woot, good job DownRiver!

SO what kinda pepper plant is that???? lol

If it is a lace bug, you prob wont have to worry too much I dont think. Ive read they are rather plant specific. Ive seen one or two on my peppers (not sure if they were actually eating them), but once some sunflowers started growing from leftover bird seed, they swarmed those things like crazy...

First thing that pops into my head is a Lace Bug. But, i dont know if lace bugs have a wing case like lady bugs, so maybe its not. Is it on a pepper plant, or something else in your garden? http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4012/4485216755_b71fc636e9_z.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lace_bug

WHere do you get your gypsum from?

Its crazy how it can be 95 outside, then im waking up at 5 am and having to run outside in the hail and rain to save my plants from almost certain disaster. Id love more rain, just not like that lol. Nature, you scary!

LOL, i think ill hafta pass. I just needed to vent some, ive never really noticed or cared for weather until i started to grow peppers this year. And this wind lately is thoroughly pissing me off. Hope it warms up for ya soon SuperHot!

Winds have been blowing at 30-40 mph all day, its like 95. Outta no where it starts raining and hailing. Gotta love living in north Texas. A/C on all day, heater at night....Love it.

This turned out to be rather informative for me lol. Thanks AJ for the clear cut information. I myself was curious if the heat stopped overall growth along with production. Glad to hear the beasts dont go into a complete shutdown lol. I need to look into getting some orange habaneros for next...

Well this is my first year growing, so i really dont know lol. Id like to know myself when i should stop pinching.

I believe the theory behind it is that it makes the plant focus its resources on growing larger, instead of growing fruit. Once it gets to a suitable size, then stop pinching the buds, and it grows a larger amount of fruit in the long run due to being a larger plant overall. That of course is...

Awesome!!! Hey thanks for showing a Douglah, ive been waiting to see ya put one up. This was my first year and ive made every mistake possible haha :) I only have one plant now and its a Douglah, and seeing that nasty lookin D put a smile on my face, thanks a bunch!

When the wind is goin crazy, i stuck em into a 5 gal bucket, but i only have a handfull of plants, not sure what u could do with the amount you have.

I agree, im in North Texas myself, and at the moment im expecting it to snow in April. So im waiting till halfway thru then to put anything permanently outside lol. Temps have been alittle too nice lately,so we prob will have some kinda mid summer blizzard lol.

Howdy folks, Well recently my plants have seemed to go down hill rapidly. The epsom salt I used on them did a heck of a job on making the new leaves darker green. But 5/6 plants have just been going down hill big time, and ive noticed some dark brown spots on 2 of them. 2 others are not going...

WOW, i am now about to spend the next hour googling "black pearl" lol

I might have to steal this idea lol, ive been just letting it leak all over the inside of the aquarium i keep mine in while indoors. Looking great so far btw Patrick!

Great advice woody3says, your right about less is more usually lol. Thats one thing i did remember to do, thanks :). That could be a possibility, it does get warm when i have them inside. They are in a aquarium facing a south window to keep my cats from getting to them :).... I put em...

Wow thanks, ill def try that out then. Seems like they really need it, cause theve been growing rather slow, and they usually get full sun for 7-8 hours then another 8 hours of crappy flouro lol. Do you think that leaf curling is from clacium deficiency? If you can even see it in the pic lol.

Lol thanks a bunch, I didnt plan on using it, was just another thing I found in the garage haha. Thanks for the suggestion.
