Roaster Dave's 2020 Glog

So this is my first attempt at logging a whole season of growing so we'll see how it goes.
 
I got started a bit late but got my seeds delivered yesterday and got to work right away.

I had read numerous posts on another forum about people germinating seeds in their Instant Pots using the yogurt setting. Well I gave it a try and was surprised that after 28 hours I have several seeds germinating. I plan on leaving it for another 10 hours.

Here's a list of what I'm starting with, focusing on Scotch Bonnets:
 
Scotch Bonnet Trinidad Red Pepper
Scotch Bonnet Brown Pepper
APS Scotch Bonnet Red Pepper
Scotch Bonnet Peach Pepper
Carolina Reaper Yellow x Scotch Bonnet Yellow Pepper
7-Pot Jonah Yellow x Scotch Bonnet Pepper
APS Ghost Pepper Orange Pepper
7-pot Crown Of Thorns Chocolate Pepper
Aji Ahuachapáu Pepper
 
 
 
 
Welcome to the 2020 season, Dave.
 
First time I have seen the insta pot idea. 
Very ingenious!
 
Good luck getting your season underway.
I like the emphasis on the bonnets  :thumbsup:

What settings are you using on the pressure cooker? Bold move. 
It has a yogurt setting that maintains a temperature of 110F and I set the timer for 48 hours. I only put 4-5 seeds of each variety in just in case.[emoji16]

So after 48 hours a few of the seeds have germinated and the rest are nice and plump and shouldn't be too far behind them. Now to plant them and put them on a heat mat and wait.
