Well things are not looking good for my winter peppers. I neglected to feed them for about 3-4 weeks. This could be the problem but not sure. Last week I feed them but does not look like they are getting better. I don't see any signs of mildew. What do you think? They have had adequate water...

Well that's interesting. What is the medical condition called? Maybe you are allergic to the pollen. Are the peppers setting flowers? Well if you eat 1 hab a day you would no doubt be producing plenty of mucus. Since I've been eating Habs, my allergies have gone way down. I need to sleep with...

Plant/aquarium flourescents are good and will work fine. Using cool white would give you the same results but less expensive. If you see the peppers need more light, just add some more and try to find some cool white to save a few $$. If you don't care about spending a few extra $$ you can use...

Coco coir is great. Bug and disease free and no mold problem. About 20$ for 50 liter bag not cheap. http://www.discountgarden.com/index.php?page=mod_products&cid=21&sid=149&view=true&id=6598

Hey bent, It would be great to have a picture of the hybrid and of the parents also. These would be great for my indoor garden. Sounds very interesting I'll send you a PM later. :onfire:

Mine tasted great. In fact I think I prefer the Naga to regular habs. It's got a mix of habanero and frutescent taste to them. Then the burn hits you :) Of course I think my pretty purple taste like raspberry and the Orange Habs that I had in Mexico had a cocoa aroma. I may try to cross them...

White bullet fix. Sick white bullet. He looks weird because I had chop it down a few weeks ago. Under the HPS this sucker was over 4ft tall! Under blue light, growth has not been a problem. I had at least 100 tiny flower buds. closeup sick white bullet. Not much sick leaves showing because I...

It's never been outside but I always leave the window open. I did try to root some pear cuttings. I also brought a jalapeno and lavender plant that were grown outside but they show no signs of infection. I don't want to use any pesticide/fungicide. White hab is going to the trash can tonight...

I just water them from the bottom. The leaves have never been wet. Gulp... I'm just about to throw it away.... :(

My white bullet is showing some leaves with black spots. It started about 2 days ago and now 1-3 leaves per day are showing these spots ;( The white bullet is inside in my grow room and I don't want it to contaminate the other plants. Should I put it in the trash or just keep removing the the...

Photons hmm interesting..... mol = 6.022×10E23 micro-mole = UMol = 6.022×10E17 Watt = 1 J/s Plant energy requirement : 400 UMol m-2 s-1 based on 16 hour day of light Let's calculate how many photons per day for 1 sq ft : Day = 16 hours * 60 min *60 s = 57 600 s 400 * 6.022×10E17 / 10.89 ft...

Very good find Wordwiz. A fluorescent is approx. the same quality light then an MH. So let's use the the numbers for the MH and we should get the value for the Fluo. Let's crunch some numbers.... 1 meter = 3.3 ft 1 sq meter = 10.89 ft 400 watts MH = 140 Par Watts ----------------------...

The 30 watts/sq ft is just an approximation used for fluorescent lighting. You are reducing light to lumens/watts. Not good. Watts is not perfect but better then lumens to approximate the light requirement. If you are convinced that lumens is a good measurement, then explain how a 50 000...

30 watts/sq foot is correct.:P Lumens are not a good way to evaluate the light needs of plants. Lumens is a measure used to quantify the sensitivity of the human eye to different wavelengths of light. The human eye is more sensitive to yellow and greens light.But plants use mainly blue an red...

Fluorescent lights are more efficient then incandescent light. So for the same amount of energy you get more light with fluorescent. For growing plants incandescent are useless they put out too much red and infra red light. A general rule is 30 watts/sq foot for high light level plants (peppers...

Yup CFL = compact fluorescent light. HPS = High Pressure Sodium lamps used in commercial green house. The reason why the CFL appear to be less hot is because of the greather surface area that dissipates the heat. A regular light buld has a small surface area so the surface is very hot. But a 40...

advice : sure Derision : hmm got to look up wiki for that :?: Suggestions : If you are going to use lights for heating might has well use CFL. They provide the same heat but will give beneficial light to the plants. 100 watt incandescent produce the same heat has 100 watts of CFL (almost a...

Wow it really grew well. How does it compare to a normal grow? more pods? smaller plant? less bugs? Sure is cool. nice job.

Not much of a mystery. Orange Habs, Naga, Jalepeno and white bullet and a market bell pepper. The seeds for the white bullet came with the official blah blah trade mark and all but another plant started from seeds produced only yellow peppers a little big bigger then the white bullet .... the...

My white bullet are tiny! Taste good and good heat but tiny!!!!
