seems to be coming back for the most part. I changed a few things, got rid of rock wool and fabbed up some foam inserts to hold them, temp seems to be a problem since I cannot get water temp below 80*. But they are still kicking. I did add a air pump with 3 small stones. Also added fresh...

Also ph is at 6.07. meter was cal'd about a month ago when I got it.

cant figure out the picture rotations...but the roots seem fine. However, I dont really know what I am looking for other than slime and algae which does not seem to be a problem. also, my aerogarden does not have a bubbler on it, only a circulation pump. I have thought about adding a air pump...

here goes...

temp seems to stay right around 80 according to my thermometer,The aero graden is on my desk at work and the office is temperature controlled. I also have a small fan to ensure circulation. Can root rot be a problem with suspended plants and recirculating water? the water/nutes was just...

The first pic was July 1st, second was July 3. I had just completed a water change and moved the bigger plants from the back to the front. I am not sure what happened. They were doing so well. now it seems one by one the are giving up. the nutes are the same strength as before. The ph is in...

Glad you said this cause my ghost peppers are hotter than the pods I got off of this CB plant. Color is nice but heat just is not there. Will wait and see if I can nurse it back to health and get a propper ripening on it first. Thanks!

Congrats, I too felt the frustration as only 1 out of 10 seeds germinated in my batch.  It has been the laziest plabt I have ever come across. Been growing for 2 years, and barely over 1ft x1ft x1ft in size, and currently has put out only 4 pods, only one of which resembling the typical reaper...

I bought four pots of bonnie ghost peppers, three of them were doubles, I eventually separated them into their own pots. Earlier this season I planted three of them in a giant patio planter and mixed up a batch of soil to fill it. I think I hit the jackpot with my ratio as they have exploded...

What about a brighter shade cloth? Giving it a little more light to help with drying out, but not full sun... Maybe like 25% shade vs 50%

I have recently harvested a few pods now from this plant that had ripened to varying degrees, I went ahead and cut them open to harvest the seeds prior to drying. The larger pods seem to produce an abundance of seeds, however after harvesting and testing about half a dozen pods, I am unimpressed...

This turned into quite an interesting read. On the bright side, I placed two empty 5 gallon buckets in front of my planted DWC bucket and it seemed to help. I also changed out my nutes and ph'd the new solution. the leaves look sad still but gained some green. and new leaves are slowly poking...

I have a reaper plant that is putting out what looks to be 2 chocolate ghost looking pods. It previously attempted to put out an actual reaper shaped pod complete with the stinger, but it was eaten in half by a Caterpillar. (I found the smoking remains of the offender on the ground next to the...

hmmm I happen to have a 1500 gallon in ground pool relatively close, perhaps I could submerge a coil in the pool, it would be a water to water heat exchanger. I like trying to engineer a diy solution for simple problems, MacGuyver was my hero lol

Yeah, thats kinda what I was thinking too. Once I get my garage cleaned out and finished, I will have a little rack to put my plants on with a flourescent grow light on it. For now just going to try to keep it alive.

76 degrees outside in Tampa...thats funny. On a serious note, Siv, I thought about putting the bucket in the ground too. Right now moved it under the patio roof so it gets morning sun for a few hours then shade. I guess time will tell.

Set-up is outside. Worried about the heat as I checked the temp today around noon and water temp was over 95 degrees May 25th, May 29th

pictures from oldest up to now... March 19, April 22, May 9th

Started this pepper plant from seeds, grew slow at first then picked up some. With the hot humid summer weather, it has slowed so much I was afraid it was rootbound. But when I went to inspect the roots, the soil was just about perfect, not compacted, warm and moust but not wet. No visible...

Howdy from Tampa. I have a few peppers growing in containers, 4 Ghost peppers, a Butch T Scorpion,Carolina Reaper, and Choclate Bhutlah, as well as a few other types of plants. Joined because I need help, I am struggling to grow these super hots as a spare time hobby.
