Welcome from Iowa :onfire: Start a glog so we can see what you are growing and watch your progression into pepper hell :D

Cayenne, I am not terribly worried about ph up and ph down, but my tap water is pretty good from the start. I am not sure what my ppm is and dont really care, the plant is thriving, so it is happy, updated pictures will be put up later today, but I warn you all, this thing has gone freakishly...

Welcome from Iowa and also to our little corner of the world!!! You have stumbled upon THE BEST website/forum for peppers, lots of informative and friendly folks here. You are definately in a very good region to grow lots of super hots, as long as you keep an eye on them. I lived in the Phoenix...

Looks like a mouse turd to me! LOL

It does look like to me to be water spot damage. It is simply the same as what would happen to your skin if you focused the sun on your hand through a magnifying glass. The water droplets (could be morning dew) act as the magnifying glass and fry holes in the plants' leaves. It does look like...

I tried it at the recommended dosage and really didnt see any difference. Its a waste of money and time IMO. Buy some Alaskan Fish Fertilizer instead.

And you dont need to dry the seeds before you plant them, just plop them in some dirt, about 1/4" below the soil and let them go...

Super Hots grow fine in Iowa, I am now in my 3rd season of them. Pots are great to grow in cause you can easily move them if mother nature decides we need a cold night, which she is known to do.

Weekly Update Ok so it has been another week with the water level dropped down and this thing is going nuts. I have all kinds of flowers coming on and it has grown almost 3" in height!!! The thermometer has not been moved lower, thats how much she has grown in a week. All these roots out the...

I may be right or I may be wrong. I have been adding 1 shot glass (1.5 ounces) of h2o2 to my hydro bucket for 2 weeks now and havent seen any bad effects. My root growth has exploded, although I cannot say it it is directly from the addition of the h2o2 or from the fact that I lowered my water...

You need to seek professional help for your addiction bro. LOL

Thanks, it has been a love/hate relationship with this plant. I love it, it hates growing for me. LOL Other than hitting it with nuclear radiation, I dont know what else to do to it. It seems that everyone else that does hydro has super fast growth, mine just kinda go at a turtle pace for some...

2 Week update. I took the lower leaves off below the split, they never seem to be productive anyways to me. I also decreased the water level to add an air buffer zone in the bucket. There is alot of new growth in the root system, it is finally catching up again and I trimmed some of the older...

I have them growing and they were hard to germinate. The plants look promising though. Will let ya know in a couple months if they were worth the time or not.

Its amazing how well they are growing without a bubble stone in there. What brand nutrients are you using and how strong are you mixing the solution?

Thanks, I will look into that product.

Thanks Alpha, I cleaned the bucket again this morning and added 2 gallons of fresh water and 1/2 the required nutes for the volume (1/2 strength). Gonna leave the light on for a couple hours then let it go back into it's normal cycle. Luckily all the leaves I lost were below the main split, so...

What you need for seeds? I can probably hook you up.

So I am afraid I over dosed my Brain Strain Yellow in the hydroponic bucket. I did some reading on "illegal" plant sites and seems like they all have some sort of advice for people that have done it too, "flushing" the plant. Basically they say to empty the bucket and rinse it out, refill with...
