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...
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...
Today they got there Heatmat thanks to a member and his help. JAN-24-2012
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...
Germination for the overheated (120 degree) wet towel seeds was like 80% and the same seeds that I put directly into growing medium did almost nothing so I am running another test using dried Bhut Jolokia seeds and 915river seeds which are:
Aji Cereza
Arivivi PI5733
Arledge

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...
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.

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...
Here are some pics of my current grow list seedlings that are now in cups.

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.

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...

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...
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...
