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
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.

Hi Chaza...sounds like a temperature or light issue...
 
hi guys just an update...
the weather has increased alot here, a couple of my pepper plants have got some growth, they are about 6 inches tall. i have quite a few seedlings that seem to be very slow at developing, i really dont know why, my other peppers are still small, most are about 1..2 inches, so im sticking with it and see what i end up witl... i water them with a seaweed mix in the water everyday.
anyway thats where im at right now...

thanks guys,

I'm not.
You and I were not born with the natural instinct to grow plants.
After 52 years of taking care of plants I believe that the plants have taught me so much. Learning to see the plants & understand just what they need & when.

Eg. This foggy misty am I will foliar feed all the plants with Fish & Seaweed ThermX 70 + a dose of Garden Friendly fungicide.
I hope we do not see the sun for many hours as the food will penetrate the plants leaves & feed them very well. If the sun came out
an hour after you foliar feed the plant it would stop feeding as the moisture dried up. Timing is very important.


Might be loving your plants too much too.
Plants know what to do, all we can do is provide them with soil/water nutrients, water, light however we must not mother them to death.
Since joining THP I have worn out the search feature & have learned so much about Peppers I never knew.
 
Thanks guy
Your right, all I can do is feed them and water them, they know what do, maybe I'm expecting too much... maybe I'm expecting to see the botanical gardens right now.......

At least My spring onions are doing great.


Cheers
