Wow...what a turnaround! Looking goog Mez. Well done!

I've got exactly the same thing going on here too, and its giving me a bit of a headache, as when they are a bit yellow I am presuming its too much water, so I cut back on the water, but then they wilt...but still have yellow leaves obviously...which is then a pain as you don't know if you're...

oioi Trippa!! Yeah, the 2nd Fish Pepper is deffo an oddity alright! The first plant set very ordinary pods...but this one from the same batch of seeds decides to set tri-pods and quad-pods! Time will tell on these!

Hi Mezo.. Yeah, i reckon if i caught it at the time it happened it might have worked...but by the time i got home from work and found it, the broken limb was really limp...it may have made it i guess, but i didn't think to do that. If it happens again i'll give it a shot :) Damn, yeah....its...

Yeah, i gotta agree with BIG kev above... the advice here has been amazing! This was / is my first year of growing anything too, so i know where you're coming from!! Previous to this, i had never kept anything alive for more than a few weeks, well, except for our kids...but they are very vocal...

Quick Q for you Aussie blabberers! Whilst i realise that the season has only just started here, at what point is there little point with new seedlings? (ie when you know that you're going to hit winter before you see fruit) Whats the latest you guys bother trying to start something new off?

I wish this bloody wind would piss off.... Just got back from work to find my most mature 7 pot had blown over onto the most mature Jolokia Assam. The 7 pot just lost 1 branch thankfully, so I'm hoping it'll survive, but the Assam broke just above the 2 nd from bottom set of leaves, so it's...

Well, today i had a day off mid-week, which was nice!! I went out to check the plants and found a load of aphids on my Pimenta De Neyde, which i suddenly remembered had spent a lot of time sat next to the Bunnings-bought capsicum plant that brought the aphids here...so i blitzed them with a...

'Ave it ferozaj! Get shot of the bugger...

Hey Bernard....great to see your plants doing great things!! Loving the progress!!! Also, i meant to ask last time we saw you........what colour Habs are those that you have growing? Are they orange ones like mine or something else? Oh, and when i ordered the Fish Eye seeds for ya from Brazil...

Yep!! Although I do admit that i always wonder what the other half of Pauls face looks like.. lol :party: ;)

Weirdly enough, i checked that plant out again this evening, and it looks like the only other pod forming on it is also a quad! I'll take some pics tomorrow Hey Doc! Me and a couple of mates went to the USA on a bit of a bmx road trip back in 1999...and we were stoked to be able to see Eddie...

Hi Mezo.. Yep, whacked loads of sand around them all... I think i've found the source... I just got back from work armed with spray and stuff....had a quick look at the plants in the back porch, and there's a Capsicum plant that i bought from Bunnings that's littered with them. So it might be...

Gah! I checked on my 5-6 week old newbies in the back porch this morning, and one of my bishops crowns was looking weird. It wasn't looking over or underwatered, but was sort of slumping over on an angle. Then I spotted it....a bloody aphid :( There was only 1 that I could see, but it was...

Well, i could last no longer and decided to pick the little hab pod! We were having pasta bake, and i thought it might be a nice addition over it, although a small one! Whilst chopping it up...the SMELL....YES! The last time i had this smell in our kitchen was back in February, after JR let me...

Many thanks Paul! And good luck with your movable structure!! Make sure to post pics :) Haha!!! Yes...luckily they are just down the road Doc!! Imagine turning up to the Post Office with that...... :) Well, the winds have been horrid most of today. We went out today, and on returning i...

lol....ok!!! Thanks guys!

Hmmm, not so good... Just spotted some weird looking leaves appearing on a couple of my Bhuts.. I'm sure i've seen this type of growth on one of the Aussie users plants..but i can't currently find the thread. So can anyone advise me whats going on here, and the possible remedy? I have looked...

It's a pain here, as we don't get any roadside collection here in Lara :( Back in the UK we could dump pretty much anything and everything for free...hence we were shocked that over here we have to pay nearly $40 for a trailer load :surprised: And $25 to dump a mattress!!? No wonder i see so...

I've had a few of mine go this way too... but nowadays i bury my new seedlings a lot deeper, so that the potting mix is almost up to the first set of leaves, and i haven't had it happen since..which is the same as Mitch has said really.
