i only water once the dirt is dry about 2-3cm down into the soil, and i have stopped using fertilizer the past 2-3 weeks as i was thinking maybe i have giving it to much fertilizer in the past, like everytime i watered i had tomato fertilizer in the water so i stopped using it like 2-3 weeks...

is the green bubble the fruit that are slowly coming outoff the reaper flower?

Thanks, already subscribed your youtube couple days ago and have watched some of them already. im collecting pollen of my bird eye chili and trying to add that onto the reaper chili but the reaper chili is being difficult, have a second reaper plant that is about to flower in hope it will be...

Thanks, i guess i misunderstood the video abit in start then, sorry. But yea all them flowers is a bit hard to remember so ive been pollinating them many times and sometimes the flower drops, so i was worried that maybe my fingering the flower to much with pollen could be the cause of flower...

My issue arent really how to pollinate them but to keep track on which one have been pollinated already as i feel i maybe sometimes pollinate the same flower over and over many times which maybe can be one of the reasons the flower drop aswell as im touching it to much with a Q-tip

I'm wondering if anyone got any tips on how you keep control over which pepper flowers have been pollinated and not? Would i be able to use a penn marker to mark the flower with a dot without harming the flower/plant? Sometimes its hard to remember which flowers been pollinated already so...

not sure what you mean with "such troubled plant" but ive had alot of issues with my growing since i started 2.5 years ago, one time i though my reaper would die as it looked very depressing, after some time and love it recovered and is now my second biggest chili plant i have growing. So just...

ive seen worse stages of plants to recover. like this one here, its one my basil clonings i tried to do, it probably would be faster to just start over but i can slowly see a change on it, its slowly removing its dead leaves and getting better. You can see the progress happening below the dead...

Stick your finger into the dirt, if its still wet about a inch down wait and check again the next day. its what i do i use 16 hours on and 8 hours off with light.

the plant looks a bit small for transplant but maybe its because of the angle of picture making it look small. give it some more time i would say, but the curling of leaves could be another sign of poor drainage, overwatering, or not good enough oxygen to the roots because of the soil.

it seems like temperature was the issue, alot of the flowers are now showing the stigma and flower doesn't drop as fast i touch it anymore. allowing temp to drop to like 18-19C during night and then heaters turns it back to 22-23C at day. @Karpasruuti Thanks :)

the little chlorine they have in the water i doubt will have much effect on the plants like all other chemicals and shit our cars and everything else sprouts out to the plants in the wild. my indoors plants are healthy and have gived me 2 plastic bags full of bird eye chili and they have been...

wait before the first set of leaves have grown fully before transplanting

i'm trying to do the same following this guide Cross pollinating chilli peppers. and the birth of a new chilli variety! Trying to cross polinate Reaper with bird eye chili, im not doing it for any special purposes, for sure would be cool to have your own type of chili but i just feelt the...

i fill up bottles of tap water some days before using the water so the water is in room temp and wont shock the roots from to cold water. But it probably depends on where you live about what water to use, rainwater is probably the best.

So temperature below 15C is fine for any chili plants then? because i was told on the other forum that chilies under 20C wont produce fruit its why i have been so paranoid of it going under 20c. if it can handle 10-15C then i can start growing it outdoors in the summer that i have been avoiding...

my Carolina is about 8-9 months old now, maybe close to a year. but everytime they flower they dont produce fruit, but the temperature have always kinda been above 23C until yesterday as i though thats what chilis wanted.but im working on a fix now, i just removed the greenhouse heater from the...

another question about the temperature, Do you measure the temperature in the air or in the soil? ive always measured the temperature by the soil, everytime the temp in the soil goes below 20C a tube greenhouse heater turns on. should i focus more on the air and not the soil maybe? should i...

i might struggle getting it down to 15C but i can defiantly get it down to 18-20C since im doing it indoors or il have to freeze. and this picture is what i mean with a oscillating fan, put it on lowest strenght (1) and let it do a 180 degree turn, could it help or will it just do more damage?

ok thanks i can do that without problems, what is the lowest i can try? and should i be using a oscillating fan? i read that in a guide on here earlier, but from other sources on another forum i was told chilis didnt like a cold fan blowing on them, but that forum werent 100% dedicated to chilis.
