I am in Japan and have been using pots. Easiest for me so plants dont get over watered in the rainy season.

I think I am going to try Azamax if the organic Garden Safe Insecticidal Soap does not do any good. I spray them buggers off and seem to be gone then 3 days later they are back again in force! I just want them gone, especially since most of my plants are starting to fruit now. My poor leaves are...

Thanks for the help. Will definitely have to order some Neem Oil tonight. I haven't seen the oil here in Japan so looks like a visit to Amazon for me. They are the pest! By far the worse to get rid of. When I get my green house set up outside I am going to unleash some ladybugs on them if I...

I have started growing my hot peppers this winter and they have been doing very well up until recent. I have been growing them indoors the entire time and had them when they were little inside a green house with lights. These bugs have taken over and I can't get rid of them! I have sprayed them...

Using a combination of both natural and artificial light. Have a set up in the window. Japan doesnt have very long days in the winter. Sun usually doesnt start coming up till around 7 and by 1600 it is dark out again. Summers are crazy, the sun is up at 0345ish and doesnt set till close till...

Super busy this week 12-14 hr work days. Finally had a chance to check my jiffy pots and realized that they were lacking some moisture. Still have about 20ish jiffy pots with still no seedlings. Hoping tomorrow will get some after some much needed water. I am really looking forward to some...

Looking great!

Great setup with the cardboard. We have the equivalent of 99 cent store here but its called the 100 yen store. Will definitely be using your method with the cardboard. My last plants I grew them in the exact same pots and when transplant time came I just cut the squares through with the shovel...

Thats a great classic gameboy you have there on the shelf :P Give those babies a bigger pot and they will be "happy happy happy" (Phil, Duck Dynasty)

This was my Habs before giving them their own homes.

Well was encouraged to start a grow log so here is goes. I started my first set of seeds a week before Halloween. I sewed about 25 of my own habanero plant seeds. Was hoping I would be able to get a few plants from them if anything at all. I started these while I was waiting for other seeds to...

Add me! Want to be on this train! Sounds exciting. I have a bunch of seeds I would love to add to this train when I get it.

I use a heating pad that was bought for $11. Modern heating pads have an auto shutoff so I was able to take apart the control mechanism and disable the auto shutoff by desoldering the IC chip. It was really easy and I have used it for the past month to germinate seedlings with no issues and...

Everything is looking great Doc! Wish I would have started a glog when I began around the beginning of October. Just started another container of about 10 different peppers 2 weeks ago. Your green house is awesome. Trying to warm the wife up to getting one, I figured if I stuff enough plastic...

How did this work out for you? Just overwintered some plants and getting ready to bring inside and I woke up this morning to two chewed up 6in habanero seedlings. Fortunately, I have about 25 seedlings still but they are still in the box where they cant get to them. Trying to find something so...
