I topped 3 of the Thais and left one just in case I topped the others too much :P My Jalapenos are starting to put out tonnes of flower pods, which I don't want just yet. They're still very small plants and I want them to grow a lot more. How should I clip the pods? They're still very small, so...

Thanks for the advice. The Thais are a bit problematic. They've been growing really fast from the start. When I transplanted them into the peat pots, they weren't sticking out that much because I buried them as deep as I could. But they kept growing extremely fast. Even if they were right...

Damnit... I had it all written already and I accidentally clicked the x and closed the tab. oh well, here we go again... After a month, I'm updating my grow log. Some of the chiliies are doing great, some not so much. A few of my Jalapenos decided to dry out over night, I managed to save 2...

I had to pot on 6 of my chillies because the roots started to poke out from the peat pot a lot. Potted on 2 Jalapenos and 3 Bhut Jolokias. Their new home Jalapeno Bhut Jolokia

I'm not complaining :P This year will be the first time I grow stuff in an actual garden and not just in pots, so I just hope the weather will behave =) Thanks! :) I'll post more pictures when there's something to post. I've seen a few roots sticking out of the peat pots here and there, so I...

You can see the averages here: http://www.weather-and-climate.com/average-monthly-Rainfall-Temperature-Sunshine,lasko,Slovenia I live a bit more to the south, where the temperatures tend to get a bit higher. Last year it was really hot and dry during the summer, a couple of years back it was...

GrowBox v1.0 - The uncovered side is facing the window, so it gets some extra light and i turn the light off at night, so it doesn't really matter. The top is open, so it has at least some form of ventilation. The plants inside the box: 1st row Jalapeno, 2nd row Bhut Jolokia, 3rd row Big Thai...

SO last year my chillies didn't grow much. I had a bunch of varieties and they all started growing at the very end of the season, so i didn't have any real amount of ripe chillies. This year i decided to do things a bit differently and with that in mind I sowed some of my seeds early (around...

I thought about excessive nutrients too but i've only fertilized it about 3 times in the last month with the fertilizer diluted in water way more than it says on the bottle. it also says to fertilize once a week. and i didn't put as much fert as it says on the bottle. All my other plants (about...

hey guys! my bhut is acting up a bit. It finally started to flower and then all of a sudden the flowers just fell off. Some new ones appeared a couple of days ago but they completely dried out by now. I'm guessing the problem is phosphorus deficiency, because the stem and a few leaves are...

Thanks, everyone! it was a store bought soil and the stated ph and nutrient levels were supposed to be ok. but i guess something didn't add up. i changed the soil and it's going a lot better now.

Hey everyone! I've been on this forum for a little while now, reading, spying on other people's glogs and stuff.. just the usual! I'm from Slovenia and we've had just the perfect chilli growing season here this year, only problem for me was i had sucky soil and nothing really grew that well...

I'm sorry to hear that! I hope she'll be ok! I hope your cool sauces and fresh peppers will help her scare away the tumor!

Your tabascos are very green, aren't they? I know they're unripe, but i thought they were supposed to be light green, not dark. How are they doing now? Beautiful plants, btw!

does this also work for Europe? if yes, then 297 thanks! :D
