having 45 plants for 2014....
Plants I'm overwintering, 4 unlabelled supers that didn't produce, pimenta de neyde, purple flash, butch t, two unlabelled ornamentals from ajijoe, another unlabelled ornamental and pequin.
I have 11 varieties I'm waiting on from a sasbe offer here: super chili, aji pineapple, bishops crown, brazilian starfish, 7-pot jonah, datil, chocolate hab, f2 yellow fatali x red savina, and three wilds, c04392, c01225 and tc07246.

I have seeds saved from my last two seasons for orange manzano, rocoto amarillo, an okinawan variety, white habanero, golden habanero, tazmanian habanero, scotch bonnet, jamaican mushroom, yellow fatali, serrano, santa fe grande, aji limon and a few others.... I have to narrow down what I'm growing from my saved seeds....

Raised beds same as last year, about 4'x4', 9 plants per bed.... thinking I'm gonna go back to miracle gro, my first season in 1 gallon containers with miracle gro was better than this last one with fish emulsion and seaweed extract in raised beds....
 
I had them at the old house, too.... but it wasn't as big of a problem.... maybe its just because the new house has been empty a bit and the back patio aeea wasn't used....

Took measurements today, its 11'x12'.... awesome....
 
Working on the culling of some of the seedlings.... gonna start putting the 5 overwinters in the ground.... they're surviving in solo cups, no reason they can't survive in the ground....
 
12 black widows. ... 12....
12 black widows. Ah ah ah....
11 black widows. ah ah ah....
10 black widows. Ah ah ah....
9 black widows. Ah ah ah....
 
Took a break from messing with the plants.... homework and finishing organizing everything from the move...
Got a few more varieties to sow since I didn't get to keep everything in the move as I planned....
At least want to get a scotch bonnet and serrano going....
 
Pest control is coming by today to spray for spiders.... gave up on stomping them, there's a new one every night it seems like....

Gonna attempt to get m y saved overwinters in the ground today....
Fatali, pimenta de neyde, butch t and two mystery supers. ...
 
Dead black widows.... whether they were real ones or just spiders that are black witb the red hourglass or not, it doesn't matter....
Took this last night, one of 9....
Today is the first time I've seen the dead ones after they spray for them.... but the hiding spots are more accessible at this house....
 
Seedlings spent their first night outside without issues.... it was 52 at midnight and 50 at sunrise....
Losing a few.... saw a thread a few days or so ago about yellowing seedlings and brown tips on cotlydons, looks similar to the few of mine I'm losing.... they're culling themselves for me.
 
one of the mystery supers.... that pod has been there since I pulled it in december....
