There!
Now all the plants are out in the greenhouse :)
Some 60+ were kept and potted, of which, many will be shouted away as gifts!
Finally I can kick back, relax and just watch them explode in growth :D

New season, 2009!

I thought it was about time to get this blog up and running again.

Last years season was fantastic, and gave lots of fruit. This year however will most likely be the best sofar. 

A week ago I put over 100 seeds in the soil, and today over 50% have germinated.

Pictures to come

UPDATE!

I just realized that I hadn't updated here in a while!A lot has happened here at the 'chilifarm', among the most important is the lightinstallation, which has improved plant lifequality greatly :D20 species from the fatalii.net seeds have germinated properly and only four remains; Locato, CAP 220, Aji Limo and Starfish.
Oldest plants are almost 6weeks now and youngest 21days

chilis have a new home

Finally my little buildingproject is finished and the chilis are now living in their new home - the closet :D
Here there will be no goddamned cats nor kids to disturb, and the temperature is a lot better.

artificial lights added

1x Philips new generation 30w/827 (warmwhite),
1x Philips new generation 30w840 (coldwhite),
2x sylvania aquastar 174 (blue growlight)

more growth!

Bam!
Now there are five germinated seeds that sprouted the soil;
Short Yellow Tabasco,
Inca Berry,
Lemon Drop,
C05482 and
PI 260560.

I tried some pots today with my on onionbasket to see if I had a match and bingo - instant win.
In the combination of a black 12L bucket the combination means that there's a 3L waterreservoir left at the bottom - which I think is perfect!
