About how old is that plant your holding in the previous post?

  Yeah, I do Kratky for peppers I'm pretty sure so long as you keep up with feeding your plants they will do just fine. All of my peppers are doing just fine this way, even some of my OW peppers are shooting out new growth every day. Khang Starr on YouTube has a lot of pepper videos and I'm...

    +1 to this, both are the reason I am getting more into growing and I use the kratky for everything but my tomato at the moment

So you say this is just for starting plants, but how long are we talking here? You've got 60(?) day old plants there that have really good growth on them. Bigger than the plants I currently have in my sunroom that I also supplement with about 5 hours of LED strips once the sun goes down. Those...

Can we get the diminsions of your tent and the light you're using?? You say you're testing to see if this will be effective enough to set fruit indoors and I am interested in doing this as well!   Thanks will be following this progress

    One of the links was a bit messed up so maybe this comment is without purpose, but I noticed the bulbs that you linked (that I could see) were 2700k lumens and 1700k lumens (I believe). The first [broken] link might've been to another bulb but I was under the impression that 6500k was the...

Could we perhaps get an image of some of your grow boxes you're setting up?   I see you plan on using CFL bulbs, just curious if another step you could do is link to maybe the Home Depot website to show what you're using specifically. Interested as well in hearing why you're going with CFLs...

Those lightening pods are some seriously interesting peppers!

Got home from work today, to find the second chocolate hab showing signs of underwatering! This one has much longer more developed roots and was just under half of the roots were underwater. So, not sure if that's too little or not. I filled the water bucket back to full with plain water no...

Moved my red bhut over to the bucket, because clearly my chocolate hab wasn't developed enough root system wise. Hoping this will awaken it and send it into grow mode like these jalepeno plants that are exploding. Will move my other pepper into a bucket once it's roots grow a little more

I would have to bring plants indoors in late August-late march probably but the rest of the year outside

After a few hours in a water bath the leaves have almost fully recovered!! I just got too ambitious and didn't fill up the water bucket enough lol. Will check again in the morning

And just got home to find a wilted pepper. I got too eager with my kratky method and put this plant in before the roots were long enough to reach the water, obviously.. let's see if it'll bounce back from this.. I hope Pictures from last night, last post on previous page

  Nice!   This looks like what I need for starting my plants out in winter to get a head start on the growing season.   Do you think your light can grow to full maturity or is this just for awhile? Could you link the light youre running as well?   Looking forward to seeing your progress!  ...

A little bit of progress made since my previous posts, tomato seems to have doubled in size and leaves are back to being very green. It's loving the sunroom.   Also my peppers are growing quite nicely, I need to inspect them for their Y joint or whatever as well as doing some research on...

  I'd love to see a Glog on this, like from seed to fruit to OW   Ideally, I want to grow all my plants year round - maybe a few can be killed off but numerous growing seasons per plant is definitely a goal of mine

Sorry! Should've been more specific.   I was asking about the process of smoking peppers and how you either turn them into flakes or cooking powders? Currently I season a lot of my cooking with my home made hot sauce but I feel like the spice would go a lot further if I could just add a little...

Curious if anyone has ever used the apple cider vinegar/dish soap mixture to get rid of gnats?   I am growing two OW Jalepenos Kratky style, but I have the very upmost root ball contained in a cup with soil and the roots hang down through a hole. The gnats have found safe haven in the soil cups...
