Second new thread in one night...I must really need help lol   Last season, late ion the year I had a number of younger plants I got or started way too late that I need to repot.  This was around late July early August.  I only had about 12 post and I had about 25 plants so I decided to order...

Last season was my first year growing peppers.   i am south of Tampa so my main issues were the heat and white flies.  On the whole, I was pretty pleased with the results but I found that certain species needed to be placed in a "sweet spot" for sun exposure to do well.  Unfortunately a few got...

I just got back from vacation and noticed that several of my adult plants have small patches of a pure white powdery substance on the underside of some leaves only.  It wipes off with a fingertip.  I'll get a pic up in a bit but...any ideas?

This was my first season growing and I had some solid success and some even more epic failures.  It was a learning year and, that said, next season I hope to do better.   In May, I bought a selection of Sugar Rush seedlings on an impulse.  Bad impulse.  All six plants were shipped jammed in a...

I'm thinking sunburn, but I want a more informed opinion.  I only have this sort of damage on a few plants...all Chinense          

I am looking for a few specific seed types.  Specifically, all three of the sugar rush varieties.  My preference would be to buy from a forum member but, failing that, are there any recommendations for commercial seed sellers?

I am pretty new to this and was looking for recommendations on a good grinder for turning dried pods into powder.

Well...I am having a fun first season.  I mentioned in a previous thread that I had a lot of pods dropping from both my Jalapenos and Cayennes, ostensibly due the extermely unseasonable heat in zone 9B over the last few weeks (high 90's)   I have cut a number of them open and they all look like...

Given the fact that these come from a cooler alpine climate in the wild, is anyone having any success with them in central or south Florida?

I have a question regarding the amount of direct sun that plants should be receiving.   I am in Zone 9B.  All of the original research I did when I first decided to give pepper growing a try this season indicated that they should recieive full sun.  I started with the following seven peppers   1...

I want to apologize for the series of new threads.  I am a total noob when it comes to peppers (first season) and I am a big fan of experience   This plant was a Bonnie Plants Start.  It has grown well and looks very healthy.  Pods started ripening a couple of weeks ago.  The first 7 or 8 were...

I know there are a lot of threads on the forum regarding similar situations but there seems to be a different slate of answers on each.  I figured a pic would tell the story better   This is one of several chinense that I have going.  All are being cared for similarly.  Light fertilization every...

Well, my first pepper growing experiment has taken another bad turn. Several weeks ago, I purchased two plants from a vendor at our local fles market.  One was a super Chile that already had a number of small peppers strarting. This one was puchased about a month ago.  It looked healthy as a...

I am relatively new to pepper growing and I am big on research.  I have read several threads as well as a number of articles on scaling up on pot size and the information varies a lot.   Here is my question:  From seedling to mature plant, how many times do most of you upsize pots on average?  A...

I need some guidance from more experienced pepper growers.   I have a fair amount of gardening experience but this is my first foray into container grown hot pepper plants. I am located in Bradenton Florida.  The plants are being grown in containers on my pool deck.  There are a total of 10 with...

Hi All   Hot peppers are a new project for me although i do have a fair bit of gardening experience.  I have been running into a few issues and have been looking for a good online resouce to share info on.     This looks like the place
