    soil pH meter recs? Need to test soil and water and how to adjust

    Title says it all. Looking for recommendations for a pH meter that can be used for soil and water. I did some research online and think my tap water at home is about 8.5 pH. Ive been using it on my plants and think I have some nutrient lockout. If I find that is the case, so I get some...

    Can I eat it?

    Cut it in half and see what the inside looks like. It the inside looks good I would say it is still a maybe. If the insides look rotten, definite no.

    Catfish, trout (in cooler climates), even goldfish or a koi pond can all work. Ive also seen some systems with pacu or barramundi.

    pickling How do you pickle your superhots?

    There should be no problem pickling superhots like this. Sorry I didnt see this earlier I spend most of my time in the growing peppers section. The only thing to think about is that most superhots have much thinner walls than jalapeños. He says they are ready in a week and he likes them after...

    breeding unintentional cross

    Might have to do with change in temps. Crosses only happen in the seeds of a crossed plant. So for example you have a bhut next to a scorpion. The scorpion pollinates the bhut. The pods are still bhut. But the seeds inside that pod, when grown out, will be crossed.

    Transplanted to new pot too high (roots showing)

    You can pull the whole thing out and report into a larger pot. Those roots that are showing will also become woody and could make for a great bonchi in the future. https://www.fatalii.net/bonsai_chiles_bonchi

    Synchronized ripening

    I think you will ultimately get more pods if you pick ripe ones rather than leaving them on the plant, but those fully loaded plants with a ton of ripe pods certainly look very cool.

    pests Aphids!

    I have heard of Spinosad but never looked into it. I already had Azamax which has worked great on mites and the packaging says it also works on aphids. Will give them a check up today and squish any of the little buggers still hanging on.

    pests Genetically modified insects (leafhoppers, whiteflies, and aphids)

      Store bought tomatoes are the worst. NOTHING compares to a home grown, vine ripened tomato.   And the TOMATO is also the key ingredient in a good BLT. Lettuce is fine, bacon is always good. But a good, sweet tomato really makes it.

    overwintering Overwintering and watering

    Also pick up the pot when fully watered so you can compare how heavy it is to a drier and lighter pot. Are you going for dormancy or just cutting it back and planning to let it grow slowly indoors over the winter. This will make a big difference in how much water it needs as a growing plant...
