My alcheapo greenhouse with the little seedlings. The seedlings on the top rack are from seeds given by Nova. And the seedling on the very bottom rack are from seeds from Omri. Thanks guys.

And last but not least my ever so little garden. Me and my partner decided to give some shade to the plants as they were getting scorched a bit. What yous reckon. I am also thinking of putting up a diy watering system made of PVC pipes. Current plant is as below. Any ideas or improvements as more then welcome.

The watering plant below will be closed with endcaps. Any ideas on timers. Do you think i should let the water spray out from the top or use the drip method?

Anyways guys that's all for now. More to come soon.
 
So happy with my choc and red hab. Orange has is finally slowing down.

Top is my orange hab which has about 4 pods still waiting to ripen. Once harvested i'd love to prune it and put it in the greenhouse. Just don't know how to prune it. Any ideas what bits should i cut and how much.

Another thing i have noticed is one of the pods has been on that plant for too long. Pods that came after that one has already ripened and have been harvested but this little fella doesn't seem to be ripening at all. Reckon it's a green habanero?

My hot bishop plant has out out some little pods for me.

And this is what my greenhouse looks at the moment. Now to find some space for my chilli plants.

My second round of seedling of superhots aren't doing very well. They were stunned by the gnats which are completely gone now. I have fed fish manure to the plants and have been watering accordingly but a few plants have died. Others have yellowish leaves. Plants are very leggy with maybe 3 to 3 leaves only. Might have to start another batch next season.

Thank you all ...
 
That greenhouse is definately cool :cool: Checked out the website from where you got yours and will be buying one of the 3m x 1.5m ones soon coz iy gets cold where I am. Plus I've got about a dozen different varieties I wanna get growing, Can't wait to grow the choc habs cause yours look great
 
Pots are 25 cm dia. I am thinking of pruning them back once they've finished fruiting. Then next spring they move into large pots.
