hi guys
im really at a loss as to why im experiencing all these issues. i have at the present, sweet pointed pepper, finger chilli, reb bell , yellow bell, aji lemon,, romano. 1 scotch bonnet. out of all these , for me to have all the issues i have seems blooddy bad luck... new compost, bug spray to irradicate bugs, fresg water .... most seedlings are under humidty domes,, yet te rate of growth is such that winter will be here before they get above 3 inches...

im a bit dispondant right now.

Need more info and pictures would really help too. What lights and schedule? Usually I remove the dome and heating mat about 2 days after they pop up. I’m sure they need air flow.

Might be loving your plants too much too.

hi guys
just an update, it seem that when i potted my seedlings, i packedthe soil too tight. ive repotted the seedlings that all seemmto wanting to grow, they all had this bulbous part of te stem that lookedlikeit was bursting to breakout. they are now in a much less packed pot so we'll see how they get on.

cheers chaza

I like buffered coco coir, even if you pack it down it has room and aeration.

Thanks for that.
I bought dome new compost to give them a good start... I am very hopeful after seeing the roots of all of them
Thanks

Are you using the compost in a soil mix?

I like to add HP
High Perlite

 

[chaza]

Not this time, just new compost.

 

[HerbCasa]

I'm not sure if it's good enough drainage.
I don't think Pure compost will drain right.

You might want to make sure you don't choke the roots.
I suggest you add at least some Perlite.

Ok, I'll see how it goes, I dud buy some but it's all in the other compost,,
Well see

Cheers
