Hi everyone.
It's been almost a year since I planted these 2 ghost pepper plants. One of them only started producing fruit recently. The other ones gave like 8 pods a few months ago and is producing more at the moment too.
My concerns:
1) both plants seem to have a very slow growing pace and the new grow seems to be drying ( ? ), to the point that there are branches without any leaves on them. Overall, I thinks these plants have too few leaves for their size (~1 meter tall).
2) many leaves end up turning yellow-ish/pale. Both plants never left the grow tent (HPS 250W). I'm using autopots and I noticed a few bugs near the water valve. They are white, VERY tiny (1mm or less), and stay on top of the water. If I stop watering they go elsewhere, at least I can't see them on the same spot.
Any ideas why my grow is so slow with, theorically, good temperature/humidity conditions? Should I worry about these white bugs?
Cheers
João
