Day 73: Rebirth   I did a new timelapse. Unfortunately I have a few shots of dark and camera moved a little during timelapse since I was too cheap to buy "The Frame" for my GoPro cam. Anywho there it is!     Group shot   Bhut Jolokia   My first non pepps germinated (Tomatillos, Ontario Light...

  I actually have to plug it during the whole thing, otherwise it dies off after 2 hours or so... it wouldn't be a great timelapse this way hehe   Teurf

  I plugged in my Gopro again under nightlapse with a shot every 30 min. Gonna leave it there for a week and over, to see the peppers regrow their leaves.   Teurf

Day 65: E nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti     Amen.   I thought it would be easier this year since I had good results topping last year. But it killed me again. I was lacking space under the lights, I figured it would give me an additional 2 weeks to figure things out in terms of...

Wow welcome to the jungle man!   Nice grow, can't wait to see this year's grow. Good luck!! as if you needed it...   Teurf

WTB HEDGEHOG OMG   you got my gf completely crazy with that little buddy! nice grow box bro   Teurf

Very nice to see you grow some rocotos, can't wait to see them!   I did rocoto rellenos with frozen imported rocotos last year and man were they good and spicy; but I sure hope to redo it with some fresh ripe rocotos by the end of the summer :)   I must confess you inspired me to sew my own...

Day 54: Foliar feed   Hey guys, my peppers were beginning to wilt slightly so I fed them plain water from the top and tried foliar feeding with my ocean grow. 5ml for a liter. Lets see how it turns out.   Dark green is becoming more dominant; we've had a few clear days here in Montreal for the...

  Actually, the lights were on at the beginning of my timelapse. When I woke up I turned the lights off before leaving for work.   When the lights are on, there is absolutely no movement, thats why I removed it from the video. Next time, I will raise the light fixture to have better light...

Hi,   This is a real quick video of a few hours of growing. This is 720p, shot every 2 min. Teurf

  It might only be the angle of the shot hehe, but seriously you are right, plus the color of the leaves is much better. What I don't know yet is how frequently will I fertilize them... each watering seems to be a lot given I water them about once a week...   Grow very compact....Je sais pas si...

Day 40   I fertilized the peppers. It seems like they liked the extra nitrogen. Some have gotten a little greener after the ferts.      Peace TEURF

I was away for a week at my parents-in-law so I didn't give much love to my peppers.   Yesterday I went to the hydroponics store to grab some nutes for my babies. I got vegetative growth nutes and humic acid. I opted for Quebec sourced ferts, they said they were organic but I have my doubts with...

Feb 3rd: Day 35   Hey a little pic to see evolution. I think I will try an organic liquid hydroponics fert to water my plants as I've only put some compost for nutes into my mix.       Peace Teurf

Oh you sure did the right thing. Depending on how much light you have, the smaller you trim your plants, the better it will be.    The issue I have is that my Aji Amarillo has no source of artificial lighting, and the sun I get throughout the day is not enough even though I am South-West facing...

  For fungus gnats, I did a little trap with a bottle which I cut up the first third and taped it upside down to do a funnel, and but a little cider vinegar and soap at the bottom.   Next, bottom watering, letting the top dry out, and always watering with BTI (mosquito dunks) for larvae. For...

Jan 24th update   Hello all, its been almost a month since I sowed seeds. Peppers are looking good. No shock whatsoever from the transplant to beer cups.   Group   Pink Tiger   Rocoto Oro   Aji Amarillo   Cya later aligators TEURF

January 17th update, Potting up   This morning, while my girlfriend went out for an interview for a job, I snuck out of the bed and went in the closet to get the soil. Labeled all my plastic pots and did the sad job of letting go about all of the doublets I had.   I quickly potted all of my...

January 15th update: True leaves   Hi again,   Transplant time is about to begin. I went back to look at the remaining potting soil in my blue tub laying in the closet. I needed more so I added some remaining shrimp compost, coco peat and perlite. It is quite heavier than what I had last year...

  Instead of putting away half of it, I could just add more potting mix and perlite I guess? I did a soaking test putting it in a solo cup and wetting it. It compacted considerably letting away black juice from the compost.   I also have some leftover coco coir from last year. Would it be better...
