yeah, bud rot is a bitch here. lost several pounds last year easily.
damn that is insane. i could never imagine getting that much from one plant. i wish i could move to oregon. it was so nice when i was there. and the veggies would also thrive!
everything did great this year except the squash and cucumber garden. didn't get a single butternut squash or cantaloupe, managed 4 decent pumpkins off of 9 pumpkin plants, a smattering of cucumbers and, as always, way too much zucchini squash.
thank you.
i bet that heat cut a little bit of stretch or is that only indoors
i hope so. not sure where i will be next year. this one is 12 x 24, which leaves 48 sq ft per plant. that was nowhere near enough. i'm thinking a 20x30 GH will do the trick next time, giving them 100 sq ft per plant.
i honestly have no idea. they didn't seem to slow down much, and when the worst part of the heat wave hit, they began flowering.
for the second year in a row, all of my green bell peppers are getting late blight. not a single one of the red bells so far, but i have to keep pulling green ones early if i want to use them.
bight eww, doesnt actinovate get ride of that . . or serenade cease . . .
Only bell I went with was Cajun bell. I went hot this year. Cayenne, king pao hybrid, and some random little red pepper that when ripe look like cherry toms but are hotter than shit. Started my cayenne indoors and have already pulled a ten inch long pepper off of it. Fucking rediculous.
Would the wooden trellis that are used for vines and grape type stuff work?
Yes​.......
Don't be timid.......I feed my potted plants every other day at 100+ degrees with full strength Miracle Grow and they don't burn.....they actually just eat it up. Sometimes I have to feed back to back because they are such whores. Can't wait to see some buds on those ladies.....should be a nice harvest if you can control worms and rot.
