Couple problems solved

Posted by dbarrym in dbarrym's Blog, 28 April 2012 - - - - - - · 167 views

Just a short update...last week I found some yellowing and necrotic spots on the leaves of the Savinas and orange Habs, and some of the newer additions, notably the Bhuts and Choc Habs, had leaves that weren't as dark as they should be. I suspected a Cal/Mag deficiency, so I sprayed everybody with an epsom salt/water spray, and followed up by watering...

2nd attempt

Posted by Redcap in Redcap's Growing Blog, 25 April 2012 - - - - - - · 163 views

So, after the cat eating my seedlings last yr, I've decided to start again.

I have some Jalapeno & Bulgarian Carrots that have germinated (in Autumn here, mainly running them as an experiment to see how far I can push the season).

And have cheated a little and purchased a Jalapeno Macho Nacho, Yellow Hot Wax (Banana Chili), Firecrackers, and a...

All seeds came from Pepperjoes.com and pepperlover.com. Also one Burpee seed. Soaked seeds overnight on 3/27, and all went into coco...

Heading into Spring

Posted by PaulG in Wandering the Capsicum Landscape, 28 March 2012 - - - - - - · 129 views

At this time of the grow out, I've just potted-up to 1 gallon containers for moving out to the greenhouse. Not a lot of action on the grow table under the lights, just lots of branching and budding. Only about 12 plants under the lights, now, mostly annuums and baccatums and 4 chinense varieties.

The weather isn't great, but...

My first try at hydroponics

hydroponics, ebb and flow, hydro and 2 more...

I'm sure the ebb and flow system could always been built in a better way but there is close to zero DIY hydroponic equipment in my country. These containers was the biggest and most fitting I could find for my limited space. If big tanks and trays were available I might have built one reservoir and tray instead of 3 systems. One benefit is that I can...

OK my very first blog. Never had the inclination to write one before, never thought I knew anything interesting that other folks would like to read. Not saying I do now but I want to put some thoughts to words without having to worry about offending anyone. This is mine and if you're offended by anything leave. I do not care. I'm not looking for...

potted up, greening up

Posted by Ají hombre in Ají Hombre's Blog, 05 February 2012 - * * * * * · 379 views

Capsicum chinense doesn't like Fox Farms' Light Warrior mix. The C. annuum and C. pubescens are doing fine on the stuff, but the C. chinense--and especially the superhots--have looked poorly from sprouting. Maybe it's the lack of nutes (my opinion) or maybe its the pH, but a week after potting up some of those...

Posted by mjdiamond83 in mjdiamond83's 2012 Grow Log, 10 January 2012 - - - - - - · 459 views

I got my 6' x 3' germination/grow box constructed and got started on germinating some seed. The box is lined with mylar blankets and lighted by 2 105W 5500K CFL bulbs. The inside is about 74 degrees. I didn't have too much potting soil left, so I was only able to start 18 seeds today; three each of 7 pot Jonah, TS Morouga, Yellow Bhut...

December 5th 2011 - Overwintering begins

Was gifted a total of a dozen plants by a generous THP member who is local to me. Austin TX is expecting a real frost/freeze this week, so I brought them inside today. Some still have pods I am trying to get ripe, so they have not been cut down. Glad to have them out of the cold and in the house. Read on THP lots of folks say "bugs" will...
