[millworkman]

Congrats Lee.

C. Rhomboideum. True Leaves

 

[Pam]

Wow, you have some rare varieties. Please keep posting pictures!

 

[lee]

I sure will. In about 2 weeks I will give them full CFL light that will boost the grow.

 

[lee]

Those wild varieties are absolutely beautiful. Especially that C. Rhomboideum that has yellow flowers. Unique to chilli's

Look at that c. Lanceolatum

 

[TXCG]

Wow. Those plants are gorgeous. I love the shape/texture of the leaves on that C. Rhomboideum & the yellow flowers are fantastic too. Looks more like an ornamental shrub than a pepper plant.

And C. Lanceolatum has leaves that remind me of bamboo. Did you grow these ones last year?

Can't wait to see how they turn out, i'll have to give some of the wild varieties a shot next year man!

 

[imaguitargod]

I hope they will do just fine and give me plenty of seeds

Hey Lee,

Is that a computer fan hanging on the right side wall? If so, how hard was it to "hook up", i.e. how'd you wire it. I've got several boat-anchor computers sitting around, so I've been thinking about using the fans for air circulation, but didn't know how to exactly.

If that's NOT a computer fan..er..nevermind.

 

[lee]

Its the same type of fan used in PC. Its only a bigger version of it. I hooked it up to a 24V powersupply. But they also available as 220V/110V. You could also use a regular fan, anything that circulates air will do. But as you can see on the pic. a regular fan won't fit in there.

Hi Down River,

If you want a 12v computer fan to work then see if you can find an old transformer lying round the house. Im running mine on 9v, slightly underpowered but it does the job.
