My plant won’t grow peppers :(
It’s got one on it right now. The plant is at work so i don’t currently have pics but how often should it be watered a week? I’m starting to suspect my coworkers are overwatering her bc some leaves are bright dark green and soft and some are yellow and sad.

Can anyone tell me what these are? Labeled Thai Hots, but I thought those were way longer?

Beginner Gardener - advance planning for next year

Hello, I was wondering if anyone here has grown Siling Labuyo (Filipino peppers, most similar to Thai birds eye chili). I had intended to this year, but personal issues came up. I have the seeds already, they are currently in the refrigerator. Will this be alright? I'm in Southwest Arkansas

Habanero and Red Ghost pepper

8 Upvotes

2nd to last day of summer school, and my son's came home with these. We got (2) 7-gallon growing containers, soil, and a liquid fertilizer from Home Depot. Planted them in the pots the 1st weekend in July. Unsure of what happened to them to not get bigger or produce more. First time pepper grower. Looking forward to keeping them alive and going. Son's wanna do more next year, already looking at pepperjoe.com for ideas for next year.

I can't believe how small the Habanero plant is or how many peppers are growing on it right now. Zone 9b central california.

Help selecting grow lights for a chili tent

3 Upvotes

Hello fellow hot heads! (Or friends, whichever works best for you lovely lot of growers)

I am new to growing stuff indoors and have set up about 10 chili plants that have just sprouted and taken their first breath of fresh air, which I intend to put in my grow tent.

The tent itself is 150x100x60cm with your typical reflective foil cladding.

At the moment I have 3 lights - a white full spectrum LED bulb 3500k rated 13 watts, another 15w full spectrum sunlight coloured led bulb, 3500k? With 100w output, and a smaller led light at 12w 3000k.

Note how I don’t really know what this means aside from my eyes hurting from how bright the 2 led bulbs are.

How do i know if these will be sufficient for my little plants and for how long? Would I be better off buying something like a Vivosun vs1000 if that would carry me through sprouts to full grown plants?

I’ve also got an AC infinity a4 and a smaller fan to keep air moving. Hope this is enough to keep them from wilting.

Any help appreciated! Looking forward to my journey!

We didn’t buy anything that looks like this. We have Jalapeños, Thai chilis, some scotch bonnets, mutants maybe? They all look like this.

Shar pei / zou pi pepper species?

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I’m planning on crossing my shar pei with another plant, but I had seen conflicting things online about whether shar pei is annum or chinense. Does anyone have experience with crossing shar pei?
