Job opportunity - VSP Seed Viability testers required

[cariann88]

Hang on.....I have found one of my seeds starting to grow

[sparrow100]

Erm...I may have mis-stated things. Just had a proper look in the propagator and my padrons label is missing. And I think it's them that are up, not the kashmiri.



BUT if you look for a tiny speck in the black tray, that's a Lipstick seedling coming up. And I know I had the last of those from the VSP. Am hoping that's minor redemption. And I'll pay more attention to my labelling in future!

[cariann88]

I've just noticed one of my chilies growing
Had to write the name down on paper because I've ran out of garden labels.

Well VC either has a lot of faith in me or she is dafter than she makes out. No guesses which one I think

I have got for testing

Chilli - Fatalli
Chilli - Jamaican Hot Red
Chilli - Demon Red
Chilli - Piemento de Padron
Chilli - Rokita
Chilli - Red Savina

Tom - Mortgage Lifter
Tom - Cheetham's Potato Leaf
Tom - Golden Queen
Tom - Atkin's Stuffing Tomato

Wish me luck

[veggiechicken]

There's no either/or - both apply

Good luck - as requested

Tomato seeds have also gone to Skeggijon and I'll be sending more out in the next few days to the other willing volunteers

Another one of my chilies has started to grow. That's 2 varieties now growing

[sparrow100]

VC the kashmiri & cyklon seeds have so far failed. The serranos are up though. I won't have room to resow till summer - do you want me to return the seeds I have left?

I have lipstick and royal black going too at home - they were the last seeds in the VSP of their kinds, so could I sub them in?

[veggiechicken]

Hang on to the seeds and, if you have chance to try again, please do so. It'll be interesting to see whether anyone else succeeds with them. Good news on the serranos though
Any seeds you,can save from any of the peppers would be welcome.

[cariann88]

I am not giving up on the ones that have not started to grow yet. Just hoping they will make an appearance soon.

Although, I don't know much on the Orchid chili that I am growing. And I can't find anything on the web. Does anyone know anything about them?

[veggiechicken]

Maybe this one? Aji orchid chile pepper database

[cariann88]

Thanks VC. I best find some bigger room from them if that's how big they get!

[skeggijon]

Seeds arrived thanks. Cant wait to get them sown now. Only trouble is I'm running out of places to put them

[cariann88]

I have just found this morning another one of my chilies starting to grow

So 3 varieties growing now. Wooooo!

[Guest]

My first volunteers are up. Four pimento de padron

My first tomato volunteer is up- just the one but he will do. Cheetham potato leaf

Oh and there are a couple of golden queen just pushing up
