the first flush always seem to take forever. ends up being like late july before i get a good harvest.

lots of rain, tornados, flooding. but nothing too bad happened to my garden. just some hail roughing up some plants.    the minirocotos are liking the cloudy days more though i think!     the thai hot peppers are flowering / fruiting in the small 2in pot lol  

open the pod is there something inside?   yea caterpillars sometimes eat a whole in them.

that looks just fine temporarily. after 1-2 weeks i would want you to transplant them out into full sun into their final spots with more room though.

yes you can go to any size container.   untangle some of the roots if they are rootbound

the vermiculite content really depends on how you are watering and the rest of your mix.   ---- mix content ----   since you are heavily using topsoil and compost they will already absorb quite a bit of water ( eventually will just be mud ) You don't need the extra water retention that...

how's the airflow?    pic of whole setup kinda?

probably didn't need the vermiculite but the mix is fine.

a lot more money in the pepper world now. Puckerbutt is the biggest player probably. with reaper, choc bhutlah, chris' rare seed collection, etc   Guinness world records now requires the test to be an average heat. so it must be sampled multiple times, the variety must be stable. This is to...

trying to get all the plant orders shipped this week.   only spent like 10 mins on my peppers this week, just making sure everything is still alive n chugging.   one of my plant failed completely, habanada just withered and died. so i have to replant another.   I guess the unattractive green...

  Nice! it is so hard to describe the biquinho heat to people. it's like a faint memory. not completely heatless like a bell pepper. but it's not hot either. 

  it's not just lux intensity.   the sun has more UV radiation that the plants have to get used to.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunlight#Spectral_composition_of_sunlight_at_Earth's_surface

used the old coco from  above and then needed some more so got some berger mix from local nursery.       one thing i didn't think about was that the irrigation lines are now too short to reach up to the pots. so i had to order some new 1/4 in line and replace all the lines. that took a while...

2-7 days place in full shade under a tree or something. indirect light is still pretty bright compare to indoors. (like shade is not completely black you can still see in it eh?) 2-7 days place in half day sun. evening and morning sun are less intense easier for plants to acclimate to. put near...

its like 9-12 $ shipping. i can fit 6 or 3 in a box.    6  * 3$ = 18$ + 12$ = 30$ 3 * 3$ = 9$ + 12$ = 21$

i tried growing full size ones and got nothing, that's why i'm trying the minis this year they should fruit easier? smaller fruits need less energy / water? they are out at the field not near me but i think i have 8 or so extra. they are about 10 inches, a good size for transplanting. i have 3...

i might have some extra mini rocotos

here's the 3 year old coco. much thicker now but still has some structure after i broke up the roots with a spade for a bit. mix in some fresh coco chunks or perlite or something to keep it fluffy and good to go. of course the disease chances are much higher though =\ lots of roly poleys (like...

sick 2016 grow. maximized your space lol look forward to see what you do with your acres!

check out white dog chiles in tulsa she will be doing some fairs you can attend. i'm in bartlesville a bit north of you. (FOR PLANTS) no one in the area will have stock for fresh peppers until july probably.
