Hi everyone! It’s been quite a few years since I’ve posted and after lurking around for the last couple months all excited about growing peppers again I decided it was time for a THP reunion :party:  I’m happy to see a small handful of familiar faces still around and I’m Iooking forward to...

A few members including myself are growing seeds for this variety ASAP. I and a few others here on THP thought it would be fun to have a "community glog" strictly for this variety, a fun thread about the HP22B and growing this pepper for the first time. I think we should start a community glog...

In a box filled with normal looking orange habaneros, this guy showed up at my work today...

So I have a few questions about soil.. As some of you saw the more "chunky" jam packed soil I potted starts up with was a bad idea and sent my plants into a downward spiral. They're now in a very light fluffy soil and doing too well. But here's what I don't understand. I've potted up gallon size...

Hey Everyone :) 2012 will be my first full year being a member of this great forum. So, I figured why not do a start to finish growlog for the first time. Instead of writing down a journal of germination times, flower times, ferts, soils, plant out dates, etc.. like I have in the past.. I'll be...

Hey Everybody! PepperGuru recently warned me of aphids showing up on my plants that I'm overwintering.. I didn't see any when I brought them in and thought I might have gotten lucky.. Nope. 2 weeks later I found a ton of aphids on almost all of my plants. He told me to hit him up when they...

I've spent literally my whole day(and its one of my few days of vacation from work AND I'm sick as shit) looking for T5 lights for my overwinter op.. I bought 12 T5 Highoutput bulbs(5000 lumens each which I was excited about). Ran me 100 bucks.. So then I needed some fixtures for them right...

Hey Guys. I decided to start a growlog. I will include up to date pictures of whats going on now, My 40+ variety 250+seeds I'm starting this December indoors, And soon I'll post pictures of either me failing, or successfully keeping my current plants alive through the winter in my garage...

Hello Everybody, I have a few questions on how to continue my pepper plants growth throughout our winter. I posted the topic in the lighting section but no bites(don't know if this topic works here too):confused: Others have PMed me that are in need of advice on this exact same thing so I hope...

Hello All. I have a few questions about lighting. I have a 8X6 Greenhouse in the back of my garage that I'm getting ready for my pepper plants for a winter home. It's my first year overwintering and because alot of my plants are so late in production I would like to keep em growing so they can...

Been in the produce biz for almost 9yrs now so when I opened the new box of orange habs to check on quality and saw... My face probably resembled - :shocked: None of the others looked like this, in my 9 years I've never seen one like that. It's HUGE, and has pimples. So being a chilehead...

Hello everyone. Been a ROUGH year up here, up until the last week the weather hasn't broke 80 for more than 1 hour, not only that but I saw an article on our local news channel that said it's been the wettest, coldest summer in 35 years here in Western Washington, I thought I'd give you that...

Hey Everyone. I've realized over the year that in order to do it right you gotta do it yourself. So I've been collecting seeds from many growers throughout the last couple months (none from ebay!) Being in the produce business for 8 years now I've realized.. NOBODY here in Washington can get...

Today I decided to bring my pepper plants out of the greenhouses to see the real world:) Kinda funny how the story goes.. My wife who has a serious brown thumb.. told me I might be "babying them too much".. It dawned on me.. 3 years ago I had the best grow year so far (given we had the weather...

Been awhile since I've posted so I figured I'd take some pictures and give you all an update :D last time I posted I told everybody it'd been the worst spring I've experienced so I bought some greenhouses.. Well our summer your wondering? We've had 78minutes of summer weather (it being over 80...

So, I'm confused about germination.. I've seen all the tips on this site and I'm trying the plastic cup paper towel technique as an experiment, seeds have been in there for 3 days.. nothing yet, too early to tell. anyway.. 3years ago when I had no knowledge of growing pepper plants and was...

Hello Everyone, I'm from western Washington and this is my 4th year growing hot peppers, and my first year growing super hots. This year has been FULL of rain.. So. I bought 2 8X6 greenhouses from Lowes. I figured there's no way my plants would produce the way the weathers been.. It's a 20degree...

Hello everyone :) I'm Brandon. I'm from rainy Western Washington, I've been Gardening for 5 years now. From exotic flowers to heirloom tomatoes to hot chilies, I've always kind of made it up as I went along and would like to say I have a pretty green thumb :P. In the the last 3 years I've...
