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.

Tentitive thoughts about grow list:

Purple jalapeno
Reaper
Ghost
Aji pineapple
Star fish
LemondropXtepin


Gonna try to get seeds planted soon.

Stay tuned.

This year I'm going as big as I can with the pots. My best luck was five gal bucket for my ghost.

 

[Rymerpt]

be a few weeks before my box heads your way. Waiting on some peppers to ripen and a paycheck to get here.

You sir are a really great guy! THANK YOU

 

[Rymerpt]

THANKS GUYS!!!!!

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.

Thanks D3monic!!



BTW FOLKS this is what D3monic sent me:

Some how it was messed with and arrived 20 peppers short.

Post offices suck sometimes, but PEPPER PEOPLE RULE!!!

 

[Rymerpt]

The first pepper of the season. Ghost on a plant bought mature from the nursery.


I'm gonna hug it and sqeeze it and call it Bob.

 

[Rymerpt]

no signs of flowers or peppers on any of my plants.  im really thinking of turning the soil and putting in a winter garden.

 

[tsurrie]

well that's too bad... how much till the end of the season there?

 

[Rymerpt]

It could go through October I would think, but I'm fed up.

 

[tsurrie]

Well yeah, same here. But they're growing ok, just hoping they'll ripe in time. If you'd be closer I'd send you some pods too.
But hey, next year you're gonna rock that space around your new home, am I right?

 

[Rymerpt]

Yes gonna do it right next year

I like when they turn red and are all corked up.

 

[hogleg]

I also grabbed you a pack of Ethiopian Browns if you want them?

I just went back and read my own glog. Wow what a year this has been. I've taken down the shade that I built, moved the store bought ghost to the porch and decided tofinnish out 2015 on the porch in buckets. What I still have (still trying to please):

1) bishops crown = very tall and lanky 3'?

2) store bought ghost = healthy, but nonproductive

3) tepin X lemondrop = some flowers and one good green pod

4) Aji lemon = some flowers and one green pod


There are still Casper, some tiny ghosts, and a couple reapers in the flowerbed,but they are looking stunted and PITIFUL.
