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.

Visited my plants (in storage) today and watered them. CASPER is dropping leaves and looking kinda sad. The babies seem ok.

Pest inspection is Tuesday. Escrow to follow. Here are more pics. BUMP PLEASE

Big shed!!!

Sooooo excited!!!!!!

Concerned about Casper. Poor guy har lost most his leaves and seems like he is going into a dormant state or dying. The babies seem a bit less vibrant today. Look a bit yellow. Maybe I over watered a little last visit. No water today, but about two hours of sun for all. (Fingers crossed I don't loose them before I can move)

Pest report came back a bit bad. 5k in damages that needed attention. I work pest control so had my co-worker termite guy re-check things for us. He concluded that we could fix all for around 2k.

After big pow wow with my mom and family we have decided to bail on this house and try for another that needs less work.

This means more time in the hotel, but why compromise?

I'm good with the decission, yet anxious to find a GOOD home.

Found a baby sitter for the babies and Casper.

Loaded them up and took them to my wife's friend's place.

Trying for this one now:

A tad smaller, but great curb apeal.

She is gonna have a pest report this week and then we can proceed.

 

[Rymerpt]

She just called and said had pest guy come out today. He said he will have the report to her by Friday. She will email it to me. Things a rollin!

I like the looks of the first one, seems like you have more room for plants but the second one has some nice landscaping already in place.

I can already picture Manzanos growing under the tree in back.

 

[Rymerpt]

Pest report came back very good. Gonna make an offer. This one is it I think. Fingers crosssed,fingers crossed.

 

[Rymerpt]

Offer excepted!!!

She will be out by the end of May.

Decent space for peppers and good landscape.

Congratulations! I hope your mind is at ease. Now get them plants out of storage and into some light. LOL.

Great news. Congrats again.

Actually they would be still in storage, but my wife's friend is baby sitting them right now.

AWESOME RYME!!! Already has a couple garden beds set up and plenty of other spots, Suhweeeeet. Even looks like you have a fine little Hydrangea about to blow up out front. 
Stoked for ya Ryme, thats really cool.

 

[Rymerpt]

Got an email from my pepper babysitter. She says Casper has new leaves forming and is loving the sun. As for the babies we lost about eight, but the rest are thriving.
Seems things have all turned for the better.

 

[Rymerpt]

Here is a better pic:

 

[hogleg]

Is the Hydrangea in the ground or a pot? I wonder if its a purple one? I've seen some really psychedelic purple ones before.

 

[Rymerpt]

I think its in the ground.

 

[Rymerpt]

My plant babysitter says CASPER is showing new growth and seems happy.


Spoke with house seller today and she is packing and holding an estate sale this weekend. Sounds like things are moving right along.

EXCITING

All I can do now is chill and wait out the days.
