It also depends on the media used to germinate them. From my experience, grow plugs like Rapid Rooters shave off about 5 days off their germination time compared to soil.

If you're a lazy person like me, and don't mind missing on the potential extra benefits of self made soil, then just go with store bought mix. I think some people mix their own soil because it's cheaper too. I like Fox Farm the best out the those. It's a mix of castings, guano, pretty much...

A Cybershot 14.1 MP camera. Compared to other cameras, I would suppose it's pretty good, but with my cameraphile eyes, it's kinda subpar, ha ha...

Here's some more pics. They ripen fast! Bhut Jolokia pod is nearly ripe. TS Butch T pod. Looks a little bit like a brain strain skin..

First generation. These were from seeds I got from fresh pods on eBay. I doubt they are 100% percent true to shape, which explains why they pods are all long like that.

I guess it's just about time. My TS pods are ripening as well. This is an F1 Plant btw, that's why these in particular lack the unique shape.

2 gallons, moving to 5. Also, holy crap, this thing ripens so fast! The thing ripened like 40% more in less than a day!

That's great! I've also trimmed the TS plant down about 3 inches, he was getting a bit too close to the lights... Atm, they've overgrown their pots, gotta move em up one final step before I can finally move them outside 2 months from now.. Also forgot to add, Giant Jalapeno has sprouted, it...

Day 130, week 18. First sign of ripening. Funny how it ripened on the side first. I notice that pods ripen from top to bottom usually. I suppose pods use gravity to figure out where's top and bottom!

These things grow so fast... I wonder if that's the source of all my problems. It's probably time to move up to 5 gallon pots then.

The bright green spots are bumps. I've had this specific issue for months now, but it didn't seem to have any ill effects on the plants. I've also got edema on my new leaves. It does seem to be overwatering, from the symptoms, but how does that explain why my soil is going dry so fast? I don't...

I am. These containers are well ventilated, they are Air Pot knockoffs. When I lift the pot when it's dry, it's seriously like half as light! The top is bone dry, and I can't dig more than a centimeter down, because the entire soil is colonized by roots! I doubt it's only the top, because when I...

Wow, almost forgot about this thread. Amazing, that's awesome!

I need help on this, guys. So, my plants have been doing great until about 3 weeks ago. Now, the flowers are constantly dropping before they even bloom, and the leaves are slowly dying off. Also, parts of the stem seem to turn color and have a slightly softer texture to it, like this: I have...

Yeah, looks like burning from wet leaves under the light.

It's probably the same as having 2 plants at once.

Durian, just one of those foods that you either hate or love. To me, it's like a sugary onion, yuck! Jackfruit though, delicious!

They shouldn't be that brittle, I don't think. When I go around buzzing my flowers with the toothbrush on my superhots, the stems are sturdy.

I thought the same thing too. Turns out that in my case, excess moisture was the problem. I could confirm this because edema was the worst in areas where leaves touched other leaves, causing excess moisture to collect there. after opening a vent hole, the tent isn't as hot and humid as before...

Mine? Mine was from a website that sold these. They are 2 gallon pots. The Air Pot was a gift from the site, not sure about the size though. The 2 gallon pots are Air Pot knockoffs, and they seem to work just as well. Roots form all the way to the soil surface...
