Thanks for your comment. Totally love the look of that plant, it does well as decoration hehe
Here's the rest of the pictures. All the gray stuff is sunburn.

Overview of the peppers!

Thought I would post some of my soil plants outdoors. Honestly I've been hiding them from you guys since they aren't that good looking.
Weathers been great the last week, warm to be in Norway. Low 65F and High 75F and full sun.
My plants are covered with dust / pollen from the trees around...
This is what they look like today. 21 days since last picture post.
The trees around here are producing some kind of pollen dust or something, covering everything outside. That's what the white dust on my plants are.
Very happy with the recovery of the plants :) Sure looks like they might get...
It's a good idea to pain the bucket white so it doesn't absorb so much heat. Sure can be hard to keep the reservoir temperatures low.
I made a 10 pot DWC system myself out of different parts. Still not happy with the temperatures even though my buckets are white. I know some people use foil to...
A lot of interesting plants you guys got, hopefully in many years I will have some old plants. Some say older plants produce less others say opposite. Honestly think that depends on so many factors that there is no correct conclusion?
Sure would be cool to make a bonsai out of some old pepper...
Interesting that I haven't even heard of a plant named cleo's dragon. Now I have to check that out hehe
You sure have a lot of overwintered plants. I got a goats weed growing nicely myself, it seems really slow on producing anything. All my superhots have produced pods but the goats weed...
I'm curious how old plants some of you guys got. I'm new in the field, only got two overwintered from last years season.
Does the main stem grow bigger and bigger each year?
That sure could be cal deficiency, I've had similar looking soil plants this season. Amazing how much of the curls that straightened out even on old leaves.
Hope in some weeks time your plants will be looking good. I wouldn't worry about it now that you've added some cal-mag.
I always check my...
What if you live in a place where the waterlines has almost no pressure, wouldn't be enough for drip irrigation. Could you connect a water pump to a large reservoir or something? I tried my own project with buying an aquarium pump but that wasn't even enough to run one drip emitter. Totally...
Thanks :) Honestly it's mostly my Trinidad Scorpion that has huge leaves, way bigger than my hands but it still haven't put out flowers. It enjoys growing more than producing haha
The plants I put straight in the ground in my greenhouse seem to have stopped growing, guess they just need some...
Many of the plants I have in my greenhouse look pretty much exactly like yours plus a bit of thrips damage. I put them too fast outside under direct sunlight giving them major sunburn. They are refusing to drop some of the badly sunburned leaves even though it's gone weeks.
I think your plants...
Starting to get more pods on the other plants too now, not only Manzano/Rocotos :)
Curious how long until the Manzano pods start turning red. Couple of pods seems to be done with growing in size.
Here's some pictures.

I so far prefer using a white very soft and small makeup brush with round tip for evenly touch. Soft so I don't break the flower pistil. Using one from MaxFactor now. Looks like like this one:
I make the tip of the brush wet but not dripping so it absorbs the pollen. Prefer white because I can...
Glad to see you got a nice produce of that plant, wish I had a few myself :) Am I right or are the leaves of the plant a bit light yellowish, reminds me a bit of magnesium deficiency.
Maybe just camera doing it, I'm no expert :)
