    bpiela 2020 grow + OW's

    I am not sure I can treat the outside for this.  I did ask the folks at Rutgers if it is in the soil and they told me no.  I have sterilized as much as I can.  I have eradicated the aphids.  I do think that I "helped" spread the virus by smooshing aphids by hand from one plant to another.  I am...

    wanted Looking for plants for sale

    I am looking for anything really.  Pretty much my entire crop of chinense peppers were wiped out by a Potato virus.  Just looking to get a few more plants for the garden this year.  I checked in at Juanitos.   They are sold out.  It looks like I have started looking for plants too late.  Most...

    bpiela 2020 grow + OW's

    Ok, Gotta count on what went down and what is potentially keepable.  I say potentially because I believe they look fine but if I see the leaves start curling, I will dump them as well.   It is hard to show what I have kept and when I didn't keep just because of the sheer numbers.  I have 189...

    bpiela 2020 grow + OW's

    Moved my OW's to the garage.  They are what brought the aphids in.  Not sure how I got the virus in the first place.  Could have been in a seed somewhere and then propagated to the other plants via aphids.  Looking at my OW's, I see some of the Potato Virus on new growth so those plants will...

    Tightly curled leaves

    So, I had dropped a couple of plants off at Rugers Plant Diagnostic Labs today to find out what is going on.  I already got a response back and it is bad.  The plants tested positive for the presence of a potato virus Y group virus (poty group).  The only solution is to destroy the plants.  Not...

    Tightly curled leaves

    Hello all,   I have noticed that a few of my plants have new growth where the leaves are very tightly curled.  I thought that might have been due to spider mites in the past, but I just don't see that pest anywhere right now.  Any thoughts?  I am wondering if I should just top off the new...

    dried Naturally dried pods

    Hello all, gotta quick question for you.  I had put some Sri Lanka Chile Red pods in a bowl and let them dry out naturally.  I did nothing to them, just let them sit in a bowl at room temp for a period of time and they all dried out.  But, some seem off colored and I wonder if it is because of...

    Jumping in with a corn experience.  Mine were taken down by a woodchuck.  It ate the bottom of each corn stalk until it fell over.  I actually saw him take down the last stalk.  Last time I grew corn.
