FiresOfNil · Jul 12, 2015

So, fellow chili pepper enthusiasts. I have completed my 72 hour time lapse sense I finished my indoor grow setup for my Jalapeño and Carolina Reaper pepper plants. As promised I said I would post a time lapse of these first 72 hours. So without further adieu, 72 hour pepper plant growth time lapse. Enjoy.

They do. You can see it get excited right before its light cycle.

Great vid, nice work!!

Exactly. Even in this brief vid, it shows why I disagree with 24 hour light cycles. Except for making clones.

Now you have to timelapse a few 24 hour cycles.

Nice - What kind of lights are you using?

2 generic cheap 12w PAR38 style Red/Blue LED floods that did a great job in the earlier growing, and then a 150w LED panel from China. There are more fleshed out LED brands out there with Grow/Flower features and various other cool things, but I just needed a well rounded spectrum on a simple panel.

The new panel was needed since the 12w LED's couldn't pierce through the canopy.

Awesome! Looking forward to further installments.

Looks like my reaper plant is growing rather phenomenally now, I will be looking at getting my second cam up within the next couple days and produce an HD close-up grow video of the reaper while my other video is in progress. What time cycle should I go for? I'm thinking over 1 week.

Hey could you tell us how you did the first time lapse?

Of course, I have a webcam and computer in the same room and simply recorded 24/7 (with some errors the first 2 nights) using simple open source software that takes pictures at an interval. Next one will be higher quality, and over a longer period. It is looking great so far!
