for me once i see aphids indoors its time to get rid of everything and start growing something else. by the time the next round of seeds sprout i don't have to worry about them coming back for hopefully a few months. Ive tried all sorts of things from soaps to spays to powders to pruning and...
can't go wrong with a Scotch Bonnet. For indoor year round my staples are Scotch Brains, Chocolate Ghost, and a good ole Bhut Jolokia. My theory for my indoor peepers is to grow all-around peppers with good heat and flavor that i can eat with whatever meal.
What size system are you planning on? Are you married to Kratky or will other methods work?
I've used Fox Farms nutrients in DWC setups for a few years and am happy with the result given the ease of use.
Very impressive. I keep my seeds in various baggies in a freezer bag tucked away in the cabinets. I do have a google sheet that i use to track what im grows, seeds i have, and such.
Got a plant growing hydroponically inside right now that is just starting to fill up with pods and another in the grow tent getting ready to go outside in a month. So far so good on them.
1. Waited one more weak to move my plants outside. a freak storm and cold front basically set me back a month.
2. Probably a Pubescens.
3. Im happy with the varieties i've grow this year. Ill change it up next year as usual but i have found a few keepers.
depending on where he is in SoCal he could potentially grow year round, especially if the plants were in bags that could be moved in the garage for the 1 - 2 days a years where it might matter. There is probably still over 5 months until first frost date.
That is a really good point. I know that the phenotype of the seeds i have certainly dont match what i have seen from others, though they are tasty enough to keep growing each year.
