STEVE954 Grow Log

Hello from south florida. This year's grow started just after thanksgiving when sowed several different strains of scotch bonnet. After many attempts, I finally got my hands on some scotch bonnet seeds from the Jamaican Ministry of Agriculture!

Great updates mon! I think your pictures are getting better and love shrimp scampi we do similar, great stuff!!! Keep up dat great work and can’t wait on the pods. Sorry we’ve been unable to catch up, hopefully things will be different this next weekend, take care mon :)

I have to agree with you and Greg on the coffee grounds, but I only spay it when I see pests now and not on a regular basis. I don’t believe it does anything to mites, it does kill off the aphids and other soft body bugs if the mix is strong enough and I love mixing it with dirt. It’s killed off all the ground gnat issues I had going on and the 50/50 mix for starts all finally popped up but not the pure coffee test I did, but it’s still running so time will tell but I doubt that will work. I’m done with my testing of it but certainly using it a lot, love da stuff and we produce enough grounds at home for my uses.

Steve,
Your plants are loading up nicely. No shortage of pollen there. Can't wait to see the pods ripen and to hear your views on the MoA tasting...

Sweet!!! Little ones even budding, gotta love dat FL sun, dem looking awesome and your pictures are seriously getting much better. Excelling work mon & keep dem grow pics a coming ^_^

Did you start your seaweed batch? If you have extra weed, seriously consider unwashed for ground cover on dem ingrounds, I'm noting unexpected growth and lushness from my old girls that I did that to.

Tank you bruddah mon,
I have decided to cover the ground with mulch and use my seaweed as a tea fert. It keeps the weeds away and looks clean.
Your little MoA babies monsters are exploding with growth!
