Hi Megamoo! OK, the reading was before i added anything to the soil...so it sounds about right if it's meant to be around 6 - 6.8....excellent! Stickman...i will have to look into the lab thing. I don't really know where to start though, but i'll ask around! I'm not putting all of my plants in...

Hi everyone! OK, i have prepped more of the border around the front of the house today. I went down to the local Bunnings and got 3 bags of organic compost and also 3 bags of sheep manure and worked it into the soil. These were 25l bags.....so does this sound enough for that area, or do you...

Hi rhm! Looking good so far mate! I spotted your post (with pics) regarding the yellowing / browning leaves... No idea of the cause I'm afraid, but if it helps you, a load of my plants have done the same...but when this happens I just pull the leaves off, and then they are not there to bother me...

Love the video updates Sanarda!! Keep up the good work :)

I've had some take 90 days or so......as has Mezo who started around the same time as i did. I nearly gave up on them, but it wasn't any trouble to keep them in there, so i just kept on with them.

Fanman, can you expand on the 'aged' manure? Not sure what aged manure is, and how to tell! Also, i can see myself prepping the rest of that bordered area tomorrow too... I might get that bush attached to a vehicle and rip the bugger out and replace it with hot plants. May as well, eh?....

Im pretty sure new soil and leaving them alone will work out for you just fine :) I've found that now that i've got more established over-wintered plants to care for, my seedlings do so much better...due to the fact that i leave them alone a lot more! In the beginning, when i just had...

Yep, it's been up 'n' down here for the past couple of weeks too...luckily i have all mine on castors, as in the last few days we've had 2 degrees / 4 degrees...i just wheeled them into the carport when i see anything below 7, just to be safe. Can't wait until the night-time temps are in the...

Thanks everyone....that's exactly the type of info I was after! I'm going to pick up a soil ph kit tomorrow and see what's what, and go from there.

OK, whilst mowing the front lawn this afternoon, i had a silly thought about the possibility of getting a few plants in soil as well as pots. Initially i was going 100% pots only, but this hot pepper thing has really bitten hard here...lol Across the front of the house theres a section that had...

Wow, insane pic mate!

On a random note....what's the username mean!? qazwersfdxcv!!?? lol

Hi Bernard!! I reckon they'll be fine mate... It might be worth repotting the damaged ones into slightly bigger pots, as about a month ago i put a few of my smaller plants outside and with the first small gust of wind they were over on their sides, as the weight of the pot just wasn't enough to...

Hmmm, the original post says they are under lights for around 20 hours a day, so I don't think it's light (from my limited experience anyway)

lol...you sound like me about 7 months ago.... What's the thinking behind buying / using some H202? I used H202 to get rid of fungus gnats, but that was when the seedlings were 3 or 4 months old. For a while, just give them plain ol' water i reckon....and 'sparingly' ;) Best of luck

oi oi Benji! Greetings from VIC :)

Thats great news, as that's currently the position i have my plants in, and as they seem to be doing well there i was reluctant to move them.

Classic! Thousands of pepper-heads on here posting sooo many articles / pictures / advice...but it took Mezo's ripped marqee to finally lure you in!! lol Welcome to the forum mate! :welcome:

Sorry, i meant that Bernard (el hombre chilli) posted right after i updated my glog on the last page....thus starting a new page....so people may not have seen my last update which i posted about 30 seconds before this new page started! You didn't miss much though...just a few pods the size of...

ooops! ps, there were a few updated pics at the end of the last page if you didn't see them....as Bernard must have posted about 30 seconds after i updated it and began a new page :) Cheers all
