Should I be thumbnailing these images?  At this point it's a pretty big load haha.   Anyway, a quick update pic.   Based on the growth, I get the sense my distribution from the reservoir tank isn't exactly even.  :)       Have done one round of the FloraGrow system... (Micro + Grow)... used...

So another update here.   All four plants now have their taproots down into the water, so I've been able to stop the regular top watering I was doing.      Still have a slight kink in one of the hoses coming out of my resevoir, and I feel like that might be whats causing the back plants to lag...

Cool looking variety, great review.   Made me laugh out loud when the first word out of your mouth after poppin in the pod, was 'seedy'.    :P

The one plant that was first to get a tap root down into the nutrients is doing the best...  second one just got there and has immediately started catching up!   The back two are still runty... and are requiring manual watering a couple times a day.  Hopefully they grow down soon.      I think...

  Would love to get in on the group, if anything just to check out some pictures!   I'm very interested in the road less traveled so to speak... genera other than what I'm calling the big five (annuum, baccatum, chinense, frutescens, pubescens).   Why is it some genus are considered...

Those look like awesome peppers!  Any plans for them?  Gonna dry them out or use them fresh?

Been a few weeks.   In that time, I've started to throw iced bottles of water into my resevoir tank... I switch them out three times a day.   Ambient temperature in my place has been hovering around 80F, with 50-70% humidity.  Pretty nuts for inside... so definitely struggling to keep the water...

One piece of advice, don't order them from Amazon lol.   I didn't learn that until after all my nice super hots turned out to be thai chilis...   :party:   As others have said, great sellers on the site here in the appropriate forum!

Greetings fellow Canuck!   Sounds like you figured out the picture uploading...  the few I've done, I just use imgur to host them... just use the bbcode (for forums) copy and paste option they give you.

  Thanks.  I couldn't decipher the COB... though with an electrical background you think I might have clued in!   

Hello fellow Ontarioan!  New grower here myself... stumbled on the site exactly how you did.   Welcome!

just watched your latest youtube 2016 grow update.  wow, what an array of peppers you've got going there.    impressive dude!   so back to the kratky...  what do you find the advantages are?  is it just less pumps and electricity and what not?  do you find the plants benefit one way or the...

Are the tubes there simply as support for the plant?  Or do they play some role in the Kratky setup?   Liked your video!  Subscribed.

What are these CREE COBs you guys keep talking about?  I get Cree is the brand name of a led light manufacturer... but what does COB refer too?      Working on my first indoor grow now with a 4 tube Agrobrite T5.   4 plants under it.  Was already thinking I might need to supplement that light...

I'm fairly new around these parts, but this post does kind of scream of 'advertisement'.   The only thing being fed here is the trolls.   :party:
