Just thought I post an update on my winter grow. Plants are looking super healthy and are getting big fast now. I think the feeding is working well. I topped some of the taller plants.
Thanks I sowed the seeds for everything both peppers and melons on Aug 20th. Ended up with 15 out of 16 varieties. Only the Butch-t seeds didn't germinate but that's OK cause I have 3 healthy Moruga's. I really only have room for 20 adult plants and I have 50 seedlings so I'll have to give some...

These are the watermelons im growing with my peppers. Good roots ready for transplanting into bigger pots. 43 days into the grow from seed.
Already budding up. When I get a male and female flower open at the same time I'll Pollinate. Only allowing one...
All my peppers are in standard 16oz solo cups (double cups). There at 4 to 8 true leaves. I water from the bottom with 4oz of water when there dry. I water by weight. Dry is when the cup is under 200g. I only water the peppers that are under weight that way I don't over water. I have 50 pepper...
This is the same plant that was suffering from the damping off. It's still going and has new growth. Everything this else in the grow is doing great as well.
Pinch and pull and use forceps if you have to. if it doesn't come out it won't grow up. Actually had about 5 out of 55 seeds that germinated do this.
Your only behind my winter grow bye two weeks so you can look at my pics and compare your growth rate to mine. Maybe you'll catch up if your not...
Though I give an update of the T5ho winter grow. Everything it coming along nicely and im going to start a gentle organic fertilizer. I will be fertilizing a small amount with every watering from now on. 1 part urea 1 part potash 2 parts bone meal. Adding a teaspoon of that mixture per gallon of...
Two 4 ft 8 bulb T5ho lights and a rack$600 should be able to grow 8 plants to fruit and cost $290 a year for hydro on a 16 hr light cycle. That's what I have on the go for my budget. I plan on getting 16 plants all cropped and ready for outside next spring for a huge head start the bringing my...
Two days and no more death. Thanks for the replies. ... watering from the bottom from now on and fans a blowing. Thanks for the replies I do in joy learning new things and right now it's peppers. (Secretly im scared I'll succeed and have to eat a super hot which I've never tried before and cry...
I want to water these cause there weight is telling me there dry but the seedlings aren't showing sings of needing water.
From what I can tell.
This guy true leaves are kinda crinkled.
this one's leaves are a little yellow.
Yes thanks that's what I don't want to see thanks. So try to get them...
here a pic close up with the soil pulled back from the stem. This is not showing any sings of damping off to me. The soil is pro mix coco peat vermiculite. I can see the brown ting on top of the soil like you were pointing out that could be the fungus. I thought it was just the vermiculite...
This is a White Bhut Jolkia which since reading on this site might not turn out to produce a white pod? There was a thread that was debating if this seed from Tradewind Fruits was viable? Did anyone ever grow this to produce pods and post any pictures? Im curious to know cause it was one of the...
Ok so when everything is going 100% according to plan and you go camping for 2 days and come back and one of your Big sun Habs is lying down and you realize that the skinny stem is damping off do you panic? Nope your fan is running and everyone's soil is dry for the first inch and the lights are...
No there not all tricot. ...just the one plant. Everything is growing well most everything has at lest 2 true leaves and i started germinating august 20th. All seed came from Tradewind fruits and everything has germinated except the Butch-t seeds and the Aji dulce 2 . But there still in the...
Yeah this is a midget verity and I hope to train it to climb the sides and I'll hammock the melons. Had to try for the boy.
This is a Malaysian Goronong I like the tricotyledon.
I germinated 55 out of 68 seeds so far since August 20th and there still coming up. Trinadads and 7 pots and ghosts and black nagas. ...so the jiffys work but you need to watch the moisture of each pod.
When you put the lid on that jiffy you will notice that the condensation will roll down the sides and transfer the moisture from the inside pods to the ones.around the perimeter. So if your not vigilant the seeds on the outside will be too wet and the center ones will dry out!
this is how I...
