Happy New Year!
Still deliberating over my ‘final’ list as per usual! It will be 'more of the same' with some small tweaks here and there, and no radical changes in approach from me. I feel I’m close to optimum in terms of squeezing the maximum potential out of my small greenhouse space (8’ x 6’).
Here's my current thinking on the line-up and GH layout, likely to change a bit;
The game is now afoot! Early sowings in my trusty Garland Fab 4 on New year’s Day;
My Crosses
Aji Bodysnatcher F3
Yorkshire Barghest F1 (I only have 2 seed, fingers crossed!)
Competition
Scotch Bonnet MOA (http://thehotpepper.com/topic/62887-land-of-the-giants-2017-biggest-bonnet-competition/)
Aji Lemon Drop (http://thehotpepper.com/topic/63073-growdown-throwdown-2017-aji-lemon-drop/page-1)
Pubescens
Rio Huallaga Rocoto
Also, my 6 year old Trindad Scorpion CARDI Yellow has finally begun to sprout after the usual hard root and branch cutback, great to see new leaves unfurling from his mighty old trunk... come on old boy, you can do it! 8)
I’m having a major extension on the house this year in spring, so hoping that my grow won't suffer too much.
Wishing all my friends at THP a bountiful 2017.
Cheers,
Dennis

I've had to clean all the affected res's and wicks and am crossing my fingers I've somehow contained it at this point. I think it is iron bacteria present in the soil which is causing rust like deposits, rusty mold like growth blooming on the wicks and res walls and slime clumps in the res water... the stuff of nightmares! Any ideas on what this is and how to tackle it would be greatly appreciated?!
