SineNomine 2021

Hi all!

Although I'm pretty old around here, this will be the first Glog.

I have been growing peppers on the balcony since 2014. Last year I switched everything to hydroponics and I am very happy with it.



Here is the growing list:

Hanging pots:
- Fatalii 6
- Fatalii Red 2
- Yellow Devil's Tongue 1
- Papa Joe's SB 3
- Scotch Bonnet MOA 3
- Black River SB 1

Floor pots:
- Pimiento de la Puta la Madre 3
- Lemon Drop 2
- Chile Rayado 4
- Jalapeño M 4
- NuMex Vaquero 4
- Yellow Devil's Tongue 1
- Tepin x Lemon Drop 3
- "Aji Cito" (Panama) 1

Seedlings are growing nicely, Vivian.
 
Is that little hairy one a rocoto?
 
Thanks, Paul!
Next week I will move them to more distant trays. I will have to choose one plant for each netpot. That will be a little harder.
 
Regarding the rocoto. I think it's a focus error.
In the foreground with long roots is 6 day old Chile Rayado.
 
4 more appeared.
For about two days now, what appears is only for statistics. I have enough seedlings to choose the healthiest plants. Only one netpot out of 72 has no seedlings.

It's the highest germination rate I've ever had.  :woohoo:

Tent set-up is nice and tidy! Very nice
home for your seedlings/plants.
 
90% germination! Good work   :clap:
 
I used to transplant the seedlings after
the cotys turn green, but the last couple
of seasons have been waiting for two
sets of true leaves to come in. In the latter
case, I can transplant into larger containers.

Thanks, but we weren't asking about the transplant... i think... (my english is suck)
I put 2-4 seeds in each netpot because at least one will germinate. Now there will have to be only one plant left in each netpot. What would be the best time to choose which plant remains?
I let them grow or pull them out now?
 
Link still doesn't work for me.  Im sure its something on my end but I don't know what.  Things just seem to work differently (or not at all) in these parts! :cool:
