what's the coldest temp at lights off time?
Mine indoors it was not getting cold enough for them to produce... but when I started putting them outdoors they podded up like crazy because it had a full cool/hot cycle.
It messed with all my superhots..
and on the other hand..... japapenos and...
I'm noticing now my stem cap tops look different.. mine are like 2-Parts, while otheres are like 3-4? and separated.
but mine are looking truer like those above ArkansasJack has, with the stem tops being 2 sections.
And like the original BBG7 look like.
yeah it will turn also if its true. In the case of my pods... They are not ripe yet.. not even close to fully ripe.
I still don't know if mine are true or not..
I have also seen some pods but they are missing the trait. These peppers are still only f4-f5 generation so there will be...
I'll have to see if this goes red after the orangish color it is now. It's looking very orange on about 6 peppers so far. My other plant has lots of peppers but none ripening yet.
how long did your pepper take to ripen.. I have one with a bright orange patch on it, 1st one ripening... looks alot like that shade to me....
is mine I think looks orange.
do you have any ripening pictures for the stages. I'm in Maine also, and mine are looking like they are ripening with brown stripes on the sides.
I'm just trying to find the ripening stages/pictures of these, so I can see the color stages.
my plants are so close... ill post pictures tonight....... I did in my spare time.... cross some bbg7 pollen on a carolina reaper plant.. (once it takes ill start my hybrid experiment, over winter..)
from what my buddy says... he started growing them and they exploded in growth.. then he found out later that your supposed to have some massive area for vertical growth available. Also I don't think year 1 will produce for you.
I would check with a more knowledable grower on the subject but I...
wohoo.. mine are finally podding up. Very small pods forming but they have to start somewhere!
was a great idea to finally get them outdoors for the season.
what size are the biggest leaves on everyones plants. I have some huge leaves on the bottom and then towards the canopy I have some smaller couple inch leaves around where all the flowers are. I know its probably from heavy feeding of nitrogen but I wanted to get my feeding schedule right now...
I was worried about doing that and not remembering what flower I left true. I have a few sweet banana peppers I grew for a breeding experiment, I'm going to hit a few flowers on this with the pollen and just tag the branches and pull off the additional flowers on the branch. then I can tell...
I'm getting so much flower drop or no visible pollen. I'm growing inside I noticed high humidity like 80 percent and 82 temp. I thought it was to hot so I turned up the fan and pulled up the lights indoors to get less heat and time in the sun. Since that less flower drop but still no pollen.
so still not peppers forming.
my bubblegum 7pot still is losing flowers quite a bit... my reaper on the other hand.. has tons of flowers..and is becoming my strongest plant, since dropping off a feeding schedule.
i did take my fan off them for a few days and ill stick them back today.
I...
