That's true but it would be great if everything does turn out good! Especially after such a terrible last season.

Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

So now that you have big plans for this season does that mean you have dropped her for your plants? Or you can handle both of them at once

Nah she won't be dropped. Rather she will be INVOLVED!
Everyones happy then
She loves growing as well so i am lucky there!
Well that's good then, at least you have help and someone not complaining about your hobby.
Here are some updated photos- 15 days after planting.
The one in the blue pot was started at the same time as the hydro one so just put it next to it so you can see the size difference.
Here is the original photo of the hydro plant (15 days ago)
when it was in there for about a week
Here are the other ones that I have put outside. They are growing nicely.

Looking good, Candice! 
Are you getting much sun over there? It's been cloudy as here the past week and they reckon rain, rain, rain starting on the weekend and into next week. Definitely not good as some of my little guys have already outgrown my humble little grow light and are really depending on the sun now.

What are you going to do through winter with no light or warmth
The ones in the blue pot outside have actually been moved to the hothouse (where I will also be doing the second lot of hydro with no artificial light) and I close the doors up at night. Not sure how warm it is in there though, but I'm sure it is helping. My other plants that I have left outside are still ok but they are more mature. When I get around to it I will look into a heater for the hothouse. Anyone got ideas on what would be the cheapest to run?
Good question! From the start, my plan has just been to wing it and hope for the best!
I guess I have just been hoping it was going to be a nice sunny winter so I could have my little guys out during the day and then bring them in at night.....

Is it usually sunny all year round in Brisbane? I think a few people have said to me that they can grow year round there?
If not how bout you just put them in the house under a fluoro. Maybe that might work, or at least they would be able to survive if not grow much???
Last night I sowed about 90 seeds into seed raising mix after soaking in Chamomile tea for a day. They are in my germination box which maintains about 27c-29c.
I chose mainly Chinense varieties.
Jaimca Scotch Bonnet
Aji Amarillo
Aribibi Gusano
Congo Brown
Limon
Trinidad Scorpion
Peruvian White Habanero
Fatalii
Peter Pepper Orange
Cochiti
Bishop's Crown
Naga Morich
Red Bhut Jolokia
Choc Bhut Jolokia
Red Habanero
Hot Cherry
Cayenne Gold
"Mystery Pepper" (was given to me I have absolutely no idea what it could be)
I'll be counting the days and recording the rates.

7 degrees here at the moment. Nearly 8 o'clock in the morning. Brrrrrr this shiznit i could do without!
The seedlings i have in the garage at home are doing pretty well just under a twin fluro setup, i think it's the Galapogeonese (sic) that's going off it's head way better than the other mostly Rocoto's. I may just put some more seeds into some pellets this afternoon, i may actually label them this time too!
