Here is the start of a more than likely a rarely updated grow log of my attempt to grow a bunch of peppers. I don’t know really anything about growing peppers (having never grown more than a ancho plant) and get fairly busy with other projects, so at times the plants get neglected. I started seeds back in the start of February and have continued to plant more and more seeds but finally have stopped myself.
The nights are still cold (was 22 last night) here so I am waiting for a while longer to even leave them in my hoop house at night. They are growing in a room in my basement under a 400 watt HID light. I have good air circulation and flow in the grow room but am slowly running out of room as the plants grow. Hopefully soon the night temps will stabilize a bit more and I’ll get them in the hoop house.
The hoop house is 11X20 and will be the main home for my pepper plants. I will have a couple rows of peppers running down the sides with the middle left open for container plants. I’m planning on adding some shade cloth this summer to cool it during the days and maybe even a ghetto misting system. I’m also going to set up an auto watering system. I have to try and make the whole setup as little work as possible because I will more than likely be getting shoulder surgery at the start of summer. I'm going to have to have my girlfriend and some other people help me out at times. Should be interesting...
Some plants experienced some issues but these seem to be clearing up by adding CalMag to the water. So hopefully the leaves will continue to smooth out and growth will speed up a bit. There is 150+ plants right now and some will be going to friends so that they can have some fun too.
