    pests I have aphids on my plants. Is it okay to spray them with vinegar?

    I've been using Seventh Generation Dish Liquid from Wally World. It was recommended by a couple members on this site. I just mix a little soap and vegetable oil in a spray bottle. I sprayed the plants every evening, top and bottom of the leaf, for about a week. then I sprayed every other day for...

    Talk about a small world...

    It's not what's in it that costs so much, it's knowing in what proportion to mix it that they get you for.

I currently have about a little over a dozen in 6" pots and the red solo cups under a mix of T12 and T8 2x4 shop lights inside. Pots and raised bed out back.

    Calcium deficiency , How to add it

    The last pic looks like the soil is VERY wet. This was my first year growing and I had a few look like that due to over watering and trying to give to much love. I added come Cal Mag after they dried out and they recovered.

    The Monster Pequin from Mexico - Pequin Renondo Rojo #1

    I had never heard of this pepper before (still new to growing), but after seeing this I had to look it up. I'm confused though... all the sites I'm looking at say that the peppers grow to 2-3cm. Your's look to be about twice that. Also your plant, even after trimming appears to be about 3 times...

    fertilizer Fertilizer / Plant Food

    I've started a few Habs in pots for an experiment before starting full force next year. I am using the Miracle Grow moisture control mixed with some mushroom compost and perlite. So far, they are growing like weeds. Huge leafes and a nice dark "health" green color. They are looking far better...

    What age is too young for hot peppers?

    My folks used to put Tabasco on my fingers because I was chewing on my finger nails. It apparently didn't work to well as I now eat and grow my own hot / super hot peppers, order my sauce online as there is only 1 local place that makes anything even close to spicy, and I still have no finger nails.

    Hot pepper seeds in a 'bug out bag'

    With all the talk of a zombie apocalypse, dooms day, end of the world...I was wondering if any of you "preppers" out there have the hot pepper seads in your bug out bags? I realize that most only plan for 3 days, but many assume the worse and take everything but the kitchen sink. Thoughts?

    This is very cool. Just to make sure I am getting this right, you are hoping/expecting to actually have 2 different peppers growing on a single plant. This could be really cool at Christmas time to have red and green peppers...

    What age is too young for hot peppers?

    My daughter is 6 and tried her first Ghost pepper last night. It was just a lick, followed by 3 glasses of milk, but she then tried it again. I cook with powders and sauces to "spice things up". The last time I made something for the kids without adding anything, they said that it was "blan" and...

    Hello from Nashville

    Well.... not exactly Nashville but close enough and everyone knows where Nashville is. What started off as a trip to WalMart with the kids ended up with us buying seeds from lettuce to pumpkins to corn to sunflowers. Time to plant a garden! Same time, a friend at work bought some Ghost pepper...
