STB's Kiwi Grow 2015/2016

This year I've started a whole bunch of seedlings about mid June, then some more in July and August:

• Reaper
• Choc Brazilian Ghost
• Red Moruga
• 7 Pod Douglah
• Peach 7 Pod
• Devil's Heart
• Devil's Brain
• Peach Hab
• Defcon 7
• 7 Pod Primo
• Dorset Naga
• Aji Pineapple
• Aji Habanero
• Aji Verde
• Hot Beads

Also growing out a couple of hybrids, and have my own F1 hybrid plant that I'm hoping to get some pods off.
 
All up there are about 80 seedlings, have put aside about 30 plants to sell at my daughter's school fundraiser, so the rest will be planted out.
 
Have just brought 700L (185 u.s. gallons) of potting mix (50% potting mix, 40% large pumice sand, 10% chicken manure), also have about 10 more 50L growbags from last year, so plenty of space to plant everything out.

I love this thread.  Day of the Triffids - chilli style.  Looking good mate.

Getting quite a few ripe pods now, the biggest pink tiger went red after a few weeks, might have to taste the purple ones and red ones and see if there any difference.
 
Outside temperature dropped down to freezing over teh past few nights, but the greenhouse temp hasnt gone below 10C (50F), although I've just added more bubble wrap to try and keep it above 15C.

I completely bubblewrapped the greenhouse a week or so ago, so far it seems to stay at 15C even when outside temp drops to 5, Today I upped the thermostat to 18C, will see whether the 400W heater will be enough. Hopefully all this insulation will be enough.
