    I plan to give the airport garden another go this year.  Last year was the first with the rain-water collection system and experimentation on various water distribution methods and containers.  See my 2019 Glog for photos.   I have a couple raised beds I will continue to use, and the container...

    Full Spectrum LED adjustment

    I have a Progrowtech full spectrum LED light in my grow room.   Four foot square.  It has three knobs for LED adjustments. I set it up at end of last season (Wisconsin), and with little effort, I have been successful in overwintering five of my pepper varieties.  They did not thrive by any...

    3/4" hose connector help

    https://www.amazon.com/Connectors-Irrigation-Aquariums-Various-Available/dp/B079Y8QC1V?ref_=ast_bbp_dp&th=1   I have a similar set-up as you have pictured. I used the valves in the amazon link above, and strategically placed valves so portions of system can be isolated (if necessary).

    I picked up a LED grow light from work.  We are exploring grow-solutions with partners in the cannabis market, and we had a couple extras lying around; I managed to get my hands on one.     ... I'm not ready for the summer to end, so I decided to explore putting together a Grow Box (room) in my...

    Late season post.  I tried some Alaska Grow Buckets mid-season, with some success.  See color differences between regular buckets and Alaska buckets ...   I'll try this again next year.  They are 'set and forget' ... which works best for my schedule.

      The weather has definitely improved.  It has been nice and warm (hot) lately.  All the plants are doing pretty well.     I'm dealing with some Japanese Beetles, but feel like I've gotten ahead of them.   I purchased a couple envelopes of seeds from Lawrence Family Farms, and will probably...

    I will contact grower. They have an established business, and seemed to be quite friendly and knowledgeable. I assume there are different methods for isolating future flowers. Are there posts on this subject worth sharing?

    I bought an Espelette at farmers market today. See picture. Very healthy with pods. It was different from all others and seemed to be reputable/knowledgeable grower. I’m happy with it. I am newbie Pepper grower, but already thinking this will be my over-winter candidate as well as seed...

    overwintering Variety to winter

    Newbie here wants to know if there is a recommended variety that I might start from seed mid-summer, with the intention of planting next spring, OR making an indoor plant. Looking for something fun or unique. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Paul ... Wisconsin rainfall averages about 35 inches per year.  Like many others in the mid-west, we've had a particularly wet spring/early summer this year.   My problem at the airport is that I don't have access to water, except for what I can capture and hold.  It is also wide-open to wind...
