Got the iPhone auto-focus working just right for this one:     Not so much with this one:  

     

I'd like to grow one plant in a five gallon Home Depot paint bucket.  The problem is that I go away too often in the summer and may not always find somebody to water if needed.  What are some recommended  (I'll consider all options, but don't want the throw a lot of money at this) self watering...

At least one of these is going outside for the season in exactly twenty one days.  I should have time to get them ready, but I got things started so late this year and am getting worried.  I have to harden them off a little with some outdoor sun and wind time and need to make them stronger with...

    

The first set of true leaves is starting to come in!    

Very informative!   Both plants were "brought up." differently.  The one with darker (purple) leaves sprouted directly in soil, while the other with the more traditional green leaves spent weeks in a wet paper towel, then in a 24 hour (1/9) Hydrogen Peroxide to water bath, then back in a wet...

Good luck!   Welcome to the forum!

I need help from some of the experts here:   According to my labeling, both of these came from same pod (Pimenta de neyde x Bhut Jolokia F8) possibly (hopefully :)) crossed with a Yellow 7 pot that it grew right next to.   The problem is that the plants look nothing like each other!  I know it...

One or both of these is going outside for the season twenty-four days from now, so I need to grow them in a hurry.   I'm bombarding them with lumens.  Hard to get a complete picture of the setup, but I have six CFLs on the plants.  Five of them are 2,800 lumens and one of them is a smaller bulb...

   

  I took my daily set of out of focus pictures before I read this. I'll try tomorrow and let you know how it worked out.  I've tried tapping on the item I want to focus on, but haven't backed up.

 

Nice grow!     Whatever setup you have with your phone camera is much better than my iPhone's native camera app (tried a third-party paid camera app without improving anything).  Overall, I find that the iPhone camera and video cameras are awesome for most situations that don't require zooming. ...

I just realized that the two plants I'm growing are from seeds from the same pod, (#57 - if it is indeed a cross, maybe I'll name it "Heinz" :) ) so I can keep both and not have to worry about isolating.     Decisions - Decisions - Decisions!

This is a pretty Pepper:      

  I can get the plants going with just one of the lights, but I got everything started too late this season and need to encourage as much vegetative growth as I can, so I'm sacrificing my electric bill this month and throwing more lumens at them.  The CFLs are a good compromise.  More powerful...

My kludged up lighting system:  

This little tail never turned into a root and shriveled up and died, BUT I finally got a few seedlings started.   Come on down:   http://thehotpepper.com/topic/71335-dragon49s-2019-grow-log/
