I was thinking, just now, that I wish there was a full-on Pepper Photography forum/sub-forum. I'd post there :)   .

I've been noticing a lot of nurseries around me have been selling a lot of ultra hots. Well, I have no idea how many they are actually selling, but they're stocking them...   Armstrong has Trinidad Moruga Scorpions, Ghost peppers, and even Carolina Reapers, lol!   This one comes with this cute...

Starting a purple thread. While there will be pictures of normal green plants, the main focus will be the color PURPLE  :eek:   Got a few varieties of things that came in, but only germinating a few for fun since it's so late into the season already. If anything, my plan is to toss a few pics up...

I think it is pretty obvious here that a lot of THP members cross pollinate and even breed their own peppers.   I figured it would be a really fun thread to have separated from the GLOGs to give those people a place to post ideas, questions, GLOG's, and results all in one place (all pertaining...

Hey ya'll   I'm just looking for some suggestions for pepper plants with broad purple leaves. I have seen some really  nice crosses in the GLOG's this year (does not need to be a cross, commercially available is just fine).   The peppers don't have to be hot, but they do have to taste good. The...

Feel free to chime in with some pics of what you would NOT want to find in your garden.    click on the names for the facts   Lets start off with the fact that I have had bouts in the past with snails and slugs... But, could you imagine finding an infestation of these guys?! Albino Banana...

What ppm's are you getting straight from the tap?     You don't have to be specific where you live, but general location would be nice...   This is just a fun thread, no specific meaning other than random knowledge.   Here in SoCal (not Los Angeles) I get anywhere from 200-300 ppm out of the...

Need a pepper, pick a pepper   I posted something about this when I first put the jalapeno there, but I can't find that thread.   So here it is.   Before     And today after some well thought out trimming and a few changes in wire... Though the peppers really do the weighing down for me now...

Hey ya'll   So I never really measure anything, PH included, but I noticed some leaves yellowing and decided to check my run-off. I found the ph to be very low.    Does anyone else have issues with low ph with compost teas? If so, what do you add to correct it? (I have ph up and dolomite lime...

I made this [obviously] for canna males, but the same idea can be used indoor and outdoor if the goal is to isolate one whole plant. If you have a small plant growing indoors/outdoors that you want to make sure is not pollinated by another, this idea or your own variation of may help. (I...

I have done some crosses and played around with immediately collected pollen. But I was wondering:   1) what people do to collect pollen in "bulk" as much bulk as that can be...   2) And how do you store it?   3) How long have you been able to store pollen and it was still viable for use?   I...

I know this is not a new method and there are a thousand different ways to do this, I just wanted to share how I do it in case someone is new to the forum and could use as much information as possible.   This is just for new farmers' information, not meant for seasoned growers, unless you do it...

I just finished watching the youtube video from subcool about super soil and he mentioned that gnat problems can be fixed by mixing up the full-labeled dose of Azamax and doing a soil drench.   I was just wondering if anyone has tried this out yet?   ***Specifically the soil drench delivery...

I know anything can be used, and up till now I was using panty hose. But after tying it a few times, I decided to see what other ideas I could come up with. This caught my eye and I just wanted to share.   At 13 cents per bag...

Does anyone know of, or can link a timer that can do 18 hours of light and 12 hours of dark, ignoring the normal 24 hour day period?   I have a theory, but all timers I find will only work on a 24 hour cycle.   BTW: I am talking about power outlet timers, not watering timers which I have seen...

A few weeks ago I took my friend's kid to buy what ever seeds he wants from Lowes. And to accommodate those seeds, we made a raised bed for them to be planted, and called it 'Samson's Garden'.   But with the little seedlings that are going in there, I wanted to add a shade cloth.   So I figured...

 part 1 Indoor grow box made from an old dresser converted to a stealth box. Housing a 125watt fluoro grow light which does wonders for vegging. DWC reservoir made from an extra plastic bin laying around which I painted to keep the light off of the roots and cut holes for the net pots which...

This is not really a post meant for seasoned growers. This is really meant for people that are just starting out that ask the question, when will I know to water my plants.   Generally, I suggest to use the dig 1 inch method. Whereas you use your finger or a chopstick to dig 1 inch into the...

I have posted a few posts already and just realized that I have not yet introduced myself.   I live in So. CA, Orange County and have just started getting interested in the ultra hots. I have grown many things and my "other" garden is a completely customized DWC system. My expertise with "that"...

The potted ones will be up-potted and brought outside when the weather is a little nicer.   Homemade DWC reservoir   http://s1349.photobucket.com/user/mrgrowguy/library/Ultra%20Peppers
