SKULLBIKERS 2019 Container and Kratky GLOG

I am starting an indoor grow experiment so I might as well start the new years glog at the same time. Today I threw 3 seeds in the dirt(hoping for 66% germination). I will keep 1 in dirt and 1 in Kratky. These will stay in my grow room under my 8000K T8 shoplights from the beginning through fruit.

I wish now that I had moved here 45 years ago! As far as the jungle, I just have to keep the bugs at bay. The really big army worms are voracious basterds. I had one clean off a 2 ft broccoli plant in one night, just the stalk was left.

I have always said that bugs, pests and diseases are
a trade-off for the beautiful weather.  I guess every
growing area has its own cross to bear    :D   
 
Good luck adapting to the exterminator role!

That picture gives me the chills - reminds me of a high school summer job I had painting those f'ing things. I spent more time scrubbing the rust off and putting protective sealer than I did actually painting. Not fun with the sun beating down on a hot container - the paint dried almost instantly so getting a nice finish was a nightmare.

The one in the pic could use a fresh coat. Since your the only one here with experience your hired. Would u prefer to be paid in fresh or dried pods?
 
Since I have more soil to use I decided to go through my old seeds and plant a few more. Check out the country of origin on the Primo Jalapenos, no wonder they were always so good.

I have a neighbor that says he has a friend who will eat any pepper pod you give him..........still looking for any remaining Brainstrain seeds but I think I may have used them up a couple of years ago. I have not seen anyone eat those straight and not get all watery eyed.

It doesn't take a BrainStrain to get me
all watery eyed!
 
Have fun with those. I would love to
see some 17-inch Big Jims!

I have even had a few of those surprise jalapenos that get me watery eyed. I grew those World Record Big Jim seeds two seasons a few years ago, best I got was 9 - 10 inches long. If they germinate I can see what they do in this climate.

Every one has their special crossed peppers, I think I have a Cherry Bomb X Jalapeno cross..........a JALABOMB! [emoji15][emoji122][emoji106]
 
So I have been just kind of watching the current round of plants growing away out behind the garage finally beginning to form some good looking peppers and figured.... why not start a few more for a nice early spring run. I have the containers and the soil so here is the list for round 2 that I just planted today.(with a plan to reincarnate ERNEST BORG 9!)
