Cheers folks.   nzchili, wow, 'time consuming' must be a heck of an understatement!! Thanks for the tip, though - will try it if needed. "Bug oil" was something like neem?   I've got the autosprayer in now, and 4 days in - no more psyllids or eggs yet... and no plant/leaf damage. Looking like a...

Hey all,   Have a real issue with psyllids in my garage grow - has anyone used an automatic pyrethrum spray (like the timed bug sprayers used in house fly control at home) to control bugs?    Only during foliage growth.   Thinking of using one coupled with a fan.   Cheers,   Dave.

Hi DM,    I'm pretty happy with the LED shop lights I use - check them out here - http://thehotpepper.com/topic/45510-from-new-to-lost-sanity-in-a-few-short-months/page-2#entry1005957   Am doing exactly what you are - growing inside in a lit area. I've got a constant fight on my hands in taking...

Thanks, ChiliNoob - scary times!   Quick update:   Got a massive psyllid issue... which I dealt with, but not without some losses. I'm still to take stock of exactly what I've lost, but was in the region of 5 plants, 3 of which were simply were moved outside ("quarantined" 2x seedling and 1x big...

Don't forget aliexpress!   Even better deals there, however be prepared to spend time searching for what you need - both for the best deal, and the configuration.

Head down to the bottom of the first page of my glog, too, for a little (only a little and not as good!) more information/an option (rolls over to page 2).    Will have another update in the next few days, too - the lights are going well, though, so they could be an option.  ...

Armstrong was the first man on the moon. Aldrin was the first man to pee on the moon. Aldrin now owns the moon? Or does it go to the last man?

I'm no expert by any means, but it looks similar (from the leaves and flowers) to my black jalapeno plants - I could be way off base though!

Thanks everyone!   Not sure how big they're going to get inside before I can bare to risk them outside - it may be that my spare room is going to be a pepper room, as well as the garage... I have until November, though, as they'll have to vacate the spare room to make room for a new addition to...

If it's not earwigs, please ignore this, and sorry to harp on!       I've certainly seen some little earwigs*, and some monsters too - reason I said earwigs was the pincers (assumed the pincers are at the 'tail' end?).    moosery, I don't think they're carnivorous - likely omnivorous? Literally...

Hey Pat,   Might be Earwigs, I reckon - one of these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earwig   Horrible things (they decimated my garden this season just gone - earwigs and I are not on good terms...)

I've not been posting for a while, sorry, but thought I'd drop by with a bit of an update. Many, many changes.   (I also spend the day on a computer so tend to avoid it from home at the moment).   I've gone a little mad - from my 'sane' beginnings to 90 plants and another 40 seeds just gone down...

Quick update after being away from the forums for a while due to work taking all my time -    Threw some weak (30% strength-ish) calmag and micro nutes at them, with some blood and bone mixed in - they perked up and were fine after that.   Thanks for the suggestions, all - no idea what the...

Hi all,    Summary: Would like to get hold of 3-5 pods of as many varieties, mild to hot, as possible - will pay for shipping and the peppers themselves, of course - in New Zealand.       Detail: Am embarking on a number of beer- and food-related projects and am looking to source a few (maybe...
