    5P chillis

    So i was in the local supermarket after work this evening, just picking up a beer or four, and came upon a surprise 5P chillies in the reduced section.

    Favourite tomato variety

    I'm pretty happy with the tigerella variety I've grown over the past couple of years.   Anybody I've given them to seem pretty keen on having some again as well.

    Tips for keeping dogs away from my plants?

    I remember seeing cat repelling plants at my local garden centre. Coleus canina was it's name i believe. It was meant to be most effective on cats but also advertised to repel dogs.

    Jubnat's 2017 grow log

        Either that or your friends will just wait until your lemon drops are ready then shoot you whilst running away laughing manically with a crudely hacked lemon drop plant in their hands.   you can't have just one lemon drop you have to have them all.   They're that good.

    Jubnat's 2017 grow log

    Your plants look really nice and healthy.   Wish my lemon drops were the first to flower. Probably one of the best peppers ever.

    seeds coir vs soil - seed starts

    nice comparison. Could be useful for those tricky species that refuse to pop.   I imagine whatever method you choose for feeding will have to be heavily diluted at such a young stage.    Have you seen the differences in root size? maybe just some root growth stuff would be a good idea idea. No...

    My 2017 pepper progress, yes I have a problem.

        What you mean like a proper full scale poly tunnel?   Allways loved the idea of owning one of those one day. Imagine the amount of peppers you could grow then.
