i wil definitely be trial-ing this next year.

great grow man! I am a coco grower too.    How are you plants doing now? It would be cool to see some more photos.    You are growing in straight coir no?

I was working in up the coast at a blueberry field yesterday and I came across these 2-4 year old overwintered manzano peppers.    

  some shots of the grow and fruit. Much more fruit ripening on plants September 14th PT-84

Some overview shots with a close up of some nice pods on some other hot peppers.  They could be ghost peppers? I am not sure... I lost 11 red bells due to heavy fruit load and a trellising collapse. September 2 2016 PT-72     Below are some more photos from September 8th.   September...

Amazing grow ! Some incredible looking peppers. I would love to purchase seeds from your Jamaican red habaneros if you have some available.

A good calcium magnesium ratio that we use in commercial pepper production on hot peppers and bell peppers is 2:1.

I took a closer look at your photo. It's definitely not a nutritional disorder. I say this because your other plants actually look fine. The brown specs/spots are indicative of a bacterial spot or speck disease. Without more up close photos it's hard to tell, but lower leaves dropping with...

Id lean to agree with Schdez. What does your fertilizer program look like? I would say possibly some micronutrients with definite nitrogen and phosphorus problems. Let's us know your fertilizer inputs and the frequency to diagnose. Your plants definetly look yellow

Nice peppers on your 2016 glog! You have quite the pepper collection; that's awesome! Do you save seeds?

AUGUST 26 2016  PT-65 I was unable to make it out the field for 7 days and this is what I find to my surprise when I return; Iron deficiency. My dosing mechanism for the fertilizer became plugged and so the plants where on no acidified water for 7 days at a Ph of 7.8 at this alkalinity my DTPA...

Good to hear form a few growers already. Awesome.    LOCATION: I am in Southern California Ventura County area and we have pretty consistant temperatures throughout the year. We have had a couple hot spells in the last few months, 80-85, with an occasional 90 degrees. It has been hotter toward...
