Need to hire someone? I can water plants and will work for food - of the pepper variety. Bit too much of a commute though.

What size pots do you sell your peppers in AJ?

three inch square containers unless they get too big then they go in 6" round containers...of course the price is jacked up too...

How will you ever be able to say good bye to them when they find new homes?

it's easy...I am only selling the plants I have culled and will not grow myself...besides, I'm not cheap but I can be bought....

Holy capsaisin Batman, that is a lot of plants. I have just a fraction of your plants and it still takes all my free time. I hope to be able to start moving to 5 gallon containers within the next week also. Right now has to be more most labor intensive time of the year watering all the little guys.

agree on the labor intensive time of the year...however, the 5-6 hours a day of caretaking has already started...I wish my retirement would come on and get here...I got too much gardening to do to be bothered with work...

Looks like the "sea of tranquility" for AJ and his peeps!

Very impressive.

AJ,

I'm surprised you have not set up a watering system yet. One that uses 1/2" PVC piping, the 360 degree spray nozzles (or 180 for the sides) that are popular with aeration hydro growers and a small water pump. You could water all your plants by flipping a switch and then drinking a beer or ten until they are wet.

AJ, those plants look so beautifully healthy and thick stemmed, its amazing and all you are using is fluoro lighting. PRF, this is what your plants would look like if you were using fluoros too.

Thanks Dale...

Shhhhhh...Don't tell anyone but most of these plants have been in the greenhouse for a couple of weeks... :lol:

Pepper Ridge Farm · Mar 19, 2009

The defense calls no more witnesses and rests it's case. Dale of course I start my seedlings under the one shop light I have. I am convinced that a MH gives better results than any floro or CFL. My plants grow in 10 days what may take a month under a floro. Sunlight beats all.

AlabamaJack · Mar 19, 2009

PRF...how many comparison fataliis do you have...I have 16 and can test different conditions with a few of them...recommendations as to different treatment(s)?
