Hi.Im new here on this site and have a few questions for you guys.For the last few yrs i have been growing plants in my attic but had to stop for certain reasons and have chosen to grow chillis instead for a while......I have a 250 watt daylight envirolite...200 watt flowering envirolite and a 600 watt hps and ballast that i used to use for flowering....i have fans for pumping air in and for extracting....
The plants i used to grow were vegged on 18 hours of light and when i wanted them to flower i switched them to 12 hrs....do chillis need a certain light cycle to enable them to produce fruit or do they just automatically grow fruit?
What temperatures will i have to stay between to keep my chilli plants happy?
Is humidity a factor?
Are there male and female chilli plants?( the plants i used to grow were either male or female ..the female plants produced what i wanted and the males were culled :-(...poor guys...but everynow and then due to stress or bad genetics the girls used to show male and female characteristics)...do i need male and female chilli plants in order to pollinate to grow fruit?
I have some dorset naga seeds ready to germinate but want to learn a bit before i do..
Thanks in advance
