Has anybody tried using sulfur as a treatment against aphids, and if so how effective was it?

Left on the plant a little longer, and these yellow 7's ended up going a nice golden yellow   :P  

Please note that the whitish stuff is either copper chlorate or sulfur.  ;)   I really need some help with this one guys, please :confused:     This, whatever it is, is proving very problematic on my Moruga plants, slowly killing stems and foliage.   Attacks new and damage growth. Attacks from...

The source that i obtained my original Red 7 from last year also grew reapers. They sent me a mixed box of chilies with some label's, however the during transport everything got mixed up. I was told they might put a reaper in the mix if they where ready at the time of harvesting.   There was...

Hi, :)   I noticed a few days ago that the ripening pods on my yellow 7 where going soft, and as they continued to ripen a clear soft 'V' shaped unripe pattern would appear. These soft spots seem contained to the outer tissue of the pods as the inside is healthy... Due to the very inclement...

I bought this yet to be named variety of chili plant from the folk at Sea Springs (Dorset Naga people). The guy said they where thinking of calling it 'Yellow Submarine', but they needed to check copy right's etc before they could... i'm not sure if he was joking or not, but he seemed genuine...

So i was at a chili festival recently, and at this place they had opened up the gardens. In the gardens where plenty of green houses containing chili plants, they had hundreds of verities all loaded with ripe pods... many plant's had pod's that where beginning to rot on the plant as they had...

Could this be a magnesium issue?     I've have quite a few leafs like it though they're not always as pronounced as this. They eventually drop off.   Thank you :)

What is the scoville of 7 pot brainstrain?   I thought it was approx 1 million however after cutting into one of my dwarf pods and then rinsing it under the sink i found throat being irritated - admittedly i had my head quite close to the split pod.   I then sliced the baby pod up and licked the...

I've seen these before on my plant's but only in isolation. This morning i spoted 5 of them on one leaf, they are tiny and run quite fast. Are they sucking the life out of my leaf's?  My initial thoughts are maybe a thrip??   I really need some help with this please :)     Also I've had pod's...

Would just like to share a few Pod shots from my season so far as it would seem all i have done is start problem threads.    Barrackpores:     Yellow 7's     Brainstrains     Moruga's     I also have Dorest Naga, Bengle Naga, T-Scorps and Red Savina's,

I've just found this very informative web page and thought I would share with you folk on here. It's regarding common nutrient deficiency's and also excess of common nutrients. I only wish I had found this a few weeks back...

Hi, just a quick question.. Other then spraying the leafs.. How do I go about applying Epsom salts to my plants? Can I simply mix with water and then water the plants, if so how much should I be mixing? My watering can is 2L and I don't have scales so can we say approximately how many tea...

I was recently served a salad with these in them at work. Though not hot they still pack a lot of flavour and i wouldn't mind growing some myself.   I can't seem to find much information about the chili itself and how to acquire some seeds.  ...

A few of my plants have leaf's that are dropping off.    Leafs are firm feeling Mostly top half From both sun & Shaded side of plants Edges are curled up, though a few case of leaf curling under Most have peachy/ pink veins surrounded by blotchy yellow areas, some are more pinky purple On plants...

Will a layer of sphagnum moss applies to the bases of my 'pot bound' chilli plants have a detrimental effect? I seem to have issues keeping the soil PH down on the pot bound chillies.

Long story short 3 plants one a Naga, two T-Scorps and i got them muddled up. This little beauty grew over 5/6 days and i thought yay what a fantastic looking Naga  :onfire:     Any way i go on my holiday and come back, about 2 weeks has passed and i check on my Naga...  :shocked:  :twisted: ...

I suspect i might have over fertilized my plant's  :drunk:  :cry: Could this be sign of it?     Need some help/advice please folk  :neutral:

I will start with a question, a few of my seedlings have what appear to be paler thinner patches on some of the leaves. For the most part they have been kept in a small propagator in filtered sunlight.   I am thinking maybe sunburn?? Or some other 'sun' related problem.     reduced saturation...

Not sure on the usual time from sowing to germination for these strains, but I have a moruga and barakapore that have popped up after only 6 days. I've been using an electric propagator in my room with 8 pots containing: moruga, barakapore, yellow 7's, and brainstrain - 2 of each and all seeds...
