Only started two plants this season, both
wild varieties. Pequin 'Uvalde' from @CraftyFox,
and Wiri-Wiri yellow, from @Wiriwiri. Thanks to
both. 60% for the Uvalde, 80% for the Wiri-Wiri.

Good to read that here! I noticed something similar a couple of times with seeds that i almost gave up on. I started bringing down temperature, removing covering lids and letting them dry out a bit and all of a sudden hooks everywhere.

Almost time for some Eshbaughii magic
Grabbed some phone snaps, proper kit next time.
Some perfect C eshbaughii. The trichomes don't lie. You have a pack on its way to you with wild collected berries inside. Maybe that stockier, more purple stemmed phenotype will be in there as well for you to compare. You got these from Fowler right?
Capsicum geminifolium
The best freebies with orders, everyone else throws in a random superhot
My CAP still hasn't germinated. It's been almost 5 weeks. The suspence is killing me.
I'll keep the pots in the propagator for the time being, let's see what magic might happen.
I'm not sure of this will be a successful project, so I'm sowing another wild later tonight. I hope I can stay in this thread with this specific wild, as it's a bit of an ugly duckling. It's the Peruvian wild tomato, the Solanum peruvianum. I got it as a freebie from a Dutch pepper lover that also had a nifty collection of pepper seeds.
Let me know what the hive mind decides. Is this a strict pepper only thread, or are we inclusive in the broader spectrum of wilds?

Now it's like a Tess-la: lots of promises, but nothing concrete.
I prefer OnlyPeppers. But if there is an OnlyWilds (non-peppers), I will certainly visit as well
Peeps, I'm running high on adrenaline. Guess what happened? About 40 days after sowing the seeds and following the advice of @Pr0digal_son (turning of heat for a few days, watering everyone and everything but these seedlings and then cranking up the heat again), I have two seedlings and one hook. 
The rush is HUGE! Maybe even GINORMOUS if I'm honest.
Don't mind the quality of the picture, just look at those promising green specs:

That’s what I thought a zillion times the past month.
I know right? How did this happen?Way to go Ratatouille!
C.flexuosum plants meet -5C windchill.
They weren't bothered, thawed a bit and looking fine.
Not sure how much colder it got after those pictures above but somewhere in the -6 to -10C range when all the leaves dropped. Left them outside all winter. The one in the big airpot has already decided it wants another season
How are everyone's wilds doing?

My plants don't look the greatest but they survived the onslaught of rain we've had here in California recently.
On a side note, I'm looking for some C. Lance cuttings if any one can help out.

Good stuff @Portuge! That branching on your rhomboideum looks awesome!
I didn't start any new lanceolatum this season, but I have a couple lanceolatum coming out of OW in a month or so. I could take a shot at cuttings from some new growth if you're still in the market when the time comes. I'm afraid it would be close to 3 months though for the plants to be released from the garage, generate enough new growth for cuttings, and then root in. Maybe someone else around here could hook you up sooner.

Thank you in no rush at the moment. Can also give it a go with fresh pods or seeds in the future. As for the Rhomb, it grew like shutes all over the place.

I do have lanceolatum seeds, but I've misplaced them within the last couple weeks and and I'm not sure when they'll turn up. Either way, happy to help if I can.
My Rhomb's always want to grow straight up in a single stem and it's hard to convince them differently. It would be cool to see one all bushed-out in laterals with those yellow flowers, throughout.
