Got bored with the heat and decided to start some stuff to overwinter or grow under the lights to see if I can manage to get them to set some peppers before winter sets in which I doubt.

Today's haul.
These are the first peppers I've grown to have such strong internodal branching at this size. Definitely going to be bushey. Peri Peri Chubby.
Well, I guessed right. Probably about 1,000 flowers on this one plant right now. Peri Peri Chubby.
Here's another one after I have already picked it bare twice so far this year.
Some experiments.
Update on the winter hydro starts. Going to have to move them to their DWC garage homes soon.
Procrastinated a week. Crazy Sept 21 to Sept 28 growth.
Saving some seeds for the seed train.
Finally moved them to the garage.
Nice! Is this your first time growing using DWC? I like the setup you have going.
No, I have done DWC a few times over the years. It's only really practical for a few plants for me, and takes a lot of effort and time that I don't have a very good supply of. That's why I am just using it for the winter indoors. If winter ever comes.
Gator Jigsaw Purple I received from Helfire farms. This thing looks dangerous. Going to grow some.
My outdoor plants are putting out hundreds of peppers and it's still in the 90's here so hopefully they will all have time to ripen.
