Well, its just about DWC in general... I read a post saying that in DWC you are not supposed to use full strength nutes at all because the roots are constantly sitting in the soultion and would burn them up. Since i believe you are the DWC master , what is your word on this?

I run full strength nutes once I start veg. I may at times cut some of the liquid karma. and I find it important to top off with fresh ph'd water, in order to give the plants a chance to use available stored nutes as well.

I want to grow some strawberries indoors in soil, and I've been doing lots of reading. It appears they are photoperiod dependent on flowering as well. I think the day-neutral strawberries look like the best candidate for indoor since they bear fruit the whole season outdoor (like spring through fall) instead of one harvest in june. Any input? Every where I find only really has info about growing already live plants, not much info about starting from seed. Where would I even find seeds that are good for growing, would ones from store bought fruit work, kinda like pot bag seed?

Well, after reading through this and forgetting most of it cause of how HIgh i am, i decided to grow peppers too since I have a perfect closet for it. I went out and got 4 100watt (23watt 1600 lumens, the warm ones but fuck it they work, look at my other grow lol) cfls. They were on sale in a 4 pack for $9.85 or a 2 pack for $8.85 I was originally gonna buy the 150 watt (42 watt 2700 lumen) one for $9.85. Being stoned makes me such a great bargain shopper lol. 6,400 - 2,700 = 3,700 more lumens for the same price :dance:

I went out and bought 3 packs of seeds: 2 varieties of jalapeno & 1 long red cayenne. Feed stores are a great place for seeds when its not the season, btw. They have EVERYTHING year round. Only cost like 3 bucks. The old man at the counter was curious why I am growing peppers at this time of year. He was hella impressed to find out I was growing them in a closet. He gave me lots of pepper growing tips and we discussed germination methods and told me to come back and tell him how it went. Old people are so cool.

He said to put them in a wet paper towel somewhere warm overnight or a day and then plant them and keep them somewhere warm. I usually germinate my other seeds in the towel until they sprout roots, but on the bag it says these seeds take 14-21 days to germinate, so I'm guessing they might rot in the paper towel or something. Any input on that latewood?

Well I planted some straight in soil (scotts seed starting potting soil), i put 2 in each hole, 4 in a cup just to see which method sprouts faster. I buried them all at different depths too, to see what works best. Being a stoner I forgot to mark which hole was which depth lol. I did remember to mark which cup was which though

Pics - One of my plants in the early stages of flowering and also a little sample from my harvest.
Unfortunately it was an outdoor, 100% organic soil grow.
Not next season though!

Plant : Chilli
Strain : Long Red Cayenne

Hell yeah! Thats the exact strain of cayenne I planted. How long did it take for the seed to sprout and how long was it from germination to harvest?

start your seeds in soil, if you are going to grow in soil, or use peat pellets. they are cheap and work great...be sure to keep your seedlings warm, and if you want fruits then you have to have pollenation, so read up on the different ways to pollenate indoors.

ladybugs and a breeze, but I tell you without assistance to pollenate, yields are low. Good luck

I think i'm gonna just use the paintbrush technique. I don't care much about yield as long as I get a few peppers. This is more of a hobby to pass the time rather than to get lbs of food. In other words I'm not gonna be disappointed if they don't kick ass. I ordered some beautiful peruvian purple chiles that according to the website make great ornamental indoor plants. The foilage and all is purple, with the fruit looking almost black til it matures. My logic was that if they make good ornamental indoor plants under standard indoor lighting, they'll probably do great in my little room. Check em out. Peruvian Purple Chile

cool. Can't wait to see'em
