Alrighty!!! I have a few more pictures of the latest wave.  I still can't quite pinpoint what they are.  I took several clones from the mother plant.  The first picture is of a pod off one of the clones that I am growing outdoors.  I have to say that most of the pods outdoors look different that...

  Thanks for the response. 

I sure wish I found this forum before I got bit by the "Grow the Hottest Pepper in the world" bug.  Thankfully, whatever these end up being (reapers or not) I have had amazing success growing peppers my for my first time indoors (hydroponically). Who you get the seeds from is the key from the...

I have been doing a grow and finally got some peppers with the help of this forum.  Now I am starting to worry that they may not actually be Reapers.  Here are some pictures.  Any help would be appreciated to put my mind at ease.        

Found my first pepper on the big girl today finally!!!!!! It is small but its a pepper!!!!  I changed the nutrients again today and went with the General Hydroponics basic 3 pack.  We will see how it goes.  These things are going through 5 gallons of water in 3-5 days now! Have 12 clones ready...

Starting to get a little worried.  This thing is getting so big under the LED I don't know what to do with it.  If I prune it, will it drop the flowers more and keep growing? Im afraid it is going to take over the whole area.  The pictures do not do it justice.  The pH is also shooting way up...

A mars Hydro LED.   I have found a lot of flowers are dropping. Not all but more than what I though would.   I have the pH right around 6 and am going the shake method and q-tip method of pollinating daily.  Am I missing something about the flowers or is it normal for some to drop?

It has been a while since I posted an update. These pictures are 78 days after I started the seed.  About 3 days ago I got my first flower on the plant under the LED!! Super excited.  Lost count at 60 pods.  The plant under the CFL is smaller but coming along.  Here are some pictures.   ...

Starting to get a bunch of flowers under the LED.  I also pruned and the new growth on the bottom took off like a rocket.  Growing these are a blast!

It might mess the the experiment but I think I will top one of them and leave the other.  It is crazy how many flowers it looks the one is about to have.  With peppers do you change the light cycle to 12-12 or if it has flowers leave it where it is at? I am currently doing 18-6.    Once again...

Should I top these or let them grow without messing with them seeing its my first pepper grow?

I am currently using a mars hydro Led with the Veg and bloom option.  Here is the link for it on amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JUI6ARK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00   Im logging the results of it growing Carolina Reapers.  If you want to check it out here is my...

Thanks for the responses!  As far as what strength I am following the label.  I currently do not have a way yo measure the PPM.  Today is day #51 I posted a new video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgUtpME59as here is the link if anyone is interested.  Thanks for the pic instructions.  Here are...

Thank you both!!  Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do I post pictures?  i'm about to make another video but I'd like to share pictures.  So far, both plants with the Sole nutrients are about dead (One under the led the other under the CFL).  The Plants using the Urban Hydroponics are...

Hello everyone! I came across this forum and have been reading a ton of posts today! This is my first post.  I will keep this one short.  I am currently growing peppers for the first time. I am growing them hydroponically in a DWC system and the peppers are Carolina Reapers.  Just wondering if...
