First Days of Germination

Posted by PaulG in Wandering the Capsicum Landscape, 29 January 2012 - - - - - - · 66 views
sprouts are a-poppin

1/28:

It turns out that the corrugated panels were too efficient. With domes on the germination trays, the temperatures were over 90F. With the lights at 3" from the soil surface and plastic domes on the trays, foil skirts with some air circulation seems to keep everything nice and warm - mid 80"s - and the soil mixes moist. So far the...

At this moment there are 9 plants growing after my ridiculous mishaps with water contamination and damping off. Half are growing in MG Potting Mix and half in Jiffy Seed starting mix. The MG plants seem to be growing alot faster and...

It's getting warmer, closer.

Bought half a yard of premium compost (composted horse manure and coffee grounds) and half a yard of potting mix (the premium compost plus sand and perlite) from the local joint that processes waste from all of the local stables: $30 for a heaping truckload of good soil. Filled 30 pots and the rest is under wraps to top-dress things...

Starting Some Seed

Posted by mjdiamond83 in mjdiamond83's 2012 Grow Log, 10 January 2012 - - - - - - · 287 views

I got my 6' x 3' germination/grow box constructed and got started on germinating some seed. The box is lined with mylar blankets and lighted by 2 105W 5500K CFL bulbs. The inside is about 74 degrees. I didn't have too much potting soil left, so I was only able to start 18 seeds today; three each of 7 pot Jonah, TS Morouga, Yellow Bhut...

December 5th 2011 - Overwintering begins

Posted by Smiter Q in Smiter Q's Pepper Growing Blog, 05 December 2011 - - - - - - · 83 views

Was gifted a total of a dozen plants by a generous THP member who is local to me. Austin TX is expecting a real frost/freeze this week, so I brought them inside today. Some still have pods I am trying to get ripe, so they have not been cut down. Glad to have them out of the cold and in the house. Read on THP lots of folks say "bugs" will...

31/10/2011 - Update with pictures!!!

Posted by Redcap in Redcap's Growing Blog, 31 October 2011 - - - - - - · 124 views

Well, my little plants seem to be happy.
They're being kept indoors for now due to the random storms and winds we've been having in my area.

The 3 potted ones are starting to develop a 3rd leaf, and the one in the Ziplock* bag is still doing well, though I'll leave it in there for a bit longer yet to see if it grows any better.

Commercials...

God, commercials are starting to get really stupid... Especially beer commercials. Earlier I saw a commercial where 2 guys were at a bar, one said to the other that some woman liked him because she was looking at him, then she flipped him off, and the guy said that he spoke too soon, then the woman gave the guy some type of beer with the name of something...

So after spending the weekend making various hot pepper recipes, I decided to bang out a couple labels, just for the heck of it. I don't sell anything I make myself (for obvious legal reasons) but that doesn't mean it shouldn't look real purty as it hogs the counter space.

Here's my latest creation -...

Ok. So I figured I would use this little entry to introduce you all to some very kick-a$$ resources for logo, type, and label design. I'll keep adding as I think of stuff.

Breeding Hot Peppers

Posted by JesterJoker in JesterJoker's Blog, 19 August 2011 - - - - - - · 173 views

I have recently got into growing peppers, and I'm very interested in breeding/crossing peppers. I have a few crosses in mind that I want to try.

1: Cayenne x Bhut Jolokia (hoping for a larger around pepper and hotter then cayenne, and maybe faster growing then BHUT)
2: Trinidad Scorpion Butch x Douglah (to try to make a stable Brown/Chocolate Trinidad...

Just a quick update. No photos this time

Day 170 - June 30, 2011 - No photos. Just a quick update. I actually had to water my peppers for the first time in probably a month. We have had ample rain this June so it wasn’t necessary. But it has been dry for about a week now with hot sunny weather and now a heat advisory for tomorrow with temps to go past 95. There is no rain in the forecast for...

Collecting Pepper Seeds & Peppers

Posted by AspieJolokia in Peppers..., 17 June 2011 - - - - - - · 98 views

Within the last two weeks I have been waiting for my Ghost Chili and Cherry Pepper [both from a commercial website] to sprout. Also, I was selected as a winner of free seeds thanks to www.pepperjoe.com. I now have some smaller scale chili pepper seeds of which I have never heard of: NuMex Sunrise and Serrano Tampiqueno. I also got Rutger Tomato seeds as...
