Well, assuming they survive (a good bet) I will be growing the over-wintered plants:

Mammoth jalapeno (x2)
Normal jalapeno (+1 I hope)
Serrano
Cubanelle (+1 I hope)
Cayenne
Cowhorn
Fatalii (one is quite enough)

I have 30-40 more varieties, thanks to The Seed Fairy and other kind contributors, but somewhat less than an acre to plant them in, so I may just try to germinate a few of them and let natural selection makes its .. err .. selection.

Edit: Subsequently started:

** Lemon Drop
** Twilight
** BJ (2012)
** BJ (2011)
** Poblano
** Trinidad Congo
** Chocolate Hab
** 7 Pot Johan cross
** Red Fatalii
** Red Savina
** Orange Thai
** Trinidad Scorpion Moruga
** Devil's Tongue
** Black Cobra
** Douglah
** Espelette (none up yet)
** Naga Morich
** Alma
** Chocolate Scotch Bonnet (none up yet)
** Hungarian Hot Wax (none up yet)
** Peter Pekker
7 Pot Brain Strain
Anaheim
Chile de Arbol
Douglah
Orange Manzano
Trinidad Scorpion Moruga

** ... and we have lift-off!

Too bad I am limited because of a move this summer. Here is my list, short as it is, I think it's the best selection.

Ghost aka Bhut Jolokia
Galapagos ( C. galapagoense )
White Habanero
Tepin or Black Pearl or Chocolate Habanero still undecided on the last choice. I just can't picture transporting any more than 4 plants come June.

Mark

My overwintered plants are mostly dead, have one serrano and one habanero mustard that will probably make it; I foolishly followed (probably misinterpreted) advice from another thread and washed the roots clean of all soil with a 'green' dish soap, I'm convinced this was the wrong thing to have done, anyway, I won't do it again.

EARLY was the guiding factor with me in deciding what to grow. This is my 2nd year with baccatums, I'm hooked forever more. :-)

Aji Crystal
Aji Habanero
Aji Omnicolor
Burpee Hot Lemon
Criolla Sella
Inca Red Drop
Beni Highlands
Limon
Nardello
Yummy Orange

I've been needing to narrow down the list, I just haven't gotten it all finalized yet. Not enough space to grow it all. :-) Here's my tentative list.

NuMex Big Jim
ANCHO SAN MARTIN HYBRID
Jamaica Scotch Bonnet
Thai Hot
Guajillo
Guam Boonie
7-pod Brain Strain
7-pod Yellow
Alma Paprika
Kalocsai V2
Christmas Bell
Cyklon
NuMex Heritage 6-4
NuMex Sweet

Several are "must grow" every year, several are overwintering, and the rest compete for space. This year I wanted to focus on some paprika type peppers.

Since the seed swap, I'm having a very hard time trying to decide. Maybe just try them all for a trial basis, then cull/choose next season. Trying to choose based on how I would use them, but there are several in these categories. Gary

Well, I started to make my list earlier this year and started collecting seeds the past few months. I grew too many tomatoes last year and was told no more tomatoes for a year or so, which opens the garden for all the peppers I can get in there. Now I feel like the guy at a Smorgasbord where I put way to much on my plate. Here is my list of seeds that I have for 2013, but I have not decided if I will plant them all.
Fatali
Congo Trinidad
Caribbean Red
Habanero Brown
Pasilla - Holy Mole Hybrid
Habanero Red
Pasilla Bajio
Rocotillo
White Habanero
Chocolate Habanero
Bhut Jolokia
Lemon Drop (aj� limon)
Jamaican Yellow Scotch Bonnet
Primo 7 Pot
Devil's Tongue
Dorset Naga
Assam Bhut Jolokia
Carolina Reaper
Moruga Trinidad Scorpion
NuMex Conquistador
NuMex Garnet
NuMex Suave Orange
Cajamarca
Onza
Christmas Bell (Uba Tuba)
Datil
NuMex Heritage Big Jim

Not sure how many will grow like they should, but going to give them a big try. Have had good luck some years growing Habaneros, Jalapenos, Thai and Cayenne, etx. but have not tried the super hots yet. Got my fingers crossed for a normal and warm summer up here in the Pac NW.

Bill (the Rookie)

here's my list. these will all be going into pots, easier to care for than in my clay soil, and i need garden space for other stuff.

7pot jonah
aji limon
trinidad douglah
chocolate bhut
habanero manzano
aji gold
aji panca
aji dulce
trinidad scorpion butch t
numex suave orange
fatalii
caribean red hab
scotch bonnet orange
red hot cherry
jalapeno
cajun belle
piri piri

hope i don't get itchy to look for more lol
wanted to get a couple of more extra hot strains, but semillas sold out and the others are too expensive, i'll survive without them :)

Short and sweet list:

Aji Pineapple
Jalapeno M
Purple Serrano
Fish

I could try some others, maybe, but those are the ones I have to grow. Well, Fish is actually a retry, last year's died before setting pods, so I still don't know what it tastes like. Maybe I'll a cayenne, to add a little heat to my powdered jalapenos. Or find something else that is fabulous with cheese besides the jalapenos...

These are all new to me and on my 2013 germination attempt list:
Aji Camba Capsicum baccatum
Angkor Sunrise
Aribibi Gusanito (PI 543203)

I will also go over last season's successes, and failures, and pick a few more from that.

Hi Deb! Long time no see!!! I'll be starting the Pick-A-Peck of Peppers Seed Swap again soon.

Here is the first half of my official growlist for 2013 (all chinense, baccatums and pubescens):

The Manzanos were sown 12-29-12, and the rest were sown today.

The 2nd tray will be all annums and will get sown in another month or so.

Bonnie

Cayenne
Red Rocoto
Heritage Big Jim
Sandia
Texas Tepin
Sonoran Tepin
Ft. Prescott Tepin
Brazilian Starfish
Aji Omnicolor

Okay, here's what I've came up with so far that has made the cut(but subject to change as I just picked up an additional 30 acres to plant as I please):
White Hab
Chocolate Hab
Big Jim
Butch T
Fatali
Cajun Belle
Trinidad Moruga Scorpion
Billy Biker
Yellow Ghost
7 Pot
7 Pot Brain Strain
Naga Morich
Red Savina

I have some seeds that were crossed when I bought them that I saved so I have no idea what they are except good! If anyone has any "must grow" they think I should add to my list I would be greatly appreciative!

Hey y'all some impressive sounding peppers! austinnhanasmom, I really wanted that Bahamian Goat. Couldn't find seed, dangit. But I think I have enough.

First time trying the superhots from seed but so far, all will be started in 6 pack 72 deep cells, 3 seeds per cell, 6 pack of each. Some I saved, some from friends, some bought. Starting all but annuums Feb 1.

chinense:
Harold's St. Barts
Caribbean Red
Fatalii
Chocolate Hab
Jamaican Hot Choc
Datil
Scotch Bonnet
Bonda Ma Jaques
Naga x Brain
Douglah
Trinidad Scorpion Moruga Blend
7 Pod Brain Strain Yellow
7 Pod Yellow
Peach Bhut
Caramel Bhut
7 Pod Brain x Naga
Choc Bhut
Trinidad Scorpion CARDI
7 Pod Burgundy
Naga Morich
Trinidad Perfume
Peruvian White Hab
Murupi Laranja White

Inca Red Drop--baccatums
Aji Limon--baccatums

Tabasco--frutescens
Red and Orange Thai--frutescens
Bradley's Bahamian--frutescens

Orange Manzano--pubescens

And the annuums get seeded Feb 11:

Cayenne
Keriting Long
Zapotec Jal
Jal M
Serrano
Jaloro
Red Hot Cherry
Anaheim--always end up being "hot" (according to others).
Poblano--no matter how hard I try to grow a mild one, they grow out hot (again, per some folks, or vary from pod to pod).

Will post pics along way. Soaking seeds 30 minutes in dilute H202, then rinses. Then 8 hr. or o/n in salt petre and dilute kelp solution. Probably overkill on the soak but the manzanos have lots of crooks/crannies for lurking pathogens, thus the H202 In moistening process of Promix BX (added perlite and dolomite lime) using some Actinovate which actually doesn't cancel out the mycorr in BX, or in my experience, hasn't. When pot up, dab roots with a little mycorr, anyhow.

Anybody with suggestions: growing lots of sweet peppers and tomatoes as well, please suggest away! If I'm not learning, not growing. Thanks!

Annie

In zone 7b and most will go in-ground--well-amended over years--garden April 30. Last frost date 4-15. Hard to tell with spring: I held off, kept hardening, last year when they could have gone in-ground. Only planting some paste tomatoes--lots--in double 5 gallon self-watering buckets. Might pot the manzanos in same SWBucket system, Al's 5-1-1 mix.

Again, any suggestions? Please suggest! Annie

Below is my list that I am going to attempt. First time ever trying to grow about 95% of these. I am doing mostly containers with some in the ground. I sowed a few last weekend and going to sow rest today while watching football.
Question, is there a comprehensive list somewhere that will list the "heatness" in order by type of pepper?

Black Knight
Chinese Five Color

F4 Red Savina Habanero X Chocolate Habanero
F3 Long Thick Cayenne
Red Fatali (SAK59)
F2 NuMex Mexibell Hybrid

Here is a link that might be useful: My Youtube Channel

My list isn't quite so exotic as some of the others. I have very limited space, so I had to make some tough decisions.

Jalapeno (some from seed packets and some from last year's plants)
Poblano (some from seed packets and some from last year's plants)
Bhut Jalokia
Brown Habanero ?mystery? pepper that a buddy of mine shared seeds with
Red Marconi
Anaheim
Cayenne (saved seeds from last year)

I may not have a garden this year... but, I do have some things I'd like to grow, if I have any backyard space or potting space.

Habenero Peppers
Jalepeno Peppers
Genovese Basil
Mammoth Sunflower(if enough space is available)
Watermelon(I've forgotten the exact name, but it's a non-herimloom that gets to around 5-10lbs).
If I can get my hands on some other herbs, I will grow them as well(Rosemary, Thyme, etc...)

Unfortunately what was my 'garden' from last year has been taken from me. So I don't have a lot this year I can plant.. a shame, last year was my first time gardening. I'd managed to get lettuce, potatoes, green onions, beans, carrots, cucumber, sweet peppers, and squash. Even from a late, late start(July!). :( These plants mean a great deal to me and it makes me sad that I can't grow all kinds, but I can try with my little potted ones.

A good luck to all of you, though! :)

I'm cutting back on the peppers some this year. Just going to do bhuts, douglahs, and butch T's.

Got a lot of other stuff I really want to grow and limited amounts of space.

Going to be doing purple apple berries, okinawan sweet potatoes, atlantic giant pumpkins (the 500+ pounders), wolfsbane, belladonna, and a whole small field of glass gem corn.

My 2013 list. Most are already growing, but some have yet to germinate.

Tray #2 was sown last night.

Highalttransplant, that's awesome.

bump

I'm doing this for the first time. Very exciting, 9 days in, and already almost everything in the first sowing sprouted (20 seeds in 10 cells). Filled another 24 cell box yesterday.

Came with a "starter kit":
Twilight
Ring of fire

Growing out of curiosity:
Aji Lemon

Also growing Green Chili. I have no idea what it is really called, but bought them at a grocery store last year and they were bigger, tastier and MUCH HOTTER than the Thai Hots - 'green chili peppers' were all they were labeled as. I figured I would try and grow some out this year, as I really enjoyed these.

How my guys are doing:

Summary spreadsheet via Google.

The number in the "Up & Dead" column are plants that emerged and subsequently died, usually by helmet head disease. Far more simply never came up - those don't have their own column.

Note the overall germination rate! Really good.

Now if I can just get the survival rate up over 50% I'd be even more over stocked with seedlings.

I finally got my seeding done today...just a couple days later than I had planned on.

This post was edited by esox07 on Sat, Feb 16, 13 at 23:15

Well I've decided to grow my Holy Grail this year.

THE WHITE MANZANO.

http://s403.beta.photobucket.com/user/smoemaster_2007/media/IM004342.jpg.html?sort=3&o=589

http://s403.beta.photobucket.com/user/smoemaster_2007/media/IM004346.jpg.html?sort=3&o=591

Not light yellow,White.

I had 1 plant that put out pure white pods but I had a mite problem for a while and tried to save the plant by giving it to some one who I thought would save seeds and take care of the plant.
They didn't save seeds from the pods or care for the plant.

I have 1 plant from the white podded pods seeds growing and have several other plants growing from Yellow/White pods seeds I saved.

The pic of the pod are next to a couple very light yellow pods.
The plant from the middle pod put out T shirt whit pods.

So IF the last plant I have from the white Manzano grows true I'll be spending the next seasons re growing seeds to see if the albino is stable.

Any time I saw a White Rocoto or Manzano it was a very light yellow,not pure white.
The pic looks yellower than the pods were in real life.

I'm on a mission from the pepper gods.
I have 18 sprouts from 1 white and 17+ yellow white pods seeds going now.

I'm sick and tired of the super hot crap.
Totally unstable crap sold as a new strain or variety...
Most are 1 trick ponies.

I like my 7 pots but am on a quest for bigger and better things.
Tired of unstable stuff being called new strains or varieties.
$ has taken over these days.
Really sad in my opinion.

Ya I'm into trying to grow every pepper known to man but these unstable peppers aren't on my list.

You guys are growing stuff I've never even heard of.

Doesn't matter. My children are special. I don't care how many languages yours can speak.

Dennis

:-)

I will share any of the seeds that I collect from my goofy list. Some I am growing (attempting anyway) merely for the trading and sharing...

I can vow to bag blossoms, and keep my plants correctly labeled, but only time will tell...

highalttransplant caused this desire in me to find the perfect seasoning pepper or peppers....
