Hi Everyone, This is not my first time growing peppers, however it is the first time I’ve only grown a single plant. I have had good luck growing in containers and it appears my luck may be running out(?) I was given a ghost last month that was a few inches tall and wasn’t root bound. I...

Thanks for the responses! @The_Northeast_Chileman - thanks for the links Ill be sure to read through them. I did some searching and found a few things buried deep in threads. I wasnt sure how to really describe it in search terms. @Capcom - Ive been feeding them every other watering with a...

Hello all, Ive been growing peppers successfully in pots over the last few years. Ive dealt with aphids in the past but havent seen this issue before. This last week Ive seen the top leaves on my peppers shriveled looking. The lower leaves seem ok. They are not dry feeling and I cant see any...

I've used black pepper sprinkled around the base of my potted peppers.  You could actually see the ants racing to leave the pot.  It's worked for me, maybe give it a try.   While this did keep them out of my pots, I had to also use Terro liquid ant bait as well to "control the population". -

Great topic, I came here today looking for this specific information.  Last year I took the sprouts (2-3") straight into 5 gal containers, I seemed to have issues with the roots not going deep and the bottom half of the container staying constantly moist all season. (even though I have drilled a...

I received a very nice package in the mail yesterday!   You went above and beyond my friend.  Good Karma headed back your way.   Thanks again Jim!!!!!     -

Yep, my Reaper and Ghost are starting to have yellow leaves here in KY.  It has been getting to the 50's at night lately. Maybe a season shift thing?       -

Really? Thanks man that's very cool! I do appreciate it. I'll keep trying too, some of those pods look fantastic. -

Boots and dirt?   Not sure if I'm playing right.   :surprised:       -

Not sure if you can find it in Sweden, but I had very good success with Azamax this year.     -

Man, I just found this wonderful section of THP.     Is there any room left on the boat for a new grower?     -K

  That made me chuckle. Thank you sir!     -

Thanks! My wife's friend called me Mr. Miyagi the other day as I was out watering them.

Yeah, not sure how I'd feel....Well OK, I'll be honest I'd be upset. I have wondered sometimes about poachers here at my house as some are potted in front of my place. You put a lot of time into growing, it sucks that someone is snatching them. I bet you could come up with a very creatively...

Thank you for the detailed information.  I could include more pics if it would help.  As of right now there are a handful of leaves that look exactly the same as the first pic.   When the plants were young we did have a lot of rain and humidity here in KY.  I believe it was something like 5...
