Oscars's - grow season 2010

Hello am kinda new to hot peppers i started last year and was hooked stright away!
This year i am using a homemade cutting board, with an 200w CFL.

I also just bought a 400w HPS lamp. We seems to have a veary long winter this year (live in sweden).
So it kinda sucks. Some of the plants are growing veary big in a short time.

My fav so far is CAP 220 i have two of those plants they are growing with rocket speed.
Also the most pretty one is the Pimenta da Neyde.

I gonna upload pics later on today with my setup. Atm am transfering some plants from cutting board to pots. I plan on having Champion,CAP 220,Naga morish,Aju Cristal,Jalapeno Hercules,Inka red drop in 2 ebb flow systems i made, also plan on having 4x10l buckets with air pumps just cant decide for which plants yet ! Prolly some baccum. Any advice?

I also gonna try make a test Just for fun, use some good expensive fertz vs some cheap crap.
And check if its really worth it.

This year gonna be intressting, and prolly take ALOT of time. I already have a work, so its just and fun hobby ;) Last year i had around 25-30 plants.

I will have most one in a greenhouse, but some outside and even inside my house.
When the batterys are loaded in my cam i will upload some cool pictures from the cutting board.

Here is my list of the plants that are growing atm, most have garminted. But some are still in the ground waiting for popup.

Thanks, no the seeds havent showed up yet. How long ago did you send? I know it normaly takes like 2 weeks for the post to get here from USA.
I Will try update a bit more later on, just transfered my Trinidad Scorpion, Morouga Blend from cuttingborad to 10l bucket.

Tommrow i will transfer the 7pod getting to big for cutting board ;)
 
Ok, an update is in place.

Got no camera atm my bros girl stole it! ;p So i have to wait til shes done with it!

The plants are producing flowers all day long and i pinch them off as fast as i can.

I allow 3 plants to produce pots. Purple purvan, Cayenne golden, and bird eye baby. And one more plant that i dont really know what it is. Was from a "?" seed. No cross at least.
I allow them to flower as i kinda forgot to pinch them off and it already produced some fruits so i dident have heart to take them off!

My HPS lamp exploded kinda (after 300h) so i got a new one from the supplier a 600w lamp. I dont use it, as i got one 400w from a friend in birthday present ;)

So question is Shold i put in the 600w lamp insted? Or is it just waste of watts? its like 1.5x1.5m i use it for.

And i just love HYDRO!! I have 5 DWC in 10 L buckets 1week ago i planted Aji cristali in one of them and now it got massive roots. VEARY cool!

Ohwell will upload some pics asap!

And last, i put down some more seeds in dirt and some in rockwool. But i think i killed 3 more seedlings :( Forgot to water them for 2 days. Trinidad Seasoning and tabasco and one more i cant remeber the name of now.

GRRRRRR i spend like 1-3h a day on the plants and still i forget to do the most simplest thing water some small seedlings.

I cant wait til i can put them all out in the greenhouse i got no room left. And i cant repott the last 30 plants due to space issu. Is this a problem? or will it just stunn the growth til i repott? Or will the plant stop to grow even when i repott it?

Also i asked in the forum if i shold pinch of the buds or not. But i think i will do it until they are in there final pot and been there for 2 weeks. Then i will stop pinching them off.
 
Hi there. I hope you realise that a 600w bulb won't work with a 400w ballast. I don't mean to patronise you if your aware, just a friendly warning.
