Makes strange little crescent shaped bites out of leaves.  Knocked this one off the underside of a leaf where he was hanging out.    Going to town on my plants right now.  Arrgh!  Any help with ID and treatment?  

Mixed soil about half peat (sunshine mix) quarter happy frog and quarter oceans harvest.  Planted about a month ago as seedlings from Home Depot.  Watering ever 3-5 days with organic ferts 1x weekly (had just rained a little before pic).  Wind and hail has been rough this spring but some of this...

Howdy - had great success with first two crops in '13 and '14 because of help from this forum.  Lived in Northern KY at the time and had great harvests.  Have moved to McKinney, TX area now and finally got a new crop planted.  Trying to adapt to different climate and hoping for another bountiful...

I planted several varieties and did a poor job of managing labels so I did lose track if certain plants.  However, once fruit started to show, I was able to figure most of it out and match it back to the seed pack.   These two, however are confusing.  I've narrowed it down to hot lemons...

My first harvest was great but chile verdes were more prolific than expected with over 11 pounds. I will be canning and dehydrating tomorrow.   Does anyone have a good preservation solution?   If not, am thinking about just freezing but wanted to check.      

First time grower of anything.  2 4X4 raised beds, 7 pots, 47 plants.  Seeded in March.  Just pulled 24 pounds 4 ounces.  I will be busy canning and dehydrating tomorrow.  Many thanks to the patrons of this forum for support and education.  Second harvest coming shortly once the habs ripen.    

Looking good so far, I think.  Have a few yellow cayennes that are about ready to pick.  This site has been so helpful for a first timer. Thanks to everyone for patiently answering questions. Love this hobby.   Rained today so things are a little droopy.     Thanks for looking.   John

Things went downhill fast after transplanting last week. Watering from bottom using cap mats. Some transplanted into peat pots, others into plastic trays. No name potting soil, probably a little too much wood. Using 4X1900 lumens 4' CFLs about 3-5 inches above top of plants. These were...

Think I'm making progress on first grow. Supposed to put in ground in the next 30-45 days. Have some questions and observations I'd like to get input on: 1. I have a lot of plants that have taken off on me. Have kept lights low and used a fan...

Sowed on March 3. Watering from bottom in seed starting kit. Fan on them for last two weeks. 14-16 hours of light. Some pushing 2 inches and starting to lean a little. Anything I need to think about doing differently?[at John

Repost from welcome forum - Hi everybody. Total newbie to this and jumped in with both feet. A little nervous and looking for moral support. I sewed 18 varieties (13 hot, 5 sweet) in a Burpee 72 cell seed starter kit on March 3. Took the lid off on March 10 because sprouts had occurred and I...
