The Hot Pepper

Romy6, I heard that "pruning" roots can have the same effect as pruning above ground foliages.
Not sure if there is truth to it, but worth looking into it!

Yeah they are super tangled, I'll just roll with it since they are super healthy...it is the purple tomatillo that went ape ish over night Yesterday was nute/water day and man oh man they went nutz

Yes I don't keep maters in the aero long . They grow so fast and suck up all the water .

Hahah, Crazy how well the cheater tank works!

Are you using the standard Aero Nutes?

Just the same stuff I give my in dirt plants..Cal-Mag + fish fert - off to the dirt they go!

Whoo! Can't wait to see your grow this year!

mine's in the box, still.

Dude, get it out STAT, my tomatillo is 3 times the size of its brother that started 8 weeks earlier Even most of the chinense have caught up.

wait til you graduate from the toy

^^don't follow

aerogarden=toy

If you say so but my stubborn seeds and plants do not agree. To each their own. Over 100 of mine started in soil or similar...

I'm just saying wait until you try something bigger/better than an aerogarden.

If it's a toy... It's an awesome Adult you with results to prove it hahaha

Maybe don't try to separate roots and transplant on the same day. Detangling / pruning roots and giving plants a day or two to recover before potting up may alleviate transplant shock. No experience - just talking out of my ass.

Survival of the fittest I'll take pictures of the roots...redonkulus I say....

When I'm xplanting a hot mess of roots I will just throw about an inch of new dirt into the bigger container put the mess in then keep piling in soil and dragging the plant up through it so untangles a bit and long roots stay on the bottom.

^^cheers, yeah these are a foot or more long so will be fun planting them in the solo cups just to harden off then out in the dirt they go
