Saudijoes hydroponic chili season 2009

[CyberDog]

Mine is already in soil. So no luck with that. I'll probably try again at later time when I have to chance to bigger pots. How it can be nitrogen overdose if I only used Levavit at recomended (form the box) way?

Someone talked about a typo or something on some passive hydro fert instructions... I always applied just a little with a spoon, no prob so far.. always easier to add more than overfertilize which can cause a stunting with the growth for a long time!

I quess chilis tend to like it less with this stuff as well. I also believe that the airpump made the water move which might have accelerated dissolving of the levantit. After all these problems only occured in my bubblers.

Today Jalapeno started to bloom

[Fatalii]

Seems like you're getting some fresh Jals soon

Just remember, they might be a little hotter than you expect, especially when grown outdoors!
Black Jals (darkened by the sun) will nearly kill you!

Good stuff to give to your friends... "it's just a Jalapeno"...

That's true. My Jalapeño pods were blackened by the sun in GH during last summer and I can tell you those were killer hot Jals indeed. Very tasty with nasty burn...

Sounds tasty, lee. Can you do that in an oven?

[lee]

yeah, off course.

Simple recipe.

Slice Jalapeños in half, remove seeds

Fill with cheddar and wrap with bacon. Put them in a fridge for 1 hour and then in oven at approx. 200 degrees C

You see when there done.. Eat and enjoy

You can make a meat stuffing mixed with cheese etc.. whatever you like!

Today i tested the recipe. Tasted very good even thou i didnt have any jalapenos. I cheated and bouhgt Red Serenades from a grocery store nearby. I also skipped the fridge part and didn't  precook the bacon either.

[lee]

The main thing is that it taste's good

31.5.2009

This was the day i've been waiting for. Finally the weather is warm enouhg for moving the chilis outdoors on the balcony. I changed the waters and fertilizers for all of the chilis.

As you can see, theres all shapes and sizes. all seeds sown on the same day.. The big wide one in the middle is Bhut Jolokia.


Bolivian Rainbow is in bloom

And its pod


Numex Twilight has some pods as well. Half Yellow, half purple


Aji Cristal has reached heigth of 1 meter. It seems very slender and i wonder if the branches have any capasity for the pods at all. Also the leaves tend to curl up


Bhut Jolokia seems healthy and is nearly 1 meter wide

[Pavlak]

Bhut is AWSOME!

[Fatalii]

Saudijoe, don't worry about the Cristal... when it's sunny for a little while, it will explode.

[talas]

Saudijoe fantastic set of plants you have there and some real beauty's in terms of health and condition,Well done buddy 

[Saudijoe]

Saudijoe, don't worry about the Cristal... when it's sunny for a little while, it will explode.

Good to hear. I thought i might have spoiled the crops by cutting the plant few months ago.
