SKULLBIKERS Fun with peppers in 2021 GLOG

And so it begins, another year of growing some peppers. This will be a sort of continuation of last year

as several of those plants are still going(and many got whacked and ended up on the burn pile). 
 
Anyway, I have 3 trays of peppers sown and many have germinated already(mostly annums). I wanted to compare several different jalapeños for taste in real time. This tray is all jalapeños, ten types from 7 different vendors. The seeds in block 3 are from 2014.
 

 
Another tray with annums at each end and mostly rocotos in the middle(and they're taking their sweet time).

Thanks, and I hate to say it but I'm only about 1/4 done potting out. So far everything is looking pretty good for seeds hitting the dirt Dec. 23.

Pot - O - Chichimeca Jalapenos
 

 
When I think of it, I may start adding descriptions to the plant out pics.
 
70 days. Capsicum annuum. (F1) The plant produces heavy yields of large 3 ¾" long by 1 ½" wide hot peppers. Peppers are medium hot, have thick flesh, and turn from green to red when mature. The plant has green stems, green leaves, and white flowers. A Jalapeno type pepper most often used when green. Excellent in salsa, salads, vegetable dishes, and making hot pickled peppers. An excellent choice for home gardens, farmer’s markets, market growers, open production, and commercial production. A variety from the USA. Disease Resistant: PVY. Scoville Heat Units: 3,500.
 
I think I originally picked this variety because of the disease resistance. If the taste good, all the better!

And from the frost bitten branches comes new life.

How long until all danger of frost has disappeared?

Nowadays its the roll of the dice....

Good question, I’m fairly sure we are now beyond any more chance of frost. My neighbor said this was the first frost by us in 6 or 8 years.

And when it comes to gardening, I’m a gambling man!

 

[skullbiker]

I've got a good start on potting out.

It does look like there could be a loaded jalapeno party in the not to distant future, maybe even smoked ones.

 

[PaulG]

I'm going to show my plants those pictures
so they know what to do.

I started the process today of trying to get it all organized, a long way from being done. I have 36 containers with peppers in and a lot left to pot out, plus 18 containers with tomato plants, and then all the other stuff that is in my growing other GOLOG.

You've got that "$h1t, I have too many plants!" moment?

You've got that "$h1t, I have too many plants!" moment?

No sir, I don’t know if I ever have too many plants! Having the time to attend to them seems to be the eternal problem!
