RYMERPT 2015 "BUCKET LIST" grow log

This ladies and gentlemen will be my second year growing peppers. A big shoutout to my friends that have helped me on this journey. Mike, Jojo, Rocketman, Spork, Hogleg, Sicman, SORRY IF I FORGET TO MENTION YOU. These folks and the entire THP community has made me what I am in the pepper world. I have grown 20+ plants on a small appartment balcony and had decent success. My list for 2015 is still up in the air right now, but soon to be. Trying to talk the wife into letting me start the seeds inside before Christmas.

Thank you for that. Actually made me laugh out load.
 
Think I'm gonna pop a jar of those tommarow and see how the turned out.

Went to the nersury today and got some bloom fert.

Was gonna do something to try to get myplants to grow better. Was even thiking of pulling them and amending the soil them replanting them.

Nersury guy tells me that this late in the season I might just be out of luck and that pulling them would likely shock them. He says to wait it out, but don't expect much out of this year due to my having nearly thrown them into a dorment stage when I had them in storage and that it is so late in the season.

I do have that new mature ghost that has flowers and a pod, so maybe the season won't be a total loss. And for that matter, maybe my others will have late crops.

Kinda bummed.
 
Here is photographic evidence that my plants are tiny:

My best plant is the store bought ghost with only one pod

A couple others, but all stunted, runted, and just pitiful.

Yesterday I get a pm that someone wanted my address. It seems they had won some pods and wanted to gift me their winnings. They also stated they wanted to send me some of their own crop due to the fact that my season has been nearly a bust. PEPPER PEOPLE ARE THE BESTEST!!!!!

Reapers then I think the rest on the top are 7 pot orange and Bahamian goat. If one is sweet, that is a Trinidad perfume.

Next row choc hab, Pimenta de Neyde, and the small white are habanero Cristina and the small yellow are Cumari.

Bottom row. MOA and red but.
