It's always a pleasure to look at your pictures Lee! Your plants really look good! I wish all mine could look as good! You must be pampering them a lot!

Noticed something today. I must say that I know every detail of all my plants  . How could I've missed that.

Ulupica. The mother of all peppers. Look at the Calyx teeth

How do you fertilize them, Lee?

[lee]

How do you fertilize them, Lee?

Just very simple. I use plagron growmix http://www.hydroleaf.com/hydroponics/plagron/grow/mix/p-2053.html . 2-3 weeks after potting or repotting I give them chillifocus http://www.growthtechnology.com/nute-chillifocus.asp.

Check out this site!!! A lot of information on chilli's there,  http://www.fatalii.net/growing/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=26

Btw, What are you growing?

[Pavlak]

Unfortunately I can't find Chilli Focus in Poland, so I'm using some polish fertilize for peppers.
It's my first season, so I'm a bit scared and anxious.
Now I've got about 50 little plants here :

- 17 Cyklon
- 8 Thai Chili Red Dragon
- 8 Jalapeno Purple
- 9  Cayenne Golden
- 5 Habanero Orange
- 3 Hungarian Hot Wax

Now plants have 4-5 weeks, 1 week ago I've repoted them to 5x5x6 pots. And They're in soil.
When really warm sunne weather come in may, I'll repot to 2L( o13cm x 16cm) proper pots and put them on my balcony.
There's a plenty of room for them, but I'm thinking about building small greenhouse similar to yours......but smaller

My GH is the smallest one on earth . footprint is 1,4mx1,4m.
A tip don't underestimate how big chilli plants can grow  . but on 2 L they won't get that big of course. Anyway good luck

btw: You can order Chillifocus, there are a lot of online sellers

[Pavlak]

2L are too small??? OK, so what do you think about??



OK, I found. You're potting to 4,5 L. Hmm quite big. What's the diameter?

4,5 Liter is quite small for chilli's  Most of the plants I have on 4,5 L will get a final repot to 10+ Liter
My pots are square 16x16x20cm.

[lee]

Most of the plants will spend there first night outside

C.Lanceolatum



C. Rhomboideum

[Pavlak]

How old are they? 6 weeks
Men, it's sick, you're an alien 

[lee]

repotted some plants to 11 Liter cotainers





Pimenta Da Neyde


Aji Cristal with small peppers

[lee]

I've put 2 Rhoms on 11 Liter(3 gallon) containers.

[Pavlak]

what's the day and night temperature if you keep them outside? Much higher in the greenhouse?

[MasaT]

Do you thing that 11 liter is final pot for rhombe? It grows so fast.

Daytime temps can get pretty high in there. I measured 36 degrees C with 22-23C outside. I will cut some holes in the "roof" of the GH to get some proper ventilation.

Hmm, dont know but I hope so. But I have a 20 Liter for them just in case. What size do you think is best?

Hmm. Maybe 11 liter is enough. I thing i but mine in 10 liter pot.  Who knows, but it is nice to have berries also. Maybe is better keep it in 11 litre and try another nutritiens later. I yuse too that chilliefocus. Is there that ionic booster from same producer? What are you thinking about that?
