I remember your plant.. it did end up being a nice size plant you had.. can't remember if it yielded much. My plants new growth is green and roots about to hit the reservoir.Pr0digal_son said:

What kind of lights are you guys growing under?
I've been using a 25W fluorescent grow light so far, but I just ordered a 45W LED panel, and I'm super excited about trying LED lights for pepper plants!

So far it's looking like I may have timed it right for my plant out in May this yr
I put 2 in #2 pots yesterday, and they're outside. This time of the year they do better in pots as the dirt is still too cool. Being they had the roots swirling at the bottom I guess the others need larger shoes. No forking or flowering attempts yet. I should be right on schedule. Maters hit the dirt this week...peppers will follow 2-3 weeks later.

Wish I could say that! I have those 3.5 months of too hot weather where they just drop the flowers. Maybe just maybe this variety won't care. I doubt it... Regardless, we gonna give it hell
Geez Scott, you thought to bring one or two in to sit in the 72 degree A/C in a southern exposure during those months?
.....I think somebody's sandbagging!!

So...after re sowing in a more simplistic soil mix, I have a handful.
BUT....
I think I'm making this one my contestant plant.
we all know guru will have a good yield every season.. just hope he doesn't under estimate the rest of us.

I think this will be my entry, don't mind the construction in the background
Also, noticing pretty light colored leaves, anyone know what would be causing that? I've been adding weak fert mix maybe it's time to go heavy handed on the dosage.

Me, I'd say a larger pot to start with. And then add nutes in small doses. I favor liquids at this stage, 1/4 dose, watch the plant, add more after 7 to 10 days, if the desired results haven't been obtained. You can't take them back once added, so more smaller doses is what works best for me. This is how you learn your application rates. If you decide to go heavy at this stage, have an extra plant just in case that gets a lighter dose
Just sayin'...Tiny!!!

An interesting development: It turns out my LED light is better than I thought. It advertised "growing thicker stems," which I thought was a load of crap until I compared my YBS's with each other.. The ones under the LED look incredible - tight growth, short spaces between the nodes. The same exact plants under the T5s are tall and a little leggy, and when I moved them over to the LED the growth tightened again. Always happy to see something work as advertised. I've been really happy with the light so far! It's called MaxBloom X4 COB, I got it on Amazon for $220 or something.
Anyways, here's my growdown plant (most likely):
I'm posting from work and having issues with my phone internet today (probably due to this "Nor'easter") and can't email myself the photo of the leggy plant.. I'll do it once I get home so you can see the difference; it's pretty remarkable!

Did anyone else notice this difference between lights? It's so interesting
