Hello everyone!
I have decided to put my efforts into growing some hot peppers while I am out of work waiting on surgery. I severed my radial nerve at my job last November and will be having surgery done soon.
Anyways I have been a gardener for a long time and I worked professionally at my university for seven years.
Following the forums here and there until I decided to sit down here at THP to plant my roots.
A little about the grow:
I current have germinated several red and yellow ghost chilies that I received last year from a friend out of state. Last week I received in the mail twenty or so Carolina reaper seeds from puckerbutt pepper company. Next week I should be receiving several more strains, My grow list consists of 7 pot, red yellow and brown ghost, red yellow and brown scorpions, butch t, trinidad moruga, tree habeneros, devils tongue, fish pepper, twilight numex, black Cuban and a few others.
Just today I bought some new toys to help along with my venture:
My set up is going to be as follows:
4x4 gorilla tent
400w-600w hps w/digital adjustable ballast
Hyper Fan by phresh 6" @ 315cfm
Phresh filter 6"x24" 550cfm
General hydroponics water farm
As I said my seeds just began to sprout on my red and yellow ghost,
giving me some time to fiddle around with my equipment
just testing the light and making sure it is in working condition after a hour long drive and a long dirt road.
As for my thyme, oregano, and chives they will most likely be done in soil still at the drawing board on that one.
I hope this is posted in the right section as I will update periodically with more information. Thanks for checking it out! Any feed back is appreciated.
