2007 Pepper Garden ? - Page 2

obispo45 · January 6, 2007

Yep, started looking through my "seed vault"...and of course all the 2007 catalogs which always seem to arrive simultaneously, and realized its time to start getting down to brass tacks. At the present time(subject to frequent change..lol) I've kinda sorta figured out the majority of my sweet pepper cultivars, most of which are hybrids. The hot stuff for the most part will be open pollinated with a couple hybrids tossed in.

Good growing Richard!! Hope the seeds I sent ya will provide a lot of fun for the family!! That book Seed to Seed by Suzanne Ashworth is a wonderful resource for anyone interested in seed saving and gardening in general. Suzanne hasn't steered me wrong yet and has probably forgotten more about crops than I'll ever know...lol.

OmahaJB · January 7, 2007

Growing indoors I can have more than "season". To name a few of the ones I'll be trying:

Hots
Numex Big Jim - Already started
Georgia Flame
Fish
Jamaican Hot Chocolate
Pepperoncini

Sweets
Elephant's Ear - Has already produced
Chinese Giant & Quadrato D'Asti Rosso have peppers on them, but I think they need better lighting. The peppers have stunted growth and aren't ripening.

I have plenty of hot & sweet peppers received in trade this year. I'll be doing research on all the varieties to determine the growing order. I plan on growing them all eventually.

My wife likes to and can grow peppers but has a hard time with tomatoes.
Here are our peppers for the year.

Tri-fetti
Thai Hot
Tabasco
Royal Black
Riot
Pretty purple pepper
Poinsettia
NuMex Twilite
Medusa
Marbles
Little Elfe
Jamacan Hot Yellow
Largo purple
Jamaican Hot Red
Fish Pepper
Filus Blue
Bulgarian Carrot
Bolivian Rainbow

I think they will make a nice replacement for flowers and so does my wife.
No sweet peppers for me.

Worth i'm only seeing 18 you need to round that out to 20 ! Need some??

Worth1 · January 15, 2007

Richard,
I do appreciate the offer but if I took them, ‘I would just be a seed collector.
I’m not apposed to seed collecting for others but for me I actually want to grow the things.
This would be no problem, if I was here at home all of the time, but I’m not?
I feel I am putting quite a burden on my wife as it is and am trying to do everything possible to make it as easy as possible for her.
I have even thought about enlisting the help from a neighbor to help her and I would gladly pay this person to do it.

I want my wife to have success with the plants and if she has too many to take care of this might not happen.
Which may discourage her from gardening and we don’t need that.
She has done a real stand up job so far.

So send them if you want but I cannot guarantee I would start them.
My belief is that folks that send seeds to others think they will be put to good use.
I can’t guarantee that, thus the reason I did not join in on Carolyn’s seed giveaway.
I felt they would be put to better use elsewhere.

Thank you very much for the offer.

barkeater · March 29, 2007

This years pepper garden plan is for:

10 Early Jalapeno - Very early, hot and VERY reliable.
4 Jalapeno Goliath F1* - Big, hype says 30% hotter.
2 Kung Pao F1* - Long, hot and dries well.
2 Thai Hot - Very hot, prolific, and dries well.
2 Garden Salsa - Very large, hot, good stuffed/roasted.
2 Sweet Havana F1* - Very large cubanelle type.

* 1st Time growing.

Rejected: Serrano Del Sol and Ring of Fire Cayenne. Had high hopes last year but both had poor production of unremarkable peppers.

FlipTX · April 27, 2007

I wasn't going to grow peppers of any kind this year, after several failed attempts in the past. But I saw some Carmen seedlings at the nursery that I couldn't resist. Two of them been in the ground for, oh, about six weeks now and I have several fruit ranging in size from 1" to 4" long.

shelleybean · April 27, 2007

You're a little ahead of me, FlipTX. I have a three inch pepper on Melrose and a tiny one on Tenn. Cheese. I had about a dozen little peppers on my Doe Hill plants but noticed today a bug had bored into several of them.

At least the bug has good taste. None of my hot peppers have even flowered yet so they're safe.

Elayne · May 10, 2007

Kung Pao
Thai Dragon
Biker Billy Jalapeno
False Alarm Jalapeno
Hungarian Wax
Ancho

**mdvpc** · May 11, 2007

I have for my hot peppers:

jalapeno
numex big jim
cayenne
habanero

For my sweet peppers:

lipstick
corno di rosso
jimmy nardello's

FlipTX · May 25, 2007

How's everyone's pepper garden doing? My first Carmen peppers are just starting to ripen. I'm encouraged enough by my pepper attempt this year to expand my horizons a bit next year.
