Otsikko: Peppers indoors with LEDs experiment
Kirjoitti: zenit - marraskuu 24, 2009, 09:35:27 AP
I am a new grower and decided to grow peppers with LEDs indoors this winter (crazy idea eh).
I started them off under a flourescent and moved under LEDs when they had a couple of real leaves.
The grow light is cheapo Chinese UFO from ebay tri-spectrum (red blue white).

Here are my results if anybody is interested. THe pictures taken about a week or so appart. I might have skipped a week somewhere. Some peppers died due to too much fertilizer and I added a bunch since i started the growing. The Manzano that grew big had to be downgraded to windowsill today because it started growing over smaller plants. Hopefully it does well there.

big manzano in question: already a ton of flower buds forming.
Hope it continues to grow rapidly on the south facing window with my other mystery pepper (can anybody identify it?).

here is a close-up of LED grown "ebay" naga morrich and other plants under regular light. How do they look to you more experienced pepper growers?

C. Chacoense growing super tall and forming first flower bud. Problem is that due to super growth rate its going to hit the grow lamp soon. Might have to take this one to my office or something.
