no problem, and from what I have been reading, and the few mistakes I made with over fertilizing, is that you are better off diluting it by about 1/4 the recommended strength.. mainly when they are so small, I use more slow release ferts so I use the recommended dose on the bag since they really...

yeah, at this point with the light being closer I would definitely suggest switching to 18/6, I notice that when they get a good dose of light (and just watch your leaves, if they turn really purple and look bad, like they are slowing going to white and dying, then back the light off. .but not...

I got this one, and it actually works pretty well.. it fluctuates sometimes by .5 but that is just dependent on where I stick it in the soil.. and where I just happen to spread the nutes and stuff.. but as long as you just watered the soil, and twist it around a little, and wait like 30sec. .it...

a few days to a week maybe? it depends on how deep you plant it I guess..

Blood meal for "N' and I would say Bone meal for the potassium, but that takes a little while to break down, but it would be good, I'm pretty sure there is no potash in there, since I had to get another bag of ferts of just potash..

well just finished reading everything.. and I'm going along the same lines as everyone else.. except I am really just trying to cross anything and everything that might work and have something cool come out of it.. and I will be making a lot of them crossed with Bulgarian Carrots, which for...

yeah I was thinking about something along these lines too, but wasn't sure what you were using as a potting mix.. but I would go ahead and re-pot them, don't really need much, and if you want you could just throw some MG potting soil or something in there at like 20-30% of your mixture or...

yeah that's plenty of light, should be about 2-3' above them or so.. but as far as the stems I haven't seen this myself, except for maybe one plant that is kind of stunted, but it's doing great now.. I'd say get a oscillating fan on them for a few hours a day (or like 15min each hour...

I tried doing that with the tweezers and stuff.. and I ended up pulling off the leaves twice.. even though I thought I was very very careful, I even wet the heck out of the seed before trying it.. but I have noticed that a few of the seedlings that came up recently were like that, when the last...

hey, about that "Sweet" stuff you got from the guy, I'd say keep it and try it out on a few plants.. and peppers are technically a fruit.. but I would wait till they get bigger and are pretty hardy, but Capsicum was saying in another thread - "I have used botanicare sweet with great results...

I have some Pretty Purple Peppers growing now, they have purpleish/green leaves, it's a pretty cool looking plant, but the pods are growing on them now, they start out I think as purple, then yellow maybe then red, I forget, they are on Tomatogrowers.com but I will let you know how they taste...

if it's only been 11 days, but you have 9 seedlings up.. I'd say your still doing good, the plants take a while to come up.. wait till it's the end of 3 weeks.. at the end of 3 weeks you should have somewhere around 70% or higher germination if you are doing everything right.. which seems that...

Awesome man! glad everything is doing so well, Congratulations... I was wondering when they updated post would be after your little break from them stating that your now a father lol

another tray of 40 pepper planted.. my yard is going to more pepper plants than grass lol

yeah 9 days isn't long at all.. another week and you should see another set pop up.. as PaulG said, it depends on the type of peppers, and who they are from.. wait a full month before you start getting impatient lol, then you can wonder why the heck the seeds haven't come up.. and even then...

I'd just keep them white personally, yes black does look a little better, but I just figure it can look a little bad for a few months, but most people should be looking at how big my pepper plants are :lol: and not the buckets as much... and if they say something, I will offer them a pepper to...

yeah what everyone else said, there are usually one or 2 seed give-away threads a week.. or close to it at least this time of the year I have noticed, when people have planted them and have a few extra around.. and welcome

lol, that is what I have heard.. which is why I think it's so strange... but anyways, I have some tepin peppers starting to form on my young plants.. can't wait to give them a shot.. although they apparently take forever to ripen.. my Bulgarian Carrots have had pods on them for about a month...

damn, well it's just starting to have warmer days around here.. so I will have to start looking around seriously now.. another month and I will get to pot up the ones I plan on keeping in the 5 gallon buckets to overwinter.. and then eventually the ones that don't fit in the garden will go in...

I have had my fan on a lot lately, and if I can get this other smaller fan I have apart and cleaned out, I am going to stick the smaller 10 or 12" fan in the top corner of the grow room and keep it on while the lights are on all the time.. and then just leave the larger 18" oscillating fan on...
