planted seeds last night: lemon aji, yellow jalapeno, PPG, Choc Hab.
the lemon aji was the weakest, just barely sprouted. I hope it grows. te yellow jalapeno all had small sprouts, and lot of mold. PPG and Choc hab were the strongest sprouters. long healthy stems, soem even had leaves pking out. they looked perfect. PPG had pruple stems! it looked cool.
Black pearl will be planted next, it has small roots but lots of green mold. i put a selenium cap powder on them last ngiht, its supposed to kill mld. Wiri als o had 1 sprout, very small, and mold which i spt treated with a spray of alcohol. ive been using alcohol the past few days it desnt seem to kill the seed or the mold. maybe the mold stopped growing at least its hard to tell. Need peroxide. the SRP is overtakne with black mold it looks too bad to open.
today: plant BP. put selenium on wiri. Re-use 2 bags to sprout more peps.
|
|
lemon aji has sprouted! 2 plants are popping up, no leaves out yet. PPg and Choc hab are going nuts. getting ready to sprout more peps.
|
|
put to sprout today: choc Shep, variegated piquin, poblano, black pearl. Sprayed with h2o and rinsed. Made the air spicy.
Lemon aji has 6 sprouts now, almost has leaves out nothing in yellow jalapeņo yet. Ghost and choc hab are doing great.
2 oxalis pots have 1 sprout.
Next to do: srp, yellow mushroom, nardello, shishito.
