Hi All, Really need some help identifying this disease or pest that has been destroying this specific plant leaves for a few seasons now. If i remove all the leaves with the issue and the new leaves are fine and recovers normally for a short time. these are inside plants, so don't have any...

wonder what they are then? anyone have any idea?, are they harmful?

Hi All,   Can someone tell me if these little pests are Fungus Gnats Larvae? The picture is where I have lifted a 9cm seedling pot off the top of the capillary matting? which I have lifted out of the water revisor as I also believe it is get to saturated with water and on some of the seedlings...

Hi all,   This isn't the same problem I was having but to save me creating a new topic. I thought I would re-use my topic :-)   My seedlings as they are today.         The ones that are concerning me, are the Prairie Fire ones below. The tips of some of the leaves are going dry and crisp(see...

I have order this feed called "Chilli Focus"? not sure if anyone has used it? but it has got some great reviews here in the UK on amazon   http://www.amazon.co.uk/Chilli-Premium-Concentrated-Liquid-Fertiliser/dp/B003VO8I9W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1424721102&sr=8-1&keywords=chilli+focus

cold water from tap, but its now setup on a capillary reservoir so by the time the plant get the water its at room temp. so for feeding what would you recommend? could I feed from the top as I say they are on a capillary system now so not sure the feed would get through to the plant as well?  ...

Ive been keeping them on the dry side more than anything. for feed I haven't other than the nutrients that are in the seedling soil. didn't think I had to feed them till they flower?

Yes, I thought so I have moved the lights a little more away will have to see how its goes, also some of the leaves are a little wrinkled what could cause this as these don't all seem black?

Thanks for the reply. I have raised the lights a little now. I also mad a post on the black leaves in the growing forum. but I think you have answered that question. some of the leaves are a little wrinkled too?

Hi   The leaves on some of my chilli seedlings are going black and some are going wrinkled?, I have them under a growlight system. I had the light about an inch or so above the highest growth. the soil temp is around 20C I have now raised it a little as I have also added a capillary water...

Thanks for the comment Runescape, I not 100% if they are still healthy at the moment, Ive just purchased and added a capillary water reservoir today. So as I have had the light canopy off I could have a good look at how they are doing, picture below of the canopy lights off and the capillary...

Hi all,   My grow-light system arrived today and I have set it up so fast :dance:  and it is now providing light 16/7 here are a couple of photos :-) doesn't look to bad to me, Ive set the bulbs about an inch above the seedlings maybe a little more, I believe that is the correct sort of...

  Thats OK and thanks, Once they get too the max height of the light, they will be going outside anyways as I don't think wouldn't have the room to keep them indoors. Plus we will have more sunlight by then anyways. also I bet there is a way I could modify the stand height, the two bulbs in it...

Hi thanks for the advice, I had already ordered my grow light system, plus I'm never going To have a whole room as the above as I don't have the space to do a setup like that here in the UK, we are really limited in space here in the UK compared to USA most of us have small houses and small...
