Today 27/05/2009, I planted my first seeds for the year 2009,
I thought that I would get a really good start this season, as my last season was a bit late last time.
they were all soaked in a solution of chamomile tea for approx 18 hrs,
then planted into Jiffy pellets and placed into propagators on a heated base of 28C.
I will germinate the other varieties over the next few months,
growing them using CFL untill they are ready to go outside.
Hopefully by the end of August.

Nice "menu" there.
Looking forward to your reports.

Lovely list Junglerain you have some of my Favorite peppers there love 7pot yellow even more than the red,The Douglah taste great to and remember The Morouga scorpion yellow or red is a Morouga/Scorpion cross,the Morouga is a plant from Tobago the `Morouga` area and there is also a Morouga Yellow and red,Not very hot about Savina heat the difference between the plants is the morouga is like a smaller Congo type and smooth and the cross is pitted and looks more like a scorpion with no tail lol  ;)

Thanks for the info Talas, i guess I'll find out for sure when I start to get pods

Nice list my friend :D
Remember  send you some wilds and others,letter already send.

Thanks Mika,  the only 3 types of wilds I have are now germinating, so I am looking for more.

Looks like you will have a great pepper season!

/Patrik

I hope so Patrik, I hope to do a few crosses, fingers crossed  ;)

The first seedling to sprout was the Cili Goronong.
Here's some pics of the first of the seedlings to sprout, here they are 1 to 4 days old,
I've now moved them to the propagation box which will hold approx 200 seedlings.

Ok Guys time for a couple more pics,

Looks good!

You sure your permanent marker will hold for the whole season?
I lost some labels few years ago because of the permanent marker / label material.

And don't worry about the lance, it will be very slow grower at first.

Looks very good!
Soon you got real jungle in your house :D

Nice to see so many quick germinations my friend..Tea you cant beat it  ;)

:-\ lets hope so Fatalli, or I'm in big trouble, although last season I marked them the same and the writing didn't fade....fingers crossed

Pencil,Pencil,Pencil lol  ;D

Yeah, if it lasted last year, it will now too! :)

I have used dymo labeling machine and have been really happy with it as it will last for several years!

Today I just repotted 62 seedlings and added their first top up of fertilizer at 1/4 strength.I'm trying a new organic type, I used both eco-cweed & eco-aminogrow combined.

Damn!
Those seedlings looking great :D

Looks very good! I wish some day I'll have enough room to grow over 100 chili plants too. There are so many interesting varieties to grow and so little space. Good luck for your new seedlings! :)

yes I have noticed, they are taller than all the plants, also there is one that is growing slighly different from the rest.....maybe a hybrid???

Looks good G , some plants might need some repotting though.
I thought I already read it somewhere but what are your plans with those?

To your previous post: thats some HAIRY pube!!!

Can't wait to see the pics of that "black" hab.

What is the point with the chamomil tea and soaking the seeds in it for less then a day?

It would be nice to see what kind of huge greenhouse you have reserved to grow this jungle of yours as the both the numbers plants and variaty is mindblowing.

Hi MikaK,
The reason I use the Chamomile tea is because the tannins in tea are meant to soften the seed casing and are believed to be behind the success of this method. As several growers have reported that Chamomile tea is particularly good as the teas anti fungal properties are said to reduce the problem of damping off. Whether this has been proven though I'm not sure, how ever if it does help then great, if not then still nothing lost.
As for the huge Greenhouse, I don't have (though it would be nice to have). The plants are indoors at the moment and will go outside in pots and direct to the soil, since the weather in Austalia where I am fromonly gets to its lowest in winter at 1c and thats not too often, but in Summer it can get very hot, 40c and we have a long growing season where we can grow for around 9 months in the south, however in the north it is possible to grow all year round.
I just hope I can grow so many with out too many problems, I guess time will tell...

Thanks Fatalii, I haven't grown any of these baccas before, which ones do you find interesting?

At least Aji Brazilian Bonanza and Aji Francos.

Oh, if you haven't tasted PI 446900 yet... it's a GREAT variety too!

Here are the plants I have growing so far!!! There are 1 to 4 of each.

Does anyone know if I have all the names of the varieties correct and If I haven't doubled up on some,
seeing that some chillis/peppers are known by more than one name?

Looks really nice, even though a bit dry. How much them needs watering, during dry season?

You need a rain on the jungle. lol

Keep up the good work and let us see development...

Its so hot and dry over this way, theres been a drought for around 5 yrs here. I just gave them a good watering last night and they'll get another tonight, see how this damm dry hot sun dries out the top of the soil real quick

Its been another 2 weeks on now and the pods are beging to grow, Heres an update on some unripe pods;

A bit stupid question but aren't those raised beds "bad" when its dry? I would make more like lowered beds and lots of stuff over it to prevent vaporization.

I've found them a bit easier to maintain...no problems so far

Great results Grant!!. btw how are the temps. right now down under?

cheers

Wow! That looks sooo nice and yummy.... I wish there was already summer here and I had at least a fraction of the yield you have.

I have about 6 more weeks left to this season.....then it all starts again in June  ;)

It looks very impressive. Almost like visit in candystore.

Thanks ToniPetter, I feel like I'm in a candy store full of burning hot sweets when I'm out amongst them picking all the pods

That white 7pod look mighty! Id love to grow that one day, does it have the same heat and characteristics as normal 7pods?
I so envy your garden, best of luck to you, been following you both here and on thehotpepper! Great pictures.

Thanks blafa,
the 7pot/podwhite has the same smell as a 7pot/pod, but a little less heat, although the heat hits straight away

Another day's work  ;D
