Keep it up Denniz and you will eating supers like the big dogs. Your plants are really filling out. And to answer your question you can easlily repot that pepper as long as you don't disturb the root structure it won't phaze it

thanks for the info... will transplant tomorrow in the AM...


these guys get 8am-5pm sun all day ,... my question is since its being filtered... does it slow down the growth since....(not the same strength of sun)
temps can get to 90+... so what ive decided to do is open up the center in the AM and cover it up by noon giving them 4+ of sun

Lemon cucumber

Love this picture!!!

I'm looking forward to hearing your review of the Jamaican Hot Chocolate. I'm growing the regular Chocolate Habs this year, and a long pod version, but I'm not sure my season's long enough to even get a harvest on them!

. Thank you for the kind words. Not my fave cucumber. Than again. This is officially my 1st year growing them. (harvested only 3 last time) so maybe I might like them. Persian is my fave so far. My nursery has a photo contest so I'll be snapping some photos to enter.

Btw had Popeyes chicken with romy's hybrid bhut 1" and halved it with a buddy tonight. Either I got a dud. Or I'm growing tolerant to them. Hahaha.

In other news. This is a text from my wife. Thought it was funny:
"I know it burns me, burns my mouth, burns my lips...the stinging sensation stays on my lips... And yet I keep coming back... Can't help it... Can't resist... I love it.. I love peppers!!!"

[MAFWIZ]

Dennis those don't look like spider mites to me. In my experience spider mites live on the backside of leaves and leave them with little white dots all over the topside, and in bad cases they leave webs all over the plants. They might be some other type of mite though.

Good luck with them though, pests are always a hassle. Found two horn worms on the tomatoes this week, one had eaten half of a fairly large tomato. Kind of amazing considering the relative sizes.

 

[stc3248]

Definitely not spider mites. You usually need a magnifying glass to see them and they'd be on the underside of the leaves as mentioned. Did they have wings? They look like fungus gnats. Did you notice any worm-like larvae in the soil when you washed the roots? Give those dudes a shady spot for a few days and hopefully they perk back up. I would also add a thick layer of peat moss to the surface of those two pots which will help prevent another infestation. Were those plants in Kellogg soil to begin with? I had terrible gnat problems with that stuff.

FYI my Goccia D'Oro is over 4ft tall and finally podding up. Its the second largest plant in the before and after tea pics I did on my glog. The Large Yellow 7 pot I gave you is really kicking though! As is the Manzano I'm sure!

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

Don't remember. Only one in moisture control was the Carib. Manzano is well 1 pod. I think it's due to moving from 3 to 5#. But kicking. Only other problems I have are leaf miners. Barely any aphids and a spot or two of scales. Theyre shaded and I'll add peat moss to it tonight.

Denniz

Will keep you updated on the sickly.

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

was checking out why there was a leaf on the seedling... found out that another had germed on the side...

aerokit outside already hardened.. just need to add water to keep the plugs moist

the plants arent the only thing getting bigger...

my 3rd ripening pepper... yellow mushroom...

yellow 7 large podding up...scared to move it to a 5#...

put 3 of the red bhuts i got at the nursery 2 weeks ago in a 35# container..

Philippine mango.. these are best when sour.....

my girls harvesting the tomatoes

Fresno... mystery pepper...bulgarian carrot...japanese cuke.. persian cuke (thicker than the normal ones i buy)..jasper tomatoes.. yellow cherry tomatoes and some green beans...

wife decided to help me do a review of the bulgarian carrot.. some said its less heat than jalapeno..while some have it listed as hab heat...

sorry about the sideway video...started the recording vertical...

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

[Pinoy83]

Nice root mass,

 

[stc3248]

Nice! How are the sick ones? They bouncing back?

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

Bishops is back on it's feet. Then again it had little leaves and no pods. So easy to recover. The goccio still looks the same and the Trinidad perfume not as good as well

Let's see how this makes my plants happy.

Slowly Hardening the graduates. indoors for now.

 

[SocalChilehead]

Hey Dennis plants look great hopefully the other start picking up on the recovery process. Great root mass that they develop in the aero system. Looks like your ready for some tea brewing. The plants are going to love that combination.

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

At long last. One of two eggs have hatched. Tons of praying mantis babies. Ear my child eat
And of all plants. It decides to be on Shane's 7pot large...protect them pods

Trinidad scorpion from the arboretum

Not really yellow mushroom. It was this color from start of the ripening stage

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

Wife takes a bite into orange Thai chili

I'm starting to like this pepper reviewing.

Thanks Pinoy

Was really good on ribs.

DIY aero starter kit ---sowed 5/31

Both sowed in soil 5/31. One kept in soil (right). And left transplanted in aero once coty popped out

Wish my plants would grow like this outside the aero

 

[Jamison]

Nice pics man! Things are looking nice over at your place!

 

[KiNGDeNNiZ]

Getting there. When I make. Tea this weekend hope they catch up to y'all. Shoot. Only 2/50plants are shooting pods like no other.
