I will check my PH tonight and report. I had been adjusting the PH down slightly as my tap water is 7.5 Not checked run off yet but maybe the PH has been too low?

My leaves are starting to curl but also going quite bumpy on new growth. I have read somewhere this may be calcium deficiency and to add bonemeal to the soil. They are all doing this but the three below are the worst. They have had decent light, bottom watered and not watered too often. Is...

They are crocus which I believe comes back every year. We havent planted them but inherited them from the previous house owners. We didnt have the house at this time last year so every plant that appears is a surprise and a mystery.

Wooop. New branches :) Regarding re-potting. The Habs, Scotch bonnets and all others are still in the cups pictured above. I only moved the two Cayennes on because the roots were looking pretty packed in and the side of the cup was showing more roots than soil. They are about 4-5" tall I...

Dont know why the light is holding them back. Sunny days they are in the conservatory and other times they are under a 250w MH bulb. 18 hours minimum light a day. I watered them when they started to droop and also put in a 1/2 recommended dose of Chilli Focus. Although I have been trying to...

Plants coming along nicely now although the Habs and Scotch bonnets are still small on the leaves although staying very low (height) and compact. Test Cayennes re-potted into 4" pots and main crop of Cayennes have sprouted and are showing their first true leaves Could someone tell me what these...

Well, managed to get my raised beds filled over the weekend. They took 240 litres of compost per bed to bring the level up after turning it over with top soil. Planted some onion sets and also started some potatoes. Should be starting tomatoes, lettuce, peas and carrots in the next two weeks...

K stands for Kelvin. Type Kelvin Light Scale into google images and it will show you the colour temperature scale

Thanks. I "borrowed" the idea off someone on here but cant remember which post and who to thank. Forgot to mention going to plant some Razmatazz for some different colours in the conservatory.

Couple of picture updates. Peppers coming along well and the yellow leaves have almost disappeared. I am now watering them with PH adjusted water as my tap water was around 7.5-8 Question though if anyone can help. I planted my seeds on average 5-6 weeks ago and they arent tall or wide...

Do you have a link to the PDF file you downloaded? I have searched but cant find it Thanks

Didnt realise they were under a artificial light. My first attempt at a chilli plant last year produced leaves probably 1/4 size of those. If you dont mind me asking what type of light are you using? Great looking plants by the way!

Thanks. This has answered one question I have been struggling with. So its on age rather than photosensitive flowering?

A good friend of mine looked through the ingredients in Chilli Focus and said there were enzimes and organisms in it to help promote nutrient take up of the plant. Will post a pic of the ingredient list if its of any use for you guys?

WOW, your garden looks lush and the lawn is very well kept! Your pepper harvest looks awesome. Well done
