Hi all!!   I just wanted to say Gday to all the pepper lovers both old friends and new. Its been some time since Ive had a looksie in here. Glad to see the pepper addiction is still going strong.   Cheers Guys :hi:

Im happy to get you pictures also, yeah... what patrick said :)

Cool mate, Ill have the beers in the fridge nice an cold.

Cool as mate, what time approx?

Its all starting to fire up here with lots of new growth on all my plants, Sun has a bit more bite in it!! I must get some pix up for you. synclinorium have you tried the Yellow type very sweet though not as large fruit super easy to grow. The Dragon Fruits Rule :woohoo: !!!!!!!

Alls well mate, trying to perfect my little project on my "FaDoulaBBs" my Fatalii X Douglah contraption :)

Yes most definately give me a call.

Hi mate how ya been?

Hi synclinorium, Definitely remove the lower segments if you want faster initial growth, you really want to grow them "single file" straight up the post, four each side of the post is the norm... then once at the top let them branch out and fall back to the ground this is the time they know...

This is interesting, because from the 50 odd Douglah plants I grew out some time ago from my original mommy plant courtesy bentalphanerd, I too got red through-backs and I also recall ButchT was growing Red Douglahs way before any of us had them growing. Must be something in the make up of them...

I feel your pain Benny, frickin Gnats!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love growing in coco coir and using it is inviting Fungus Gnats, I reckon the bloody things come pre packaged in the stuff when you buy it! What Ive done is to reduce numbers, yellow sticky traps or even yellow plastic strips or whatever is...

Hi Franz Looks to me like the New Mexico State Bhut Jolokia variety to me, I have quite a few plants of these and all seem to have the same horns & pimples on the pods which is very appealing to me, also the delicate flavour of these pods also surpasses any of the Naga varietys I have grown...

Brother Your living in pepper paradise at your location... Id lose everything. Wait till this August to germinate your seeds, get a month growing under fluros inside no heat mats required. Mid September get em out side and they will kick ass for you all the way till now (May) proberly June...

My reco is lay off any nutrient application from now on and just give water as required for the next 3 months.
