Haha lol i can tell those chillies are from Fijian ppl only bcos Fijian people like their chillies green. Bongo chilli when it goes red tends to give you gastric problems. Well that's what the Fijians say. Lucky you got your hands on those seeds. The small jungle chilli is very nice. It has a...
A little question guys. I did some changes to my greenhouse to reduce the temperature in there and increase air circulation. I can see a huge drop in the temperature but the breeze is still missing. Do you guys thing the sunlight will be enough for the plants.
Thanks for the recommendation. Got it today. I used half strength.
Thanks for the tip Mezo. These are the kind of things we newcomers are not aware of. I have filled the pots to the brim this time.
Thanks guys for all the suggestions. I will definitely get the fert. The potting mix i got was labelled premium potting mix at the supplier. I think it's also been the rainy weather and all. The temps been going up and down like anything.
I follow your suggestion. Any idea what fertiliser to use though. I have been using seasol but these seedling haven't had any yet.
I haven't been feeding them anything. I do probably need more air circulation..
So time for another update.
The cayenne red new plants are starting to fruit now. The overwintered plants have been giving very dimented looking pods but the new ones have some beautiful fruits on them.
Then there's the inferno plant i got from bunnings. It's got some rip pods. I am...
Can someone advice me on this. My previous seedlings were all healthy and happy but these new seedling aren't very. The leaves seem to be yellow in colour and the stems very thin. Each plant seems to only have 2-4 leaves. These are my super hot lot. Scorpion, red bhut, choc bhut, butch t etc...
Yeah yesterday i tried a jeneric looking chilli which looked like a birdseye but bigger and i swear i was hopping up and down screaming the "F" word. Yoghurt, cucumber and what not. I am a wuss chilli hobbyist.
Very disappointed. I only just got seedlings from my Butch T to only find out the moruga is now the hottest. These titles change more like everyday. Anyone is AUS growing moruga.
I came across this brilliant idea to make a solar powered greenhouse heater but i really must be dreaming about it. I was thinking of connecting let's say a 14w solar panel to a battery with a transformer in between. Then the battery can be used to operate a small heater of some sort. I will...
I don't get much wind iin my backyard only bcos i am sorrounded by other townhouses and i am at the back. BUt i still will be securing this to the fence wall on one side and pegging the other 2 sides. I've also put really heavy pots on the pvc structure itself to give it some weight.
My alcheapo greenhouse all set to go. Not bad for $40.
And this is my bargain from ebay. Pots for $8 total. The newish looking black ones on the right of the image are mine though. The rest i got all for $8.
Ok so someone tell me how long it takes for habanero's to ripen. I'm drooling...
Looking at the forecast for the month and bcos it's raining cats and dogs here i just spent about an hour soaking in the rain moving all my pots inside. The pergola is half taken and partners not happy with that. Reckons i am going crazy (might be right), and that i won't do this for my own...
