My first plant has forked and is producing buds. Pink Tiger x Peach Bhut Sent from my M2004J19C using Tapatalk

Thanks Paul. I've had to scale back the grown considerably. Mixing, ECing, pHing and then feeding 30 odd plants a day was taking easily 2 hours each day when accounting for different nutrient solution strength for different plants. The only way I could see this method being viable would be...

Got Coco, perlite, worm castings, neem granules and humate for my DIY potting mix. Just need some rock dust and osmocote. I wanted to use biochar but covid must've interrupted the supply chain for the company I was going to buy it from. Sent from my M2004J19C using Tapatalk

Is UV necessary for pepper starts? Sent from my M2004J19C using Tapatalk

My biggest discovery is having containers elevated. Even though Coco drains incredibly quickly, there will always be runoff that drains out over a few hours after watering. I have elevated my plants using PVC pipes cut into small pieces. I had to use a hand saw and it was a pain in the butt but...

When my plants are moved outdoors I'll be transplanting them into fabric grow bags in potting mix. I'll be using store bought potting mix for some plants and DIY potting mix for others. I'll be using 15 gallon grow bags mainly. 3 plants will be grown in pure coco. Many plants are going to be...

After killing all my superhots last year before they even had pods, I'm so happy with how my plants are looking. This will be my first real pepper season. I'm still learning every day. I saw other growers with plants that looked like this but I never thought mine would look like this. Never...

I've used blisters technique of sieving the coco. Coarse coco on the left, fine coco pith on the right. Once you remove the fine pith, the media drains nearly instantly and the roots grow fast. The coarse coco dries out faster which means you can feed it more often. In my experience, this...

For lighting I'm using chinense clones of quantum boards. I've never seen growth as fast as I'm having with these lights. They're unbelievably bright, a photo can't show how bright they are. They have Meanwell drivers and are dimmable. I also have 3 cheap hygrometers. It's a bit cold...

I start all seeds using the paper towel method then sow them into a single cup with a ziplock bag over the top. I use pure coco for this. After a few days they will sprout. Then I transplant them into mini solo cups. Then I will pick the healthiest and transplant those. Sent from my...

Some catnip plants lived short lives. Sent from my M2004J19C using Tapatalk

I have transplanted all my plants into plastic tubes with a layer of hydroton at the bottom. they drain in about 5 seconds then can go straight back into the tent. My past failures with Coco have been because of pH lockout, salt built up, overwatering and underwatering all caused by lack of...

After a big failure last year (I killed my plants with excess neem oil), I have started a new grow. I'm growing in pure Coco coir (a few plants have some perlite mixed in because I ran out of coco). A lot of tips and tricks came from blisters grow logs. I've finally found a setup that works...

Looks like they're back!

Dyna-gro at the moment.

They have now refunded my orders. Hopefully they pull through whatever family issues they're going through <3

Thanks. I'll feed them without checking the pH and see how that goes.

I didn't get a paypal refund yet :O but have emailed pepperlover.

Do you pH the CNS17 grow before giving it to plants in potting mix? I'm still not sure if I need to be pH'ing nutrients that are being fed to plants in potting mix.

Hey NorthEast_ChileMan. I just started using dynagro foliage pro at every feeding for my peppers in potting mix (with added perlite). Do you use potting mix and if so, do you pH the nutrients before feeding your plants?   It's hard to tell if it would be necessary because they claim it has a pH...
