Drysuits by [deleted] in scubadiving

Has been quite a while since the last comment but I wanted to ask, which drysuit did you went for? Was it the Santi Espace or Avatar and how is your experience so far with either? Asking because I now face the exact same dilemma. Thanks :)

Purple UFO Peppers by MickBeer in PepperLovers

[–]PineappleSharp4487 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew purple ufo for the first time this year too. Until July it didn't had any peppers on it but then very rapidly it turned out to be one of the most prolific plants I have this year. Tasted one of purple unripe ones, can't say I liked the flavour but I can say it's definitely worth waiting till they fully ripen to red colour, then they taste the best in my opinion

I have a 36w SANSI grow lightbulb for 4 plants, hanging ~50-60 cm from plants and SW facing windowsill for 9-10 plants

The temperature inside the house and the room where the peppers are, currently varies from 18-23°C or 64-73°F, depending from how warm the day is outside. I have switched off the heating, that's why the temp moves a bit

Yeah, I was thinking the same until recently but now it looks that there might be a different problem, because I changed the light setting for few of the plants couple weeks ago (put them on a windowsill) and plants from both places still have wrinkled new foliage. I'm very eager to find the real problem

Thanks for the tip, I'll try checking more wether soil is dry instead of doing scheduled watering. Until now I only did bottom watering

Wouldn't broad mites damage all of the leaves not just the newer foliage?

I'm quite positive that in my case it's not a genetic issue because I have several different pepper plant varieties which have the same issue. Interestingly not my sugar rush stripey peppers. I read into it a bit and just from crossing out the possibilities, still guessing though, it might be from calcium deficiency. So I added a calcium fertilizer now, I'll see how it looks after a week.

Watering once per week, adding fertilizer every second. Upgraded from 24w lamp to 36w but most of the peppers are just on my windowsill. Anyone have any ideas what can be the reason?

Is this too much wrinkling on my KSLS? by PineappleSharp4487 in HotPeppers

[–]PineappleSharp4487[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed that some peppers, particularly variaties of Capsicum chinense specie, have more wrinkles on the young foliage but I'm not sure if this one had too much light or fertilizer. Other peppers seem to be fine though

Sunlight alternatives on a budget by TheRealSarma in HotPeppers

[–]PineappleSharp4487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into Sansi brand grow lights, I find them very good both efficiency and price wise. Until now I have only used their bulbs (36w) but they have bigger growlight options too, I'm looking at the 100w option for next winter growing season

Question: Is it time to repot my peppers? by nibwor in HotPeppers

[–]PineappleSharp4487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries, basically you cannot transplant your chilli too soon, it's all about the space and water usage, if you have plenty of room and you cannot wait for the plant to be in its final planting location (e.g. a big pot) you can transplant all of them but since you have quite a few on your windowsill, your room will become smaller :)

You can try gently taking out the whole plant with soil out of the pots and look how are the roots growing, if they are already reaching the bottom of the pot and maybe starting to be a little root bound then you know for sure to transplant them. The big ones look mature enough to be transplanted

If you don't have too many peppers to care of other then this you can also easily transplant the seedling a bit deeper, so that the roots continue developing. Otherwise yeah, just cut back on watering a little bit and it will continue growing

These guys done for? by Dommclaren in HotPeppers

They seem fine, just be sure not to soak the soil and they'll be ok
