Hey everyone! After a very busy and depressing 2017 grow, I've decided to come back with fury in 2018. I'm hoping to match my production in 2016, as I'm finally starting to run low from my 2016 grow. Anyways, I'm after flavorful pods, and pods for powder this year. Therefore, my focus will...

Well, it's the new year, and it's time to get things going for 2016.   First up, last year's grow can be found here -> http://thehotpepper.com/topic/44060-slade122s-2014-greenhouse-glog/   I'm going to grow around the same number of plants as I did last year. Somewhere between 130-150.   I...

I wanted to start a thread on the End Results of Topping, FIMing, and Pruning. I see lots of threads on how to top, why to top, and so on, often with pictures before and after, but less common is an end-season result shot. This thread is meant to help people make up their mind of exactly when...

I'm wondering what everyone prefers to use or grow instead of bells for sweet peppers. My bell pepper production has always been low, and I seem to need quite a few plants to provide myself with sweets. I'm mainly looking for overall productiveness and taste. I hate to waste so much space...

I update the following spreadsheet pretty much daily with information about the plants, etc. This also allows me to keep track of when to expect/allow flowering to occur. This is the first generation of my spreadsheet designed by myself. Download My Veggie Tracking Spreadsheet   Sprouting Setup...

Unknown Pepper   Plant Overview. Jalapeno plant in the background, unknown in foreground. This hydroponic plant is a year old, and these are the first peppers I have gotten from it. The original plant was located in Taipei, Taiwan, where the seeds somehow ended up in my pocket, and were even...
