Hey thanks thats helpful. Id sorta figured they werent suited to full full sun.

Im hoping to tap into the collective wisdom here to get the best out of my one Aji Lemon Drop plant. I dont have a lot of experience with baccatums and my prior attempts havent been terribly successful. I only managed to get one viable plant out of my Lemon Drop seeds so I cant experiment...

Its not exactly the nice, taught cover I was imagining. Either I made a mistake in measuring or they cut it the wrong size. I probably ballsed it up somehow. Im heading out of town for a while so its going to have to do, but Ill get it right eventually.

Well... that didnt work out great

Yeah thats my fear. I know 40% is common but the sun here is brutal. I may call back tomorrow and see if I can step down to 50%.

  This is the first thing I thought of, too. Looks like she posted something of an update:   https://www.reddit.com/r/spicy/comments/bvaaoz/stupid_kids_have_a_hot_pepper_eating_contest_in_a/epnczwc?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x   It's an interesting legal question. Fear of lawsuits wouldn't...

Hey all. After last year's brutal summer and feeble harvest I swore I'd pick up a shade cloth for this year. Took a little longer than I'd have liked but I finally placed an order and should have it up in about two weeks or so. Of course, I instantly had buyer's remorse and now I'm worrying I...

Certainly no expert here, but I like the idea of doing what I can to keep the plant healthy then letting it do everything else. If it wants to flower let it flower.

You think those guys from E.T. are available?

I yoinked it. Now what do yall reckon is the best way to destroy it? Im in the middle of the city so a burn pile isnt really an option. I could toss it on the grill, I guess.

Oof. Ok Im going to go deal with that immediately. Thanks everyone for your help.

Ive had quite a few jalapeños, sweet bananas, and a few orange and chocolate habs hanging for a while now. But nothing is even threatening to ripen yet. Definitely getting impatient.

Yeah see thats what Im thinking. I dont see any reason for a deficiency in this plant alone. Its got good soil and good fertilizer. Ive never dealt with a virus before and it doesnt obviously look like anything else Ive found in my research. The half that looks fine is whats really throwing me...

About a month ago I noticed some deformed and discolored leaves on this Trinidad Morgua Scorpion. Never really saw any pests other than just a few stray aphids. It's in a good soil mix with compost, gypsum and mineral sand so I didn't suspect a deficiency. I figured I was dealing with broad...
