Lemon ajis are up, 3 of them. Our tomatoes are up,.almost all. Lots of atomic grape is up. Pretty happy with the peppers so far. Could have had more yellow jalapenos.
Tomatoes growing their 1st leaves. At least half are looking pretty great. Will probably plant more Indigo rose and lucid gem tomorrow, and habaneros.
There's a 1st batch of Indigo rose which looks good. Yellow pears are doing great. Not much green zebra. Not much costuluto. 1 purple bumblee is struggling, the other 2 are good. There's 1 Cherokee purple. One black vernissage is doing good, the other has nothing. 1 Robeson is good, the other 2 have nothing. Still toms comibg up in Amish gold and tom thumb. Maybe more.
|
planting: purple bumblee, lucid gem, indigo rose. spraying and soaking anaheim seeds from last year.
planted habanero seed today, have 2 pots for them. more is sprouting, will plant in a few days.
2 dead ones and 1 new one.
new one -yel jalapeno?
2 dead ones: 1 lucid gem.
old slots in tray: indigo rose, p bumble bee. dead 1 p bumblebee.
Planted half the yellow jalapeno, sprayed the rest. Have 1 brandywine soaking in water which the stem withered. Hopefully it will root.
Planted half the indigo rose, at least 100 seeds, and all the purple bumblee, maybe Nother 100 seeds. Planted about 20 lucid gem. Done planting tomatoes now! All I have left are the indigo rose.
Only 2 types pep left to plant in a few days too. Feels good being almost done.
I think the soil i plabted the toms in was too wet and caused the stem rot.
Todo: sanitize more soil tmrw.

yel jap is sprouted but so much mold im scared to open the bag.
|
Planted all the habanero seed ad ye jalapeno seed yesterday. And all the others that sprouted. Already see habs coming up. The only one were waiting for is Anaheim. Plants looking good despite aphid attack. Yel Jal from last summer is dying now.
|
the newest batch of indigo rose and purple bumblee are just starting to come up today. a good sign. going to do some neem today, and wait 24 hours to see if the plants are ok. then a full douse tomorrow.
made neem oil solution: 10ml neem oil, 10 ml alcohol 70%, 1 drop dish soap, 1 litre water. sprayd on green oxalis, and larger pepper plants, and jalapenos. we'll see how they look in 24 hr.
Moved the plants around today, the green oxalis in the window looks liek shit, however the ones downstairs look great. so all the oxalis is out of the window and precious seedlings are there now. will do some moving tmrw. no anaheim sprouts today, if they dont come up maybe i'll give up on anaheim.
Today planted tom seed in green tray: pink cherry, Cherokee purple, costuluto, black vernissage.
|
There are 2 sprouts in the Anaheim seeds so far. Poblano has leaves up. Neem didnt appear to kill anything from yesterday. 3 lucid gem sprouts are coming up. lots of indigo rose and p bumblebee coming up.
its going well.
In the next week, we will split the ground cherries. they are crowding out their pot. Also will split the bigger peppers. However we are low on room for all the plants.
|
Indigo rose coming up fine and strong now. i think it's a matter of not letting the seed get too wet. and not covering the soil with anything, so the moisture isnt trapped in. r kept telling me to water the baby seedlings and i didnt, and when i did only sparingly bottom water. it seems to have worked like a charm.
I just let r water my habaneros overhead. i told him a teaspoon of water only. i am very concerned about overwatering. the plants looked fine. he said the dirt is dry as dust and he said that a lot lately. however i havent lost any to drying out. well, almost the guajillo and the lemon aji, whihc the ahi bounced back and it was overhead, and i hadnt checked it for 2 or 3 days and r didnt either.
The tomatoes int eh bathroom are bouncing back. for a wile i thought i wouldnt have enough but now tey are filling out and looking good. ill have a few less brandywine and others than i expected, but i have some.
to-do: plant anaheims.
|
Put both cubanelle and anaheim to sprout yesterday.
|
today fertilized toms in green tray. Some sprouts coming up, 3 b vernissage, 2 cherokee purple.
Added soil to the peps that had aphids rinsed off. soem needed lots of soil. we have a decent amount of cherry bombs, jalapenos, and sweet bells. good amount of choc shep too.
Got some brazil starfish plants coming up, 1 piquin and no orange jalapeno or mad hatter yet. though we have bishop crown anyway.
2 blue boxes of habaneros look great starting 1st leaves. new indigo rose and p bumblebee look amazing. to-do: fert ground cherry in kitchen.
|
Fertilized the ground cherry. R did the other one already.
|
Divided 1 pot of orange shep(3 plants), 1 of sweet bell(20 plants). still 1 more pot of orange shep. planning on doing 1 choc shep (13 plants) and theres 2 more pots of that.
We now have almost 30 sweet bell peppers plants. they are mostly small but have real leaves. they should grow quicker now that they have their own pots.
next we will do ground cherry.
Next to separate: cherry bomb 1/2, jalapeno, yel jal 1/3, hab 1/2, yel cayene. 1 or 2 deco.
We have 1 twilight (10 plants), 2 orange deco (10,1) 1 bishop crown (10).
|
Separated 12 Choc shepard today. Separated a dozen Yellow jalapeno, plus 5 large yellow jalapeno at 5" tall each. put them in 5" pots and on sale for $5 each.
Next to separate: cherry bomb, yellow cayenne
Jalapeno, twilight, habanero and orange chili are not big enough to separate really.
Tomorrow: sanitize more dirt!
