Sad news - the indoor grow is now officially outside. My big plants are outdoor plants simply due to the space-prohibitive nature of full-grown pepper plants indoors, and I still want to garden and need a place to nurse my horde of smaller plants to maturity. This is all that remains of the...

I'm jelly I couldn't participate this time around - darn tough plant to germinate.

Finally, I got to visit the plot - the water damage is apparent.       Meanwhile, the tomatoes are having issues. Any ideas?      

Well guys, after much though I have decided to abandon the indoor pepper grow and instead use this space and the lights as a plant nursery instead of a place to grow peppers. I will keep the plants in their bags outside, but I am going to begin hardening them off to the weather and eventually...

It's been raining cats and dogs here so I haven't been to the plot very much lately, but here is the indoor garden! On the floor are the plants that are going to be my outdoor ones, but of course I can't take them outside with all this damn rain...  

Banned-aid.

Here are my hospital patients - six survivors. I kept one of the SB7Js and the smaller Peach Bhut here. I'll plant them here at my home garden.     And here is the indoor garden...           Been harvesting quite a few from this one for a while:  

Limed the garden in all the right places, which seems to have diminished leaf curl on all but the most serious ones afflicted (looking at you, Satan's Kiss). I got new blood in the garden, freshly hardened off to the outdoors - the main characteristic always being the enormous leaves compared to...

Time for an update!   Take a look at the pepper garden guys, but this time I need some diagnostics:         I got mine from one of our folks here, GIP. I think he got them from Pepper Lover, can't remember - he showed me pictures of them last grow season and they were very productive.   I also...

  GIP informed me this is just the way this particular bunch of White Fataliis looked, so I'll take him at his word. Apparently they are pretty productive.   We've been moving pretty much all of last week and finally moved all the heavy stuff on the weekend. Plants did not like the move nor...

  I have this community to thank for the mountain of seeds I've received. Without them, I'd just be growing 5 different pepper varieties.

It certainly is torture. I've already harvested at least a dozen peppers from my plot outdoors, but those were fresnos, cayennes, and some mystery stuff. This just hurts me.

For those of you who missed my topic asking why it's taking so long to ripen some peppers...     Peach Bhut and MOA Scotch Bonnet:     Tepin x Lemon Drop       Caribbean Red:    

Hey there cool cats and dogs.   I've had pepper pods on my indoor Tepin x Lemon Drop for at least a month now, but I haven't seen any ripening yet. Check it out:         Here is what I've got on specifics:   Lights run on a 8am - 10pm schedule, output is 300W LED lights (though realistically...

And at the garden:  

Now to get back to the things you truly love - your peppers of course. ;)

Got my Papa Dreadie seeds planted :) Hope they take and make it!

Meanwhile at home...  

Wee woo wee woo pepper hospital, accepting patients! Raised bed garden with great drainage to help these poor overwatered saps recover.     Meanwhile at the resort, the rest of the peppers are doing just fine.  

My only Peruvian Serlano bit the dust - was stunted, wilted, and died. Looks like I am out this time around. :(
