The same happened to me this year, with all my bell peppers. With me only the 1st and second peppers that were ripening had this happen to them, the rest that followed were fine. Good luck =)

Looks like blossom end rot.

The only other place i have ever heard of using peroxide was with coloring your hair white(or peroxide your hair). That's why I was so interested when i read you can soak your seeds in it. So after Mega's post I did some reading on H202 and got a better understanding of it, even filled my spray...

Don't know if this will help/be useful Its software for an android phone on the Android Market called Grow Buddy. Funny, in its description there is mention of some "herb" as well.

I thought, since they are inside(until they are ready to go outside again), id put foil around the base to keep some heat. The foil is just temporary(actually,I saw it on a video of The Chilli Guys on "utube") But will remove it, didn't know it can be toxic. Thanks for the tip

Hey Joe Nope, haven't used anything on them, just plain old tap water. The soil is just regular potting soil, maybe get them into some compost and get them little less sun during the day?

Thanks for the Info Going to try this over the weekend for sure. Its rugby worldcup and has been hard getting the attention....uhm.... to my girlfriend (because shes sitting next to me =), always "1st priority", and the gardening).

Hey guys I have 2 unknown chilli seedling bought from the local nursery a few weeks ago, all was going good until the leaves started yellowing, edges browning and bottom leaves start wilting. Can this be simple sunburn(since they have been outside, in direct sunlight, since I got them) or...

Hey Megamoo What percentage strength was the peroxide you used and what was the ratio to water and how much chamomile tea bags did you use? Just for interest. Soaked some seeds today in plain tap water and would like to see the difference it makes. You have some nice looking plants there...

Thanks alot Ill be using half sized Florescent lights. I have some wood lying around(see what the designer in me will do to mount the casing). Oh and here's some pics of a "Doomsday" chilli plant I bought at the nursery I bought my soil from. I googled the plant and came up only with...

I couldn't find a normal thermometer for soil, but am using a borrowed refrigerator thermometer from my uncle and am getting temp between 75f (without towel over the trays) - 85f with a towel over the trays ] Atm,as a test, i have some choc bhut jolokia's, jalapeno's, mulato's, few bell peppers...

Took the reptile heating mat and hooked it to a standard dimmer switch, all looks good(It works for the moment). Ill repot the seeds to smaller containers and bring them indoors until they have sprouted, ill play around with where im going to put it, luckily for me there are more jalapeno seeds...

Thanks for the post SuperHot Will a reptile heating mat work, it doesnt have a regulator, its max temp goes to around 35C(95F). I can hook it up to a electrical timer to keep the heat down. Will it be fine then to say(if the reptile mat works) to just put my trays straight on it with no cover...

Hey guys I'm fairly new to gardening, so the seeds I bought came with instructions and I try to follow them as closely as possible!!! i think I have a problem, do not know yet. I started to plant the seeds, on Tuesday, in these average sized grow bags, ok, but the instructions says grow them...
