Fatalii not looking so hot?

Newer Growth is pimply and twisting... Any Ideas, Cal deficiency?

Cayennemist · Apr 23, 2012

Jamison · Apr 23, 2012

About how old is that Fatali? Looks good man! Your livin the dream out the in S.D. Im jealous :tear:

Jay · Apr 23, 2012

I agree, that fatalii looks great, and I like the leaves on that purple bhut. Keep it up.

millworkman · Apr 23, 2012

That's just how chinense and particularly fataliis grow. Don't worry, be happy...

Aight man! No pressure...I'm watching! Looking good

Glad you started a glog...the 7 pod/pot thing is a constant debate. It should be pot...as one pepper is enough to season 7 pots of chili.(or whatever you're trying to spice up)

Hope you get them all to pop...I have a bunch more varieties if you decide you may wanna try something else. As for the Bonchi, let them grow as big as they can for the season in a good sized pot. Maybe a 1 gallon, trim and shape along the way, but let them grow to get a nice sized stem before going into the small pot for the overwinter in a window full on bonchi style.

This plant is about 5 months old...need to pot it up for the summer now then I will put it in a true bosai pot for the winter.

Here is another of the same type plant in the same size pot.

Good luck with your grow brother!

Long story short...mother in law was into gardening, but when they retired they became full time RVers so now we have all their crap. Hence the frogs. They're a nice touch, and they were free. Not really a "froggy" guy, but keeping things pretty keeps momma happy...which in turn keeps her off my back about all the peppers.

OK Time for Round 2!

These are the new seedlings.

Red T. Scorp x2
Butch T x2
White 7 Pot x2
Dorset Naga x2
Jalapeno x1

Thought this was cool... A Triple leaf Red Trinidad Scorpion

A nice little hearty Jalapeno

These are about 2 weeks old, from dry seed to what you see in the pictures. I Germinate them in plastic containers wrapped in a wet paper towel.
Takes about 3-7 days for the seeds to pop. I then put the rooting seeds in to Sphagnum Peat Moss mixed with compost.
Then the babbies are put in to the incubator for about 2 days. After the 2 days, I pull them out to start up on some fresh air and a Solo cup.

I started using Rubber Mini Muffin trays to hold them while in the incubator. This allows me to pop out each plant individually, preventing the other seedlings from being disturbed.

As for lighting, I am using 4x 26w (100w eq) 6500k
One 26w (100w eq) 3500k
and a single, yet GIGANTIC, 68w (300w eq) 2700k

For a Total of 198watts and estimated 10,000+ lumens
During the day I pull the potted ones out for some good old sun.

YES!

Edit: Thanks!
And Thanks To BAMA for the Bahamas Goat seeds. I just got them and put them in paper towels.

Disaster!

Through the night my seedlings got white powdery mildew. :tear:

My White 7s are GONE, and so are 2 ButchT's. I had no idea a fungus could kill them like that in just 1 night.

I hit them with 3% H202 mixed with tap water and that killed the mold, but burnt the infected areas to a crisp.

So now I got better Air moving through, as well as a new respect for cleanliness. All the other seedlings are still alive, but hanging on by a thread. I haven't seen but 1 small spot of mildew on the soil since. The next set of leaves has come in on the Scorps and they are looking good.

So the last few days were a little depressing, until today...
"Sweet and savory mixture" is Here!!! :dance:

THANKS BILL!
