    Chilli's.

    Chilli's,
    So....who's growing them at the moment?....Anyone?
    I've got a few different varietes growing in my AP GB's.
    Some nice & mild...some a fair bit hotter.







    Cheers,
    Shane.

    Re: Chilli's.

    Shoot your are looking great, mine are yellow and sad.. But I have figured out the problem just not going to do anything until spring about.. The Gravel I used is called marble rock here in Taiwan. Almost like limestone but it isn't but it does keep the PH higher. into the 7.4 range so unless I change it I will be fighting Ph forever and some plants just will not grow well in it. So in the spring I will convert to floating raft made by Goch. That will settle the problem but I will have to buffer the system after.. Then it back to chili's love my chili's
    All system tests are now recorded at http://aquaponics.scorched-revolution.com/ So if you are interested in my system tests. go there

    And here's my sorry contribution to the Chilli chat. What they lack in size, they make up for in clout.

    Picked a few the other night,
    All bar one of the varieties are doing pretty well, they seem to be loving the warmer weather.

    Cheers,
    Shane.

    I'm jealous of you all. I just can't grow any peppers for the life of me. Maybe next year in my heated indoor system.
