    Sauce Separation

    I've had a couple sauces begin to separate after bottled.  Most recently It was a Jerk hot sauce that I made.  Are there certain ingredients that cause this to happen?  As I'm writing this I'm realizing I simmered many of the ingredients with a little bit of oil, and I can imagine the oil will...

    breeding-crossing How likely will peppers cross unassisted

    So, if I have a bed of peppers, each one about 2 feet from each other.  How likely will they cross pollinate if I do not aid in the process.  I want to harvest seeds from the peppers, but trying to figure out if I want to isolate pods or not.  I'm not going to be selling seeds or anything, it...

    When to pic banana peppers

    First time growing banana peppers.  I have a bunch that are already fruited up, and they are getting big real quick.  Not sure when to pick them... Whenever I feel they are big enough?  These were labeled as "hot banana", so I assume the longer I wait the hotter they will get.  Do they...

    plant-care Drip Irrigation

    I just installed a drip irrigation system, and I am wondering how long people let thiers run for.  I have mine set to run 1 hour a day every day.  The emitters are 1 gallon/hr, and I have the timer set at 530pm during the heat of the day.  I live on the east coast of VA so it gets fairly hot and...

    seeds-germination Germination Troubles

    I will start by saying that I am new to growing from seed.  So, I planted 24 varieties of pepers with 3 seeds per variety, which gives me a total of 72 seeds.  I sowed them into jiffy pellets and put them in the pan with the clear plastic dome on top.  I've been using a heat mat.  The...

    disease-pests Does this look like mold? And what do I do?

    First time starting from seed.  Once sprouted, I put them in the solo cups.  Each solo cup has 3 holes in the bottom, and I have been bottom watering.  I do have a fan that I put on for a few hours a day.  They sit under a T5 that's on for about 12 hours.  I've only watered the plants twice in...

    soil-media Pellet Question

    New grower here.  I started my seeds in peat moss pellets, and have a couple sprouts.  My question, is;  Am I supposed to remove the fabric case when I transplant to a pot of some sort?  I initially didn't think so, but the question of it just popped up in my head.
