    What about this fertlizer?

    Thanks for the reply, Harry! I was thinking about buying something to measure the pH, but since most of the plants seem happy, I postponed that (I still want to do it before transplanting the plants to bigger pots).

    Help Identifying Pepper

    Wow....it´s frustrating how many people want to fool others on the internet to get some money. If you think buying chilli seeds on e-bay is risky, try to order some ´genuine´Omega, Breitling or Rolex watches...
