    shopping looking to buy LED light, opinions?

    I haven't had any problems with getting superhots to pod up under LED grow light. What matters is PAR(Photosynthetically active radiation) and the wavelengths the diodes run at. You need to get wavelengths for both Chlorophyll a and b. At the peak absorption values for most performance. Lumens...

    Was labeled pinocchio's nose but looks like Jalapeno?

    Sure is beads of oil ;) Maybe it's much more common than I thought, I've just never noticed it before but I don't have a lot of experience! The seeds came from Trade Winds Fruit Store. I reckon the seeds should be viable? It sure was close to ripening. The plant has 50+ pods on it, will...

    Was labeled pinocchio's nose but looks like Jalapeno?

    This plant came from a seed company claiming it was pinocchio's nose pepper. All other came true without this one plant. Sure looks like a Jalapeno but I've never seen those brown walls inside a Jalapeno before. The heat was a real surprise too, gave me stomach pain. Felt more spicy than many...

    Chocolate habaneros

    I had about 30 seeds for this season, not a single one germinated while everything else germinated fine in the same setting. Was for sure bad seeds in my case, will try them again next year I think!

    third turtle ranch: growth.......

    How many plants would you estimate that you have? Think that harvest would be too much if it was only for me to consume haha You're referring to hornworms? Sure glad I've never seen them here. I'd sure be interested in seeing recent pictures of your plants and grow area, last time you posted...

    Is that the harvest you get every day or you let the pods stay on until many are ripen? Wish my table was full like yours hehe

    Slashroot's 2012 Pepper Season - Superhots under LED

    My DWC plants in the greenhouse has been growing much faster than those in soil. I suspect it's because of the cold soil here, nights can be down to 48F even now during the hottest months. The water reservoir in the DWC seem to hold the temperature a lot longer out through the night. I...

    Slashroot's 2012 Pepper Season - Superhots under LED

    That's a great source of information, been searching so much on Google but none as informative as your link. Think I might consider getting some of those products shipped from the states since none are available in my country. My eggplants and cucumbers are suffering the most, to the point of...

    overwintering Two sick overwintered plants, give them up?

    Finally getting rewarded for not trashing my two overwintered plants. They didn't grow very big, I realize that's because of the pot size. The Tabasco kinda stopped growing again but I transplanted in straight in the ground so it's starting to develop again. Too little time to get any pods on...

    Silver Surfer's 2012 Season Shots

    Kinda jealous that you can grow straight in the ground outdoors, never works good here. Simply too many pest bugs and too low temperatures. You sure got peppers skills, beautiful plants and pods :)

    Normal shaped Red Habanero?

    Wonder what the plant has been crossed with. I will never know, they were bought from a seed company. Haven't tasted any of them yet, still quite some time until they ripe. It sure is a superhot, got this bumpy skin that you can't see so easily on the images. Thanks for your opinions guys :)

    The worst thing thats happened to your plants

    Only got two seasons under my belt. Last season was a aphid infestation, pretty much stopping all my pepper plants from growing. This year there has been no aphids. Now I'm battling crazy amounts of thrips, so far a losing battle!

    leaves going brown underneath

    I'm probably no help but that leaf looks just like mine when I sprayed them with my homemade insecticide. Used a type of soap that damaged the leaves, using different one now mixed with neem oil. You haven't been spraying them with anything?
