    Lost some pepper plants

    Not all was lost. My two butch t scorpions probably won't make it. And I lost most of my seedlings (mostly mustard Habs, rocotto and fatalii) a few more look rough but I think they'll pull through. Over all not as bad as I thought. All of my second year plants look fine, maybe better with some...

    Lost some pepper plants

    I tried to stake it, but my ground is to hard. I'd need some rebar stakes made. I don't have anyone to check on them and fix them. I think most of the plants should be ok. The seedlings probably not so much. I think I might remove the plastic covering. I put it under some trees to keep it...

    Lost some pepper plants

    Set up a greenhouse secured it well with heavy rocks. Had all the windows/doors open to let air through. The wind blew it up and over knocking over all my plants. I was on my way out of the house leaving for a week trip had the kid and wife loaded in the car when I noticed it. I righted all the...

    Promix Vegetable and Herb...

    Anyone use this? I will be up potting from 3.5 gallons (thought they were 5 gallon but was wrong). I see a lot of people using promix, but I haven't seen this one inparticular. It's a little pricy, so I thought I'd ask before pulling the trigger.

    I saw some large grow fabric bags on amazon. I might go that route. Thanks.

    Pot size

    Not trying to hijack your thread, but I over wintered my plants in what I thought were 5 gallon nursery pots. I noticed today they are in 3.5. Should I up pot these (I'm thinking I should). I might go buy some HD 5 gallon buckets. All things being equal would there be much difference between...

    Second year growing.

    Most of my plants look like this. This one is in the shade receiving 2 hours morning sun. The others in filtered sun all day seem to be dropping flowers.

    Second year growing.

    I bought a greenhouse. It's the type with green plastic fabric over it. I think this will help keep the humidity up, but I worried it will get too hot. I want to get an additional shade cloth to put over it. I was thinking either black 30% or white 22%. I'm in tucson az for reference. Should...

    Second year growing.

    All were bought as potting mixes. I added perlite to the mix I bought last year just because I had some on hand. At least I think that's what I bought. Is there a difference between potting soil and potting mix?

    Second year growing.

    Most are in some organic mix I bought last year, I can't remember the brand. The two in the large tubs were transplanted in the tubs not long ago with miracle grow.

    Second year growing.

    Flowers already dropping. It been in the low 90s high 80s. All plants are either in the shade with 2 hours full sun in the morning or 50% shade all day. I hope this heat is temporary before we really get into summer.

    Second year growing.

    I know short node spacing should allow for more flowers, but right now the plants look like sticks with clumps of small dense leaves. I think this is from being outside while over wintering. I would like them to get large and busy like the plants I see on here.

    Second year growing.

    One is white the other dark blue. My current plants are in black nursery pots so I thought these would be better than those. I shouldnt have to move them, but if I do I don't think they'll be too heavy. I think the black pots contributed to my poor last season, along with a odd short spring...

    Second year growing.

    I was thinking of moving two of my plants to individual plastic storage bins. They each good 3 cubic feet. I'll have to drill holes in the bottom. Any downside to using these?
