Thats quite the grow list my friend. I use photobucket.com to post pics on here. I upload my pics there, then i use the html link from that pic on that site to post here on this forum. Its not that difficult. I agree this site aint the best for networking with other folks. But there is still alot of good people on here who are willing to answer questions and help out the best they can using this forum. You can check out thehotpepper.com if you want a more user friendly forum with more networking options, its geared more directly to the hot pepper lover as this garden web covers the whole range of gardening. Good luck with your grow this year! And keep us updated! Jim

I grew some congo black and jamaican chocolate this year in the field along with several other capsicum chinense varieties. I use a small amount of organic fertilizer that is made from poultry litter and some bone meal. All chinense varieties need additional calcium especially if you see the leaves curling. I only add fertilizer when transplanting and side dress again late summer. We recently had over a foot of rain then blistering heat so I will side dress the plants again since they were so stressed. I had to harvest all of the chilies before they rotted from the excessive rain and flooding.

philipperv Hi Scott, i understand your concern about unscrupulous people wanting to trade seeds but not sending seeds in return. To tell you the truth, i find it a bit offenssive that you would question my integrity without waiting to see whether you received the seeds or not. My friend, Chris - "cmpman1974", has been a member of this forum for longer than me. We are also both members of the chillisgalore.co.uk. He lives in Sterling Heights, MI. I have traded with him, over 100 seeds, and hand no problems. Anyone who feels concerend please feel free to ask Chris about me or visit the chillisgalore forum and see my various threads, but specifically see my thread for my naga seeds. My member name is also "NagaMa" on that forum. Thanks Raj

Hey all! 14 Days at this point. They're growing pretty nicely. Most of them are at 1" and are setting their first true leaves. Some are getting a bit leggy and I am thinking about stripping the grow house of its cover and move it somewhere with more light. Unfortunately my patio is in a SW corner and no exposed area for sun until late afternoon. The mold (White and Green) was promptly dealt with by using some hydro peroxide. It eliminated the fungus almost instantly and made 90% new sprouts over night over the ones sprayed. If anybody has some suggestions it would be extremely appreciated. I used to have great luck growing in the garden but this year everything died. I would like to make up for it in nice thick strong growth. So suggestions would be great. Scoville: I agree. I am using it because I donÂt want to put those Jiffy growers all over. Come fall I am planning on growing some Broccoli, Corn, Cucumbers, Green onions/scallions, Onions, Potatoes, and Pumpkins. They will grow in the ground. I am adding all new soil and putting on a cover and using drip irrigation. Captaineo: Hahaha! Your pictures look fine. I am also using a phone. It doesnÂt matter; indoors or out those aphids find their way. Brutal evictions are ok in my book. Everything is looking real good! I am trying to get my brother who lives in chilly Sweden to do some indoor growing. Which one is your favorite of the peppers? YouÂre growing? Great pics! If there is some dramatic change IÂll post new pictures. Thanks again! /Fred .
