"Say my name."   Best scene ever written for TV.

Just saw a PBS documentary about "plant behavior".  The part about the wild tobacco just blew me away.

I was thinking about getting one of those, but I just know my wife would turn it off while I was watering the garden and it would snap me back across the yard.  :rolleyes:

Keep an eye on those peat pellets.  It seemed like they were either too wet or too dry when I used them.  It was hard to find a happy medium.  I felt much better when everything moved to good soil.

  I might actually try that.  I need to do a night op to try to catch whatever buggers have been eating my butches, 7 pots and Brain Strains.  I call that my "Gilbert Grape" section.       Anyone?  Anyone?

I love the grooves on those habs.  Not sure I've seen habs quite like that. 

Wow.  When I recieved a few of these seeds from MegaSpokaneman a few months back, I didn't realize this was gonna be one of the new popular varieties this year.  Hope mine pod up soon.

  I grew some Burpee "habaneros" last year that turned out to be Hungarian Wax.  They all started growing upwards, although they weren't as pointy as yours.

  I used straight topsoil last year with ok results, but remixed it with peat, perlite and a mix of nutes and have had better luck in my buckets this year.  Since we're posting porn:     This is my most productive plant, a Bhut thats big and podding up like crazy.     My number two is this...

You reviewers just aren't human!  :shocked:   I'll maybe try one of the several varieties I'm growing this year, but I guarantee it will be a complete wussyfest from start to finish.

Wow.  I have a couple of these plants, though not as big and leafy as yours, and no buds yet.  Now I'm wicked excited for it to pod up!

This is my first year with Dorsets, and now that I look it is kind of wedge-ish.         I hope I get some mature ones as big as some of the y'alls!

My big Reaper is finally putting out pods.  That leaves Brain Strain, Butch T, and 7 Pots (which hate me) as my only slackers.  I'm going to head to Southern States or my local big box store on Monday to pick up some Perlite and compost and try to fill some more buckets so I can finally get my...

I'm no scientist, but this makes a lot of sense. If the plant perceives it's seeds are being eaten, it might stimulate it to start ripening so the seeds would be ready for distribution. To carry it a step further, nearby plants might also recieve the chemical signals and may start to ripen as...

I have a reaper that fell on the ground and dried out over 2 days.  When I righted it and watered it all the leaves fell off.  I took care of it, watered, added nutes and it's on it's way back with plenty of new leaf growth.  Two weeks ago it was just a stick.  I think I might even get pods from...

Just had to adjust my watering.  It's been pretty wet here, but everything seems to be making it.  Plants are podding up nicely, got some tomatoes ripening.  Pumpkins and watermelons starting to blow up.  Life's been good, other than the whole world outside my little garden.

Yeah, but most people look at a tomato as an upward growing plant (like a pepper) as opposed to a vine (which is what it really is).

An update on my spindly, sickly black tomato:  It looks much healthier with more tomatoes.  It's still skinny but the leaves look much healthier and it's almost as tall as I am. I've been using a new nute regimen for about 2 weeks, and while I couldn't swear that that's what fixed it, I see no...

I water when they wilt or for adding nutes.  I grow in 5 gallon buckets and give them just enough water to perk them up, usually roughly a half gallon each.  

First Reaper Pods!     My bigger plant still has none.  I've got a scrawny stick one that fell over and dried out for a few days, but now its coming back.  On an interesting note, I found one today I didn't even know I had.
