I was curious if anyone else has run into this. I have some seedlings that still only have cotyledons out but they are about two weeks old. I have them inside under flourescents which is where I've raised all my other plants during the winter. The greenhouse has a small breeze through it and...

Hello everyone, I have my plants in solo cups in the greenhouse but I lifted up a leaf today and saw tons of aphids. I planned on planting outside this weekend, so would I be better off ordering some ladybugs today and releasing them this weekend inside and give them a week to eat the aphids...

I planted several peppers last year and didn't label well. Here is one of the first that I need help with. It is a Burpee pepper. I took pictures of a few others but the pics didn't turn out well. Anyone know what this is?

My plants are all about 6-8 inches tall and I've kept a fan on them some of the time, but they have some funky shapes in their stems close to the groundline. It's where they've laid down and then sprouted back up. Can I bury them a little deep and cover up the 'L' shape in the next pot or...

Hello, I plan to smoke and then dehydrate some cayennes over the Christmas holidays. Just so that I'm prepared, how many average sized cayennes does it take to make an ounce of powder? I'm getting ready to be disappointed that what I have isn't going to make much. Thanks all.

Hello all, I should be starting a grow log here at some point, but I planted about 30 different types of peppers, mostly from AjiJoe but a few from PepperJoe. I planted 4 of each with the exception of Fatallis and Datils. So far I am at 50% at least from everything, with mostly 75% and 100%...

Hello all, What could I do to keep the squirrels from digging in all of my outdoor containers? I think they're just burying acorns but they're disturbing the roots. Yesterday I dropped mothballs around the containers to see if that works. Anyone got any other ideas? Thanks.

I asked this question the other day in Chat, but was asked for pics, so here goes. These are Bonnie Cayennes and the picture on the label shows some red and some green. These have been on the plant for 6-7 weeks and I am prepared to be patient, but some have started some corking and a few...

How long does everyone pinch the flowers off of your plants? I have some that I've transplanted into 7 gallon containers outside that are about 8 weeks old and roughly about 8 inches tall. I would say that they are definitely too small right now, but when do you quit? Does the stalk need to...

My sweet bananas on a "bonnie" plant look ripe and look like all the pics on the web, but the Bonnie website says that they turn orange and then a pretty red when they're ripe. Is this accurate or a typo? Right now they're a yellow/green color like pepperoncinis.

Does anyone know if any of the books out there on Hot Peppers are worth it? I was looking for something with canning recipes, grinding peppers into rubs, hot sauce recipes, and maybe a little growing help.

Hello, I scanned a couple pages and didn't find an easy answer so I thought I'd just post and get some opinions. I have two 4 foot shop fluorescent lights over my seedlings and both fixtures are full of cool white bulbs. Would the plants benefit much if I swapped one light out for a full...
