  Thanks Paul, you're right that it didn't look quiiiite like that. It also hasn't shown up anywhere else so I'm happy about that!   I'll be starting to get the garden ready for plant out and making some up-potting moves soon so stay tuned for pics of larger grow bags in action

Here's my tortilla plant        

Does this look like BLS to anybody? I chopped it because I figured it wasn't worth the risk even if it's not that. Hope I got it before it spreads.    

Im actually in Ann Arbor area. I used to just drop the pH, first with vinegar and then with pH down but I still had problems. I just looked back at the water report, I think its the sodium at 60ppm and the chloride at 110

Just want to show off a few plant pictures. The ones in the smaller cells have taken off way more quickly since I switched water sources. I had been using my city tap water before, which comes out with weirdly high levels of sodium, calcium, and chloramine as well as some other stuff—altogether...

My Lemon Drop definitely smells kinda funky, I would say more like a green pepper though

These suckers certainly like shoots don't they?  

Thanks Paul! Of course that's cause I'm hiding the bad parts, but I'm happy with what I've got that's working well! That's as long as I don't watch you all too closely and see how quickly your plants grow compared to mine.    But from tips on this site I've started to see better growth with...

          I guess I deserve that...   But this plant will grow taller and stronger than the corn which made the tortilla it feeds off

    This is definitely very exciting, and it's made all the more exciting for me because I know I have the best cross. Out of all the possible crosses.    Here it is!

  That's pretty consistent with my Anuum experience from PL. Chinense have been fine but in my Anuum tray this year all of the empty spots are PL seeds. 

Little update with pictures. Lots of plants are growing pretty slow, I'm just showing the pretty ones!   Got life on the straw test seedling! I started using distilled water and pHing thoroughly, as well as decreased watering on it and it looks like no herbicide damage!     Goronong is still...

Looking good enough for me over here! Dont think I have any of the chinense pheno but might be a little early to tell on some

I dont think they look too bad at all. Maybe a little something with the crinkled leaves. Those purple stems are super common on seedlings like that. If anything just make sure to not let them stay as wet as they are in that picture for long!

Oh boy I wish you hadnt asked. Not great, it unfolded one leaf a bit and veeeerrry slowly. I assume its from overwatering because for a while I kept it way over watered, didnt know how effectively straw was holding moisture. Now the straw at the bottom is rotting maybe drawing N out of fert...

Love the big cotys on those Datils and that last shot is a thing of beauty.   I feel you on the slow growth and funky patches on superhots. I killed a whole bunch last year because I had that issue and tried to correct, adding extra fert to my already high ppm water. They all just dried out.  ...

Are you using tap water? Do you pH it and do you know the ppm of it before you add ferts? I've had a problem like this and I think it was caused by water with too many solutes or maybe bad pH, my tap water comes out around 400 ppm and around 8.5 pH and when I add a little fert it's just too...

Did some grafting! Took this Aji Ahuachapan with nice roots growing fast and wedge grafted an MoA to it. Just for fun, hoping it grows faaast once it heals up (if it heals up)

Wow I didnt even know I threw a red herring in there! I looked back at it and thats a tiny little piece of something that just looks exactly like a hook. Bottom right is a white line that is the real hook, shot from the top so it doesnt look like one. I swear I wasnt trying to be thaaat tricky

Nice glog! i saw your goronong pictures and thought that was very cool! I have the same thing going on with goronongs, one is purple and a couple are green. Basil and mint cuttings looked amazing. Good luck getting those intumescences figured out.I hope theyre not bothering your plants too much
