    pests Please Help Identify Bugs

    Hi all. So it has been a decent success with my cheap indoor grow light but now today I found I have a bug problem. There is a bunch of tiny moving brown dots on my pepper leaves and I am seeking help on what they are and how best to get rid of them. Pepper is indoors on a desk with grow light...

    lighting Desk Lamp Grow Light

    Ok. Well, it has been a short while, but now my two little plants have started to show themselves, so hopefully tomorrow evening I will be able to hook up my light and see how it does. I am very interested. And on another note, since space is limited, I also ordered one of these for fun. Going...

    That looks like a nice plant too, but unfortunately from what I see seeds are only available in the UK.

    misc Looking For A Short Bushy Pepper.......

    Just a tiny update. I did sucessfully germinate 2 black pearl seeds as well as 2 Medusa seeds. They were germinated in a coffee filter and had a good start when I transplanted them into 4" pots on Saturday. With any luck, I should see sprouts this coming week! Just hopefully that I get something...

    Thank you for that one. Another good candidate to possibly try next year. At this rate, I will no longer be growing my usual hot chilis, but rather a whole lot of neat short peppers. Lol.

    misc Looking For A Short Bushy Pepper.......

    Thank you all for the help and suggestions. I really like the Biquinho pepper plant. However, I did luckily source some Black Pearl seeds semi-locally, in my province, and ordered them. Hopefully they will arrive early this week. I will try out 1 or 2 seeds and get them going and hope for the...

    misc Looking For A Short Bushy Pepper.......

    Hi there. So, just out of curiosity, does anyone possibly know of a short 'bushy' pepper available? Not variety or type specific. I guess I am not too sure what else to ask. These will be for growing in a flowerbed or for looks, not really for eating. I had Numex Twilight in the past, and...

    lighting Desk Lamp Grow Light

    Great, thank you for the input as it is exactly what I was looking for. I guess I could have been a bit more clear in what I said earlier. I had originally intended for it to be used to start the plant only and not fully grow it as hopefully I will be able to have it catch up to the rest that...

    lighting Desk Lamp Grow Light

    Ok. Sorry for the second thread about grow lights, but this is about another grow light and its usage. Thsis one is a simple desk lamp with a full spectrum NOMA LED grow light bulb. I had seen something like this for sale online, but I picked up the lamp used cheap today online, and a local...

    Yeah, spare room in the basement. But That is a great point about blocking the colored light.

    lighting New To Grow Lights

    Thank you all. I too was a bit worried about using a grow tent, but thought why not. So I did order that too now. Price is almost way too good to be true for what I ordered. 32" x 32" tent, LED grow light, grow bags, and a fan and filter for it as well. Once I receive the package I will share it...

    lighting New To Grow Lights

    Hi all. So I started early this year and had very good success with the exception of a couple of varieties. So yes, I was a bit bummed out as these were ones I had looked forward to growing this year. But anyways, I have had enough with this weather as we just got hit again with a 2+ day storm...

    raised-bed Well, 2021 Is A Wash!

    Just a little update... It has been abnormally hot and dry here for the past long while, along with no rain and none in teh forseeable future. With that said, I had given up on this years grow and have been attending my strawberries and flowers and wrote off my peppers, and paying no attention...

    raised-bed Well, 2021 Is A Wash!

    Thank you. I have used that in the past, but when I ran out, I bought a bottle of liquid version. But as this year is a wash, I may just go grab another box of it, as I do remember that my plants did do well with it when I used it. If memory serves me right, the one I had was labelled as for...

    raised-bed Well, 2021 Is A Wash!

    It is nice to see and hear of others having a good go at it this year. Heck, even seeing others peppers is joy enough to make me smile when mine have not worked out this year.

    raised-bed Well, 2021 Is A Wash!

    Thank you all for the help, replies, and encouragement. It is greatly appreciated. I may try somethingelse yet, but not feeling like it will go anywhere. Heck, we're sitting at just a hair above 50 Fahrenheit currently again. The nights here in Manitoba have been crazy this year. Heck along our...

    raised-bed Well, 2021 Is A Wash!

    Well, there is no scientific evidence, but in the last couple of years, the peppers I had planted were not as big or as bearing as in the first few years. Yes, our weather this year has also been very poor compared to years past, which may also be a contributing factor. I had just thought that...
