SineNomine 2022

It is time to start the new growth for 2022.
Link to my grow log 2021.

Last fall I kept a Tepin x Lemon Drop plant that I tried to grow as a bonchi. He's not the best candidate for that, but he looks pretty good. It even has a flower that seems to turn into a pod.

I will sow C. Chinense on February 20 and C. Annuum on March 6.

Here is the growth list:

Suspended pots:
- Fatalii - V1 2021 / Semillas - 3
- Fatalii - PaulG - 2
- Purple Thunder F4 yellow/caramel - PaulG / Pepper Guru - 2
- Trippaul Threat F3 yellow - PaulG - 1
- Papa Dreadie SB - Sawyer - 4
- Aji Jobito - Semillas - 3
- Farm Locoto - Samaipata - Pepper Guru -1 (Growdown Throwdown 2022) I hope the seeds arrive soon. The envelope has been sent for a month

Floor pots:
- Lemon Drop - V1 2021 / Semillas - 2
- Goliath Jalapeno - PaulG - 4
- Tasmanian Black - PaulG - 2
- Chilhuacle Negro - Semillas - 4
- Prik Khi Nu - Semillas - 2
- Ancho Mulato - Semillas - 3
- Tepin x Lemon Drop - V4 2021 / az1000 - 3

Growth will be hydroponic just like last year.

Understated just a tad, my friend

Goliath Jalapeno

Lemon Drop

Tasmanian Black. These peppers will be grown on my balcony every year from now on. They taste good, sweet, slightly smoky and are quite hot.

Prik Khi Nu it is 1.8 m high (~71 inches).

The first ripe Fatalii

And basil

Looks like you're doing great! My tasmanian black fruits are still as black as can be. I tried an unripe one yesterday. Completely green on the inside. Taste like beans with just a little heat that lingered for quite some time.

 

[SineNomine]

@MarcV, give them some time to turn red.

@SineNomine - Those Fatali plants look great,
Vivian! Looks like some decent sized pods on
them!

Thank you, @Tinkerbelle099 ! It's a great start!

Thank you, @PaulG !
Fatalii pods are large and begin to ripen.
I have not yet done a taste test to notice any differences between plants, but I will do it soon.

 

[SineNomine]

Vezena Piperka and Ancho Mulato had almost all the pods destroyed by BER.
This is the first time this has happened in my balcony garden. The other plants do not have such a problem.
I was lucky enough to pick some brown Ancho Mulato pods. I'll dry them.

 

[Tinkerbelle]

what's BER?

 

[PaulG]

@Tinkerbelle099 - Blossom End Rot.

 

[Tinkerbelle]

thank you muchly Paul
I thought it was some kind of beetle/earwig creepy crawly thing

 

[Sulsa]

That sucks! Any clue to what has caused it?
Luckely not all peppers have been affected.

 

[SineNomine]

As far as I know it is just a problem of calcium circulation in the plant.
All other plants are fine. Only Vezena Piperka and Ancho Mulato have this problem.

 

[Sulsa]

Some are more susceptible to it than others. Last year my open ground dulce de espagna had this a lot and the kapia right next to it had none. I did notice it appeared most often after some stressing like after they wilted from too much heat, irregular or overwatering.

 

[SineNomine]

Tasmanian Black. Beautiful red black colors.
It seems to me that they will be good made into powder. Someone? @PaulG !

@Tinkerbelle099 - Blossom End Rot.

Tomatoes are bad about that as well. The 2 ripening tomatoes I have had so far both suffered from it
