Am  looking for the original red superhots but want to make it a larger trade so if you have a trade list it would be nice. I have many varieties to trade. send pm.   Thanks.

Its been a long time since I have been on this forum and c that there are a lot of new names here but couldn't resist  after seeing this thread, lot of work putting these back in order though.  My interests have changed and contemplating what to do with a lot of this collection. Roughly 2000...

very curious, any updates?

parker49 did you ever find jalapeños you were looking for?

Hello to all, don't get on much anymore and have never gotten involved in any type of massive seed swaps or trains and was wondering,  is there some sort of list that is published as to the contents of this box or is it just a crap shoot?  Since GW got bought out there has not been a good source...

I'm stumped then.  6.5 is optimal ph for peppers but if they are doing good in a lower ph then I would leave it low.

Optimal ph for pepper plants is not that low. I could be wrong but regardless which way you are growing them don't you have to keep the ph at whatever the plant needs it 2 be?

Raise your ph closer to 7

Seems to me that light may also be an issue, even if the plant was full of leaves shouldn't there b more branching. unless they are some sort of wild variety.

Lots of people overlook the pubescens species and with less than 8hrs of sun are a perfect plant to grow. Some of them are crazy hot as well. 

You mentioned lid, do you have a lid on your seedlings?

No need for nutes, you do not want top growth just roots. Clonex gel and Clonex liquid and they will root. Don't forget the air stone. And as stated above minimal light and no light directly above.

ms1476, very well said.

Phil is correct, there are many reasons for bud drop.
