Hi everybody!!!

Bad news today.

5 dead seedlings today!!!
2 - Aji Angelo
1 - Aji Piura
1 - Aji Omnicolor
1 - Brazilian Pumpkim.

Possible reason: Damping Off and lack of enough light (my seedlings light doesn't arrived yet).

I hope it stops.

FireEater101 · Jan 27, 2013

Sorry to hear of the loss of some of your seedlings but I hope you have others of those types that are coming along for you too. You got a great list of peppers I must say. Specifically I will be interested to see how your Marconi pepper does even though it is not a hot one. I have Marconi seeds myself that I plan to start later this week. Sweet indoor setup you got too! I hope 2013 grows well for you!!

I should be growind a Aji Crystal this grow and like the looks of the omnicolours so wishing them much luck.

Some pictures from ny seedlings today.

Some are leggy, some doesn't. I realy must buy one more fixture like this one to get enought light over the seedlings.

My test plants from December 2012.

Aji Escabeche and Rocoto Costa Rica Red

And here from above...

The metal measuring cup is a 100ml size.

And the seedling on the right corner with a dedicated light is one Rocoto Canario i cut off the "head" by accident when i tryed to erase the helmet. But i didn't gave up on this and she started to develop one leaf this week.

See you... Flávio.

Plants look fine. You can move the light closer to the plants, gradually. All that's needed is a small fan directed at the seedlings to disperse the heat.
The test plants are moving along nicely...

Today i got a good photo... The Sun is back to north of Norway (actually 25/01/2013... but only today the sky was blue).

Soon i'll take my seedlings to the living room when we get more Sun light.

See you... Flávio

Hi!!!

Some photos from yesterday:

Baccatum, Pubescens, Numex and 1 TSBT.

I had to separete these here because they are growing faster than the others in the startbox. The 6 on the left side are Aji and 3 on the right side are Numex

Here are my two test plants from Desember: I pruned the top to see what happens on the growing of these plants.

Just one thing is intriguing me: in some of my plants soil has formed a kind of green slime. I tryed to remove but is not working.
Is it bad to the plants? Does anyoen have a sugestion how can i solve this issue?

See you... Flávio.

cariocarj01 · Feb 25, 2013

Hi...

A little worry today.

Two of my Aji Escabeche has these "things" on the leaves.

Does someone knows what is this and how to fix it?

Thank you in addvance for help.

See you... Flávio

Flávio,
Great list, sweet grow box and super start off … Man that T-5 puts out some light and looks space age

great luck in 2013 grow! Looks cold outside :o

Those bumps could be too much water and moisture, cut back the watering

Great start. Cutting back the water could help with the green slime, too.
