In the end - not alot. Some nice pepper / chilli flavour on the tounge as you eat it and you can definetly taste the naga, but it doesnt linger and doesnt hit the back of your throat like some super hot sauces do. pretty much how i wanted it as my wife doesnt like it TOO hot. Ill add 1 naga per...

just remember to go easy on the garlic. It may taste good "NOW" but after a few weeks the garlic flavour really comes out - i made that mistake when i 1st tried a sauce :lol:

nice one - looking good. im still waiting for pods to set on my one and only plant. Started flowering just before xmas. with the weather in syd this year its hard to tell when it'l happen

shite hey - i feel for ya gas i didnt get a pepper all last season due to the prob your having. Still dont know what caused it So far this year, ive avoided it, thank god

:shame: bombs are bad mmmkay... ;) you could always try ebay ? I know here in Aus its fairly simple to get on ebay - probabily monitored by the government :party:

i was always under the impression that bumpy leaves like this were a result of too many nutes. the green "flesh" of the leaves were growing faster than the stem / vein of the leaf - resulting in a bumpy texture

g'day Slick thx for the update - least you've got SOME chillis started. This is my 2nd year growing from seed and i learnt some stuff from last year: -Seeds dont need light, just heat and water. So keep the planted seeds inside in a warm spot (ontop of the fridge for me) -seeds dont need much...

at the end of my last season i repotted my chilli plants - choped the plant back to a simple twig, cut the root ball back ALOT and repotted them into small containers and left them in the garage (had a small window with a tiny bit of light). 3 months later all but one survived the winter. i...

what a timely topic. this weekend i plan on stocking up on fert and soil - even better because most of the stuff posted here is from Aus. Gas - where's you get Brunnings Tomato Magic Growing Mix. I plan on hitting the one stop shop Bunnings. hope its there

Strongly recommend you checking out Fade's grow log here: http://www.thehotpepper.com/topic/14213-fades-grow-log-2010/ as was already said, this is not a new problem. Myself, fade and a handful of other members had this problem last year and its devestating. We still havent worked out what...

pretty sure they are whats commonly refered to as "Fungus gnats". do a google search on em General consensus is they are a problem for small and developing plants. large established plants people tend not to worry "Indoor gnats, which are also known as fungus gnats, are not only annoying...

good stuff Im in Syd too and started a bunch of seeds on Aug 8 (prob a bit early as it was still coldish). It took a while but my fatali's and bhuts are just started to pop up now. 4/6 and 3/6 respectivley. The other non chinese variety took about 2 weeks to germ . i guess just be patient ;)

Hi All I had a horror season last year and i couldnt nail down the problem before winter hit but i think it was due to mite damage. Ive potted down and overwintered my plants and they are looking good - cut back the roots, all the leaves and the stem to the 1st major node. Ive also kept most...

so envious. My bhuts started flowering last week. Hopefully ill get "A pod" before the cold really hits (still yet to grow a single chilli)

exactly the same with me ! The only pests im finding are whiteflies - but all reports say that they really dont cause too many drama's (if any) No pests, no virus no real identifiable problem... (sorry for spelling i shmashed ;p ) Seriously - try the drainage theory. what can u loose. Id be...

hey fade 2 weeks ago i flushed my plots and was really vigilant with watering. basically havent watered at all since - just a folair spray now and then in the morning. I kept the pots on an angle for a day and used a wick to improve drainage.... and my effected plants are starting to come back...

Nah. More holes won't help. Just try 1. Don't let the pot sit in water - ie: a full saucer 2. Tip it sideways to drain. 3. Use a wick if needed to suck out excess 4. Only water when needed.

I think a few forum members here are having the same issue, but no1 has solved it yet. Do a forum search and checkout threads by fade_to_black and myself and gasfid... Also check out my drainage thread. I think this may be the cause.

Mate, I feel for ya. I do. I'm still having the same issue and now it's on 5 of my 7 plants - really disheartening. After a bit of reading and asking around I'm thinking it's not mite / pest related at all. I think the problem has to do with overwatering and lack or air to the roots. There's...
