looks good Jim

i cant remember but did a few of them come from me?
was just wondering
that's a really nice list

thanks your friend Joe

 

[millworkman]

Thats a good list! Good luck and post some PICTURES. We love pictures.

 

[ajijoe]

yeah pics would be great!!

 

[PaulG]

Over 50 varieties? Sounds like a serious grow to me!
Good luck, bro!

 

[Spicegeist]

will be interesting to see how your overwintered butch t compares in pod production to the rest from seed...

 

[Roguejim]

Thanks everyone for the encouragement. Pics to come.

No Ajijoe, no seeds of yours.

Spicegeist, the butch t is in the living room window. It has become a house plant! I've already had to prune it back a second time, and spray for aphids. It is thriving. I'll post a pic.

Here's a pic of the over wintered Butch T. Treat 'em like a houseplant! (not sure I posted the pic correctly...)

Nice selection

 

[Roguejim]

I sowed the chinense seeds on 1/13. I'm using a 9x13" sheet cake pan w/plastic lid for the mini-greenhouse. It holds 28 peat pellets, just what I need, more or less.

1/16, and I have my first sprout...Assam Bhut (closest). The other sprout is the Bahamanian Goat which appeared today, along with 2 Fatalis and 1 Thai.

This is my germination set-up. Emergency blankets for reflective walls. The chamber will hold ~28, #1pots, tightly. Any ideas what to do with the floor in the event of water leaking? Maybe a tarp?

I will be using a 50/50 mix of these two products below.

Thanks for looking!

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

Looking good. Use bud an bloom. Hella better.

 

[Roguejim]

I'm going to have to resort to Solo cups for the rest of the plants. Not enough room under two, 2-bulb fluoros for 28 #1 pots when the lights have to be this close. Shouldn't be a problem once I can raise the lights a bit from the plants. I should have figured this out before...dumb...

Potted today, 1/20:

Assam Bhut
Bahamian Goat
Scorp Yellow
Thai I
Fatali Red
Fatali Yellow
Jamaican Mushroom

 

[Roguejim]

Alright, I corrected my previous blunder, and replanted the seedlings to Solo cups. Makes a lot more sense now looking at it. Whew!!! I'm thirsty...

(For those interested, that's a home brewed pilsener.)

 

[Sanarda]

Looks really good so far. I too am having a issue trying to figure out my lighting/grow space setup. It's trial/error trial/success.

 

[Roguejim]

All seeds were planted 1/13. All peat pellets produced at least 1 seedling by 1/23. At first I thought my germination rates weren't too good after looking at logchief's grow log (his rates seem really high). So, I went into the basement and took a count of my plants. Looks like my rates weren't as bad as I had originally thought. Out of 28 peat pellets, each planted with 3 seeds, 20 pellets produced at least 2 seedlings, the other 8 pellets producing only 1. But, these other 8 may still produce other seedlings now that they are under the fluoros. Several of my pellets didn't germinate the second and third seedlings until I put them under lights. Now I'm wondering if the lights made a difference in germination, or if the second and third seedlings would have sprouted anyway given a little more time in the propagation tray(cake pan), which only got indirect light from a window.

 

[FireEater101]

Looks like a good setup to me!! Your growlist looks really nice as well!! Oh and nice glass of Pilsner you got there too..really nice and clear...nice work!! Homebrewer here as well i hope everything germinates well for you!!

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

Nice list and start, good luck in 2013!

 

[Roguejim]

I guess this over wintered Butch T from last season is part of my 2013 grow log, my first and only plant I grew in 2012. Since it's been inside, it's been attacked twice by aphids. I used Organocide 3-in-1 Garden Spray, and it failed miserably. Very short term results. So, when Butch got attacked a third time a few days ago, I went to the nursery and came home with Captain Jack's Deadbug by Bonide. The active ingredient is spinosad. Overnight results were excellent. We'll see.

Killa list and super start, best of luck in 2013 grow
