Hi guys, long time no glog for me. Here's a little update, with pics.   Plants are growing nicely, all bigger plants have buds now. I started making AACT last week, hope it shows soon :)   Bhut Jolokia Indian Carbon in plastic pot. Had problems with lice, I took care of it, but had to cut few...

Only one they after potting up Manazano has ''forked'', and with two new buds :) I also made a kitchen veggies pot for my wife, not sure if it will big enough for all the plants (basils, spinach, dill, mustard, brussel sprouts..), I will pot up some of the veggies when needed I wish nice and...

Thanks Rick. I was up potting some of the plants today, and I was curious about my DIY air pots, so up potted Wiri Wiri Ma and Orange Manzano to bigger air pots, just to see root system :D Since you guys say Manzanos can get really big, it will be good to have extra litres of soil :) Wiri Wiri...

Looks like home made air pot is doing good, Manzano is growing fast, already the biggest plant in my yard (was a bit smaller then the others at the time - there's picture up there from 16 days a go to compare). Wiri Wiri Ma is in the other geotex bag: And since we are having a real tropical...

Great read guys :D I bought air pump, tubings and airstones yesterday, gonna make some compost tea. I have at my disposal compost, fresh forrest humus, fresh grass clippings and mykos, and I think I can get my hands on some liquid molasses. What i was wondering - do you guys add some specific...

It sucks about the snow, hope it clears out tomorrow :) Glad your peppers are safe :)

Thanks Igor :) Hope you will share your growth with us. (Tek kad dodju plodovi mogu reci da je dobra sezona :D)

Awesome glog Gary! Very neath set up. Looking forward to see how does Madame Jeanette will do, it seems like an interesting variety to grow.

I went to my parents ranch to plant some more tomatoes and to check how the peppers are doing. I noticed a strange thing - there's a 3-4 inch sized Bhut Jolokia Indian Carbon with bud forming on top :D Hope it doesn't stay that size :D There are few more peppers of that size with buds formed...

Hey Rick, it's great to see you patrolling again. Looking forward to see pics of those monster plants :)

Hard working Labor Day is behind me. It was indeed Dirt Day no.2. Didn't have time to take pics, it was all about work efficiency :) To sum up: 95 chilli peppers planted in the ground (51 today) 63 tomatos in the ground + 18 sweet peppers + 9 tomatillos They are all at my parents ranch and it...

WOW Rick, great results. That Aji Criolla in 1 gallon air pot... amazing :) I was thinking about 3 gallon air pots as final destination for potted plants, you're doing wonders with far less :D

Thanks Rick :) Actually, I kept all of them, two of them just didn't made it in the pic :D I don't like killing peppers off, I will rather give them away instead. I should germinate all my peppers like this, it could save a lot of space :D I'm looking forward to Manzanos and Rocotos, I've...

Thanks Rick, hope it goes that way :) Orange Manzano is enjoying geotex bag, didn't water from planting - a week ago and it still has a lot of moist in soil, despite summer temps that we are having here every day (75-80 F). I noticed a strange cup today among peppers - 6 Douglah peppers that...

Since there's not much going on with the plants, I can sum up my germination numbers Jalapeno M 7/10 Jalapeno Purple 6/10 Red Hot Paper Lantern Habanero 9/10 Mustard Habanero 5/5 Aji Yellow 4/5 Serrano 0/5 Vesena 1/5 Ring of Fire 1/5 Piquin 0/5 Big Jim Anaheim 6/10 Chile De Arbol 3/10...

Thanks for asking Rick. I've planted bigger and older peppers and tomatoes, but a lot of them is still in cups, with only few pairs of true leaves, they didn't grow much until last two weeks, so I gave them more time. There's a lot of varieties here, some of the super hots are still small...

Nice to see you're ready to plant out Rick! Considering the size of your growth, you'll be having ripe pods in no time. Weather over here is already summer like night temps are over 50F, day max around 77 for next to weeks. Hope you get most of the sun :)

Hey Rick. Having pods on chinensis indoor in April, it's just pure awesomeness :) Plants still look very healthy and vibrant. You'll do wonders when you finally get your plants outdoor, hope it will be soon for you.

Thanks Rick, I think it will last through the season, it looks firm and compact. I also wanted it sewed on my wife's sewing machine but it doesn't work ATM. I just made a prototype, hope we get machine in order till air pot production time (probably in a month) :)

Thanks for stoping by Rick, hope your weather gets better soon. Since my online order of textile bag pots for air pruning didn't came, I decided to make my own :) Did some research and found that geotextile is the material used so I went to a local garden & home shop and bought some geotex...
