Thanks!  I am going with Tomato growers supply.  I have 12 bells picked out, and just waiting on tomato choices from my family.

Hello, I have a full round of chilis already sprouted. Next up is bells and tomatoes. I would like to try a new seed vendor this year. Any suggestions? I like lots of variety. Thanks, and happy new year!

March 5, pot up day.

What a difference a few weeks makes! I slightly potted up just after my last post (only time planned). They exploded! The trays are Bootstrap Farmer's 50 cell. I must say, these are some well built trays! Should last years.

Please ID! Pretty sure this is a springtail. I observed it for a while, then moved the whole plant to the sink. Tried to drown him out. Ended up having to remove the jiffy pellet wrapper and drown out again. He never jumped. Just crawled around quickly. This is why i am second guessing...

On Feb 14th, I started my 2nd round. It contains 24 of the following, all from Burbee: Jalapeno Early Jalapeno Gigantica Tequila Sunrise Crispy Hybrid Bell California Wonder 300 TMR Bell Sunbright Bell Tomatoes: Rutgers Better Boy Hybrid (22 seeds) Sweetie (26 seeds) Yellow Pear Gardener's...

Yep, lots of seedlings popping up now! Im just hoping that some of the varieties with 0 will start popping. I know with my 4 bulb setup, I consume/evap around 4-6 cups per tray every day. 48 hours and I go from excess standing water to bone dry. Gotta be careful and diligent! Im sure your...

Just over 2 weeks in, and I finally have at least 1 per tray. I will be moving sprouted plants together as soon as I have a full trays worth so I can begin fertilizing lightly. Up so far: Corno di Toro Giallo 0/14 Brown Egg 9/12 Fatalii Chocolate 6/20 California Wonder 0/5 Cubanelle...

Thanks!

What purpose does the cover provide? I assume it is just to help contain heat. My new setup is on the verge of overheating with covers on and lights on, so Im just making sure before I remove them all.

Much better!

Its my biggest fear, especially with 4 bulbs. I didn't like any led fixtures without spending a ton! T-5 is powerful as hell, but hot. I may run it with 2 bulb as well. It is overpowered for my needs, but I would rather buy once.

I will try to keep this updated better this year! I have a ton of plants still alive outside. I just pulled about a half gallon of pods today. I haven't decided if I am going to pull them all, or find more room (that i dont have) to plant. I would have to start going 3-4 plants deep...

Thanks guys

I would like to plant about 8 types of bell this year. I ordered all my chilis from whitehotpepper. Who has a cheap selection of bells?

Thanks!  White Hot had everything but the chocolate hab.  I just placed an order!

Hey guys, I need 20-50 seeds of the following: Bahamian Goat, Chocolate Habanero, Cumari do Para, and Carolina Reaper.  Feel free to point me to a store.  I don't know what is around right now.  I have no problem paying.  I just can't pay $4 for 10 seeds like some stores charge.   Thanks!

  For future reference, put the plate on the scale, then press the zero/tare button.  Then load the plate up.

I have been out of town for almost a month.  Came home to a ton of storm damage.  My competition plants had a large limb on top of them all.  Really the plants dont appear to care, they are just bent over and compacted down.  I will get some cages to support them back upright.   This is the...
