Here's my TikTok video updates for my Glog

I plan on restarting small. I ordered Chocolate Reaper seeds from Matt's Peppers (ETA Tuesday 2/14) and will be using my patio to grow the plants. I measured it out, and with the 5-gallon Home Depot buckets from my previous venture, I should have space for 24 on the balcony, using drip irrigators and a fertilizer injector.

I'll be sure to post up pics soon when I begin the seeding process.

Update 2/14/2025: Here's the first pics. Thanks to Matt's Peppers for the quick delivery and the freebies included in the package. I'll be starting my grow this year with Chocolate Reapers.

So.... I decided to call a mulligan on my most recent seed trays after the vast majority of the seedlings succumbed to sunburn.

That being said, I had enough remaining Chocolate Reaper seeds that I'll be starting two new trays. I've already got the seeds soaking, and tomorrow morning, I'll be planting them in starter soil and I'll be putting the trays outside from the get-go. That way, however many seedlings that do manage to sprout, will already get acclimated to the heat

Here's the seed trays outside on my south-facing balcony. I also put tape to prevent the lids from flying off, in the event that it got a little windy.

Careful. A south-facing balcony in FL sounds pretty hot to me. You don't want to steam your seeds, lol.

I made sure the trays were in an area that was shaded lol

In fact, unless the wind gets pretty bad, the area of the balcony they're in doesn't even get wet when it rains
