    Noob transplant question...

    Root bound isn't a bad thing, just cut the bound roots prior to transplant. My plant's get about 3x that size in red plastic solo cupsbefore starting to become root bound, once you pot up they tend to explode in size and if space and lighting is a concern then just keep them in small pots and...

    seeds Keeping an Electric Fan on Seedlings?

    I've always run the fan, it's a bit tough when they are still in jiffy pellets because they dry out faster but I just keep adding a bit of water. Fresh air and a little mimicking of mother nature never hurts.

    CFLs...T8s...Best choice?

    Why not go to t5 ho? CFLs and T8/12's are junk in comparison for veg stage to get an early start on the season. If you want to flower and fruit go HPS,

    Heat mat thermostat

    I use a hydrofarm thermostat and heat mat. For me they work well since the ambient temps in my house fluctuate day/night and when the lights come on in my grow closet temps spike and the thermostat keeps everything perfectly balanced between 85-90. Since using it my germination rates have...

    vendor Pepper Joe

    So is there any chance if I wait long enough, let's say I bring the habs that turn into ghosts in the fall inside for the winter, they will evolve eventually into Carolina Reapers, then maybe something new? Are peppers pokemon?

    50 ghosts extract

    I'll see if one of my buddies in Alberta can ship it to me. I was thinking I could try BioFlame Ethanol, but they throw some additives in it to make it undrinkable, now if I can find out what they through in there it may be worth a shot.

    50 ghosts extract

    I have been searching all over for the equivalent of Everclear in Canada. Our government doesn't like high proof booze. Any suggestions on how I can make my own extract here? Does anybody know of a way to get Everclear in Canada?

    Planting directly into the yard (no tilling)??

    To favor those who prefer not to till, try a broadfork. It helps break up the soil to help roots penetrate harder ground, without all the damage of tilling.

    Toronto 2013 Results/2014 Grow

    Just noticed I had some peppers growing already, this guy was tucked in the back, must have started just after the last watering a few days ago.   Also noticed about 10 aphids on one of my peppers, I crushed them and inspected all my other peppers and didn't find any more. I have had such bad...

    The fatali is pretty hot 125,000–400,000 bu it has a great flavour, the santa fe grande is a little hotter than a jalapeno with a great taste also, and they are great for stuffing.   Also the bishops crown is a good one to grow.    What are you intending to make with your peppers? Do you like to...

    seeds Note to new members...0 posts=0 seeds.

    I just signed up and I was hoping somebody send me some free seeds. I want to grow all of the hottest peppers. I don't really have an interest in peppers all that much, and I don't really know what half these names mean because I just saw them online and they were catchy.   I am looking for:  ...

    Planting directly into the yard (no tilling)??

    I'm no scientist but before there were chemical fertilizers farmers were tilling. plants will grow well in soil that hasn't been tilled but the benefit is to drive fresh nutrients down deeper where the roots of the plants your trying to grow can benefit from them. I till to speed up weeding of...
