    Mild choc/brown suggestions?

    I'm stumped here folks.  I think  I'm a pretty good grower, at least past the initial learning curve.  Chinenses give me no trouble at all and I've got more superhots in my freezer and closet than I'll ever use, but one thing keeps eluding me: a mild, sweet, smoky brown/chocolate annum or...

    Maintaining dormancy....in the fridge?

    I'm sure this sounds bizarre, but it just occurred to me that I might be able to overwinter plants in a bare-root or semi bare-root state in my kitchen refrigerator....it's relatively humid and stays consistently just above freezing where a chili should be totally dormant.  Assuming I can keep...

    Extending the Growing Season

    After an early-July disaster involving a mislabelled fertilizer that nearly killed all my plants, everyone recovered nicely.  But now it's almost September and I'm just starting to get the hot-and-heavy flowering I would have otherwise had going on by mid July.  I've harvested only a few dozen...

    Purple Leafed 7-Pot?

    One of the 7-pot long's I'm growing (pepperlover seed) has dark purple foliage.  Not just a spot here and there, or new leaves, etc., but the entire plant.  While I had assumed the parent had picked up some donor pollen from a pimenta, purple bhut, or something else, do peppers ever just throw a...

    media Jiffy Peat Pellets....Never Again.

    So I had started a thread a while back asking what the heck was wrong with my then 3 week or so old seedlings, which were growing extremely slow and whose cotyledons and then leaves were shriveled and curled up. The consensus seemed to be that there was too much moisture in the soil and after a...

    Please Help - Sickly Sprouts

    Hi all, first post here - longtime reader. I'm stumped as to what's wrong with my seedlings. They are 2 weeks old, started in Jiffy pellets, kept at a constant 85 degrees on the heat mat, and for the last week have been under T8's at 6500k. The first to sprout seemed to come up quick then...
