>>2810172>>2810179Little update on my chilis this year:
Transplanted the capsicum anuums only today, so they will need some time to catch up.
Everything seems to be growing decently, better than last year for sure.
An interesting thing is the difference in varieties depending on the method, top picture is just paper pots filled with soil at room temperature (non heated room, just ambient temp).
Bottom is usually covered by a plastic hood and partially on a heatmat (the other half I use for seed germination). Both have identical lights over them with 12 h cycles.
Interestingly while the Trinidad scorpions (4th column in greenhouse) seem to profit a lot from the greenhouse method (already growing the first true leaves), the Sugar Rush (4th and 5th column) are getting strangely leggy, to the point where the paper pot ones seem healthier.
Also I really should have lined that wooden tray with a plastic bag before putting all the pots in, it's growing some moldy stuff on the bottom because the wood keeps getting soaked from watering. Well, something to improve upon next year.
The first physalis seeds have also started opening today, so I'm excited to transplant those soon (tm).
