Update: Well, most are doing good, but I have one tray that is very troubled...see pic below. First, one of the good trays. This one is going good...:) This one not so good...and its the entire tray of 12 plants....:(

chillilover How are your plants doing? Recovering from this curl, I hope.

Here is a picture of one of the purple leaves, taken this afternoon.

Thanks A.J., and yep, I am running the 3 6500k and the 3 3000k per shelf. There are spread over a 20" wide area. I will post a pic to this thread tonight so you can see the purple on the leaves and see if it looks like what you have experienced. Shane

Thanks for the reassuranve hotenuff4u. Shane

Ok, so I did a search on the forum, and found that purple leaves are caused by too much light. Also, seems that it could be caused by Phosphate Deficiency. I will add, the leaf itself is turning purple, not necessarily the vein. These plants are about 15 days old, and not all of them are...

Thanks Ajayren. From what I can see, it doesnt hurt plants at all. Thanks for the ID!

Caught this little insect crawling around on one of my plants today. I didnt see any physical damage to the plant, but I am wondering if its a friend or foe. This little fellow is about half the size of a lady bug, maybe even smaller than that.

Very good....congrats! Nice looking plants.

Ok, thanks for the advice Jacob! Here is a picture of my Jolokia, started from seed by a friend at work. He said the plant is 5 weeks old, I put it under the lights with the rest of my "crop".

Great, thanks guys. I was hoping that would be the consensus, and I will definitely keep an eye on it.

I found this spot today on a couple of my plants. Its on the original leaves that came out when the plants first sprouted. I have not noticed this until today on any, and so far I see it on a couple of my biker Billy's. Is there a need for concern? If this is a problem just starting, maybe with...

Another update with photo's: The babies are doing good. Growing quite nicely, and personally I am thinking everything I have potted up thus far will be ready by plant time, a couple weeks from now. I am considering starting the hardening off process next Saturday, that will be another week, and...

I have about 10 acres, with about 3 acres of it field and yard, the rest is wooded...and I am planning to put a fence around my garden area to keep out the dogs, etc. Also am in process of putting up a small greenhouse, more of a large cold frame really.....its the king canopy 10 x 10...

Hey patrick. I didn't attempt to separate the seedlings, I just clipped the extra...mainly because I am really pushing space limitations inside with what I had planned....but I will be able to light and grow around 225 plants. As for pot or in ground growing, previously I have done pots with my...

Another quick update: Plants growing really nice now...see attached pictures. Day 10 of life for these Biker Billy plants (also pictured above in pot-up picture): Day 9 of life for these Quadrato D'Asti Rosso:

Hey Maligator! I faced the same issue, well, am still facing it as I still have seeds in the germination bin..lol. Anyway, the one thing you might consider is space and time...you have planned for 1 plant per pod, but have 3 times or even 4 times that in each pod...if you save them all, will...

Added a few more varieties to my grow list above...that's it for me, no more seed planting.....:D Til next year that is.

I agree Maligator, I learn tons as well...good resource for sure.

Update Time: I did the first pot-up today. All total, I have 216 seeds/plants in pellets.....some have germinated, some have not. Today, I started potting up the plants that have true leaves forming. I decided to go with the 9 oz cups, with a 5/8" hole drilled in the bottom for drainage. I...
