Anyone tried any of the jalapenos from Hippy seed company?   Examples...   https://thehippyseedcompany.com/product/jalapeno-tormenta/   https://thehippyseedcompany.com/product/jalapeno-chichimeca/

I have been lazy with the fertilizing. Most if not all of my plants need more nitrogen so I started up the fish emulsion once a week after taking these pictures. A few are already getting back to being a darker shade of green but a few still need more.

Alright, it has been too long. The plants are doing well, but I am going to use bigger pots and test some hydro next year/this winter.

Those look like similar burn marks on my plants when I watered them in the "morning". If you get water drops on your leaves, they can magnify your lights and cause splochy burns. I now only water within a few hours of my lights turning off.

Since it's a nice Friday afternoon, I am hardening off a few of the plants to be planted outside next month. I am also trying to plan how I will plant them outside to keep them away from this plant munching & trampling monster. I am thinking about raised beds with a fence or on legs with a few...

I am in Salem with a south facing cover so I think I am going to move them to 2-3gallon pots and place them on the out there on the patio table early/mid May. My plan is to keep 1 of every plant inside to do some crossing and have peppers year round. I may have to skip a couple becasue I am not...

Paul I like the Kratky Milk Jar. I want to try this next year.

Thanks Paul. Temp control from the oven or central heating was not going to work out well. I am using a spare bedroom and the central heating just fluctuates too much....Also, I don't really want the whole house to be 80F. I have started hardening some plants  when it s not too cold or rainy...

Alright I have totally forgot to update this. I dried out the seeds in the oven besides 3 freeport scotch bonnets soo that did not work. I got a heating pad and a controller set to 80F. Now I have some seedlings. I am using a HLG 100 3000K and watering every 2ish days.  I listed the seeds that...

I have a HLG100 and it works fantastically. I have been thinking of adding an optic 1 or and hlg 65.

The light was on 24/7 in the oven for warmth because it is how I normally proof bread. After the oven light burned out and there was still no germination, I got the mat.  I may use my germination pad to proof bread now as well.

Update: No germination what so ever.Last week, I added some fresh seed from store bought habanaros and serranos. I do not think the oven light was not transferring enough heat into the tupperware. Last night, I put everything on a heating mat set to 78F. Hopefully, I'll be planting soon.

This is my first grow of any plant ever. I have never had a reason to grow any and usually not enough space to as well. Now I have space and can't find super hot peppers in my area.   -The Plan >Soak in tea >Germinate stored in tuperware with damp paper towels in the over with the light on    >I...

I plan on fitting as many 2.5 or 3gal pots as I can in the space to grow under the light and window, and moving the rest outside.

I am planning on hanging a light over the space I plan to grow reapers, scotch bonnets, and jalapenos. The space is a spare bedroom that has a western facing window. I want to use the light to make up for low sunlight due to living in Oregon and my neighbor's house.    Here are the lights I am...
