glog Terravexti's 2014 GLOG- First pods of the year!

Most of the varieties i'm growing this year are new to me. I need to give Pepperlover (Judy), alot of credit and other THP members for forcefully exspanding my pepper consciousness by sending me extra seeds that I would never would have thought to grow. I grow peppers on a fairly small scale, but each year it is my intension to a grow really awsome specimen of each variety.

My 2014 list so far (I will be adding more). I started three seeds for each pepper on 1/9/2014

Scotch Bonnet MoA (STEVE954)                                                       1/15, 1/15,1/19
Scotch Bonnet x 7 pod Jonah (kingdenniz) planted 1/31                    2/8,2/11
Aji Chuncho planted 2/14
 
I put these seeds in wet starter plugs that are in a 72 cell tray with a  humidity dome and heat mat set on 85f. As they germinate I will move the seedlings to a 72 cell tray under two T8's with 6500k tubes. I like leaving the seedlings in the humidity dome until they shed there helmets. At first I will keep the lights on 24/7, but when I transplant the seedlings into solo cups I will cut the lights back to 16/8. I'm using Fox Farm  Ocean Forest for soil for the starts.

Here are some of the seeds


Grow room before


Grow Romm after


 
 
All of my plants are now putting out their first pods of the year! After staring a steady dose of Tiger Bloom, the babies are making babies of their own.

Cumari P. really filling out

Nice to see some pods there...
Yhea finnally. I havn't had as much time this year to give to my plants due to a heavy work load. This year has been the latest in years getting to the first round of chilies. I really like the looks of my over wintered reaper, so I'll be doing alot more overwintering this off season.
Hey geist, do any of your choco bhuts pods look like mine when young and green?
 
My first ripe chile of the year as well as my very first fatali

 

This thing was brutally hot! I think Fatali peppers are supers as well as related to Bhuts in some way.
