The other day I stopped by the local Grange Co Op and saw that they had ghost pepper plants for sale. This was a first for the Grange in my area. Anyway, I noticed that the plants looked extremely healthy, so I bought a couple for $1.49 each. Hard to beat that price! (I'll probably need a few more...) When I got the plants home, and re-potted them to 1 gallon pots, I noticed they had massive root systems for such small plants, and were completely root bound. This got me to thinking what large scale nursery operations use as far as soil mixes, and, nutes. The soil mix that these ghost pepper plants were in looked like plain old peat moss with some perlite. But, I really wonder what nutes they use to get such massive root systems.
Anybody have any insight into large scale operations like the one below? What do they use for soil mix, and nutes?
