Is calcium chloride a good way to deliver calcium to the plant? I want to mix it in water for a foliar spray, but not sure of what concentration to use. I don't want to use egg shells, nobody here eats eggs. I have pelletized lime but not sure how much to use, and it's too late to work it into...

So I'm getting mixed answers about this. I see 1 T to a quart and 1 T to a gallon. For a foliar spray what is the desired concentration?

I store mine in a plastic ziploc bag inside the refrigerator. Seeds should be good for years.

I thought that handwriting looked familiar! Al is awesome.

I do remember reading 24/7 lighting fueled the most growth, and I think it was all the way up until plant out time with no change in cycle. A member here did some experiments, I think it was wordwiz but I can't remember. I read his experiment log on the gardenweb forum, though I can't find the...

Plants looking much nicer under the light! Good job.

Very nice looking plants you have. In no way did you get carried away with the varieties. I have over 100 plants and I am also a first time grower LOL Where in Michigan are you at?

Some of the different varieties of Chiltepin they have, Jamaican Hot Chocolate, Black Cayman, and Hinklehatz.

When I look at all the plants I got from CCN (60 of them), they all look inferior to the ones that I grew myself. One is looking much like that cherry above, and I can't seem to do anything about it. All the others have some degree of yellowing going on while all my plants are looking nice and...

Please don't WayRight. I for one and obviously many others of us are very interested in it and have been piqued by your experiences with it. Nevermind the doubters or haters.

madhatter, are those Chocolate Bhuts also received from asiasgarden or was it another source?

Those Yellow Bhuts are just beautiful. I want mine to grow faster now! They're still only a few inches tall unfortunately so pods are a long ways out. I wonder what the cross is. Bhut x Fatalii? Probably not. Bhut x 7 Pot Yellow? Bhut x ?????? Anybody know this Dave guy? franzb69, those...

Is it possible to ripen green peppers bought at the store in the same way that fruit ripens? i.e. paper bag with an apple or banana in it

If that's all your using it's probably not from fertilizer then. Perhaps it's a nutrient deficiency then? Some more knowledgeable people around here should be able to tell you more specifically.

I heard somewhere that green chiles are considered vegetables and red chiles fruits. Personally, I have never had a green unripe chile that I thought was better than a ripe red one. However it seems that every chile sold at the grocer is always unripe. WHY!? The Jalapeno, for example. It is...

I always hear that it's not possible to use the seeds from them due to the way that they are dried. I tried getting some of the dried Bhuts from India and they were definitely dried through a smoking method. Very smoky. I wish I could find some that were simply dehydrated to get their real...

Those brown spots on the Bhut looks like it might have some sort of bacterial thing going on? Don't think it will kill it or anything. Any leaf drop?

Most plants look fine and some very good to me, maybe a bit of fertilizer burn or something on the Thai plant that got its ass kicked? That's what the tips of the leaves looked like on mine that got burned. The yellowing leaves on that Thai plant with pods could be because of too much water, too...

That probably is a much better idea. I was also thinking of adding some Calcium Chloride into the mix for some Ca.

Sounds like they must be crosses especially if it wasn't even Chocolate. Any pics of what the Naga looked like?
