Looking great chris, seen the 4x8 bed on fb. Are you going to plant the chinense as thick or spacing them out more? I ended up doing 3 rows of 7 for my superhots in a 4x8 bed. Thinking I may of crowded them a lil

A bunch .... 38 total are going in 3 * 20 tomorrow then the rest in another area.

Alright Chris... in-ground finally! I'll bet it's a relief to get them out of the house, eh? Pods already formed is a bonus! Keep on truckin' man!

Hopefully I can start updating more soon...won't be long before there are fresh Thai's!

Thanks for dropping by...it is actually sand as the top layer to keep fungal gnats away. I have not had a single issues since I started topping with sand.

Good to know about the sand. I had issues this year in the germination station. Tried cinnamon with no luck at all. Tried H2O2, which helped, but didn't eliminate the problem. Finally put pieces of mosquito dunk (Bt) in the water and that knocked them out.

Yep dunks work but I have found with sand I never have them to worry about...adults cannot lay eggs

LOL hes in jail

Hopefully it grows true since it is F4 and this will be 100% isolated

I'll probably remove the cage after I get a bunch of set pods and mark them and get the cage onto some other plants.

Nice isolation setup Chris... what did you make it from?

I do not recall the last day we had with no wind, therefore I have not broken out the nice camera for MACRO stuff. Once the damn wind gives up I hope to start documenting a flower from each plant as well as pods.

Nice coloration and variegation on those.

Maybe you said somewhere upthread, in which case I missed it, but what make and model of camera will you use for the macro shots?

I shoot with a Canon 7D for all my fancy food and pod shots. Not a new body but the lens is what really matters. For MACRO I have 100MM Canon glass

I fill like such an ass for some reason when I'm trying to take pictures of my plants. Got neighbors behind me that are always watching me work in the back yard. Give me the fcking creeps. I have the same lens but my body is a T2i. I need to send it in to get cleaned though. I got dust inside the body I think
