rice555 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Hello All, if your trip overlaps into March 17-19, Horti Asia 2015 will be on in BKK, coir, chem's and GH's all in one spot. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Hello All, started to feed some of the plants 1/2 strength nutes with Scoop1's formula and working fast as I can to get the bags filled for transplanting. New coir being treated for the toms in the bags against the gate. Plants from the last 3 full moons. Some of the toms enjoying a shower. Game called by rain. PS still pissing here in Korat 2:30 AM rice555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Hello All, to give some the idea of what it co$ts to setup a run-to-waste for tom/egg/chile minus the seed,and still figuring on the nutes, what you see in the picture ran about Bt.1,500. Most of this coir is about to start it's third season. Poly bags are Bt.50@Kg. Work was halted by PT appointment at the RTA Hospital, as we were leaving it started to piss sideways and raining hard in downtown Korat. More bags to fill tomorrow. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rice555 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Hello All, half the bags planted and 2/3 of the work to come. Anchos and Anaheim, next, toms and serranos and drip system. rice555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Hello All, things are progressing, hopefully through the weekend and the start of next week I can get the bags moved into place and run my drip irrigation and start to get wires up for the vine clips. The last pic is very young Carolina Reapers. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fapington Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Good work buddy! Can you eat one of those Carolina Reapers? I physically could, but not sure I would, as the follow up pain might be more than I care to bare. I hear that peppers over 1M scoville units actually give you a short "high" as your body releases endorphines to counter the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a hot sauce called "Endorphin Rush", yes you can feel light headed and and try to catch your breath. How's your project going??

Fapington Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I feel really bad for not updating on Youtube. I've been working 12 hour days, so much to do, and I'm working alone. I've got all buckets online, 150 of them with tomatoes in. The other 50 will be filled within 2 weeks, just waiting for them to get to transplant size. The seabass are stocked, been babying them along, will have to grade soon as they are eating each other. lol So much to be done, so little time....you know the drill.

rice555 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Hello All, off to get some 8-L/H PC drippers tomorrow, have the single and quad spaghetti-W-drip stake ready, 500L tank and a pump. Now to look at irrigation timers O/L, one to run programs for hydro and dirt. Scoop1, your formula is working great. One of my Reapers seams to have not made it through transplanting. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop1 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) Hello all. that's good to hear Rice, my Butch T Trinidad and Morugar Scorpions are starting to look very good after the winter chill, { pardon the pun } Fapington's had a few minor issues will "settling out" but we will sort it out soon, I don't think it is affecting his growth rates though.

rice555 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Hello All, we've been having some WET weather on and off the past 10 days or so and has gave me an excuse to not work hard so thing are behind a little. The chilies seem to need a little more N, but are doing very good, except the rain. Lot of blossom after heavy rain, but the plants need to be taller. Looking for a irrigation controller that I can tweak the schedule on the computer instead of buttons on the controller. Anyways, trying to catch up as usual. rice555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop1 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hi All. don't look like there is too much wrong with those chilli's Rice Cheers Scoop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hello All, update on the chiles, all seams to working out with Scoop1's nutes and time to starting add the potassium sulphate to the mix. New tool for doing nutes, can weigh my cal nitrate out in one shot, this is right out of the box, not leveled or calibrated, 2000 X .01, wall wort and 2- 500gr cal weights and directions in Chinese. FedX'ed from HK, had to pay Bt. 150. for duty. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Hello All, first transplanting of chilies and started to get the new coir for the toms ready, running late yesterday and didn't get my toms transplanted, had a big thunder storm and light show early last night with a few drops, then it started to rain for a few hours. Power got zapped and off for 3 hours. But over all, from checking today, not many blossom were knocked off or plants broken. Some pic's of what's going on. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rice555 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hello All, starting to get my first serrano's to the table, and anchos are coming along. I didn't notice the hole in the ancho till I was resizing the pic. One less rellno, fork!! Scoop1, the nutes are working fine, I just need to get my irrigation timing worked out. rice555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Hello All, Scoop1, very happy with your formula! Got my digital timer, so now the plants will get fead on time which is part of the reason that the fruit lack uniformity, which is lacking. Have less plants than last year, but the output is larger than last year growing the same verities. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rice555 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Hello All, thanks Fapington, I saw your last U-Tube on your tom's, very impressive! The plants have grown a bit, and am starting to get better production. The few days of rain last week here zapped a few anchos and anaheims. Here are some of the chilies now, and the Carolina Reapers are slowly coming a long, a few went tits up. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fapington Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Are you growing any tomatoes this year Rice? Or have you gone 100% peppers!!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Are you growing any tomatoes this year Rice? Or have you gone 100% peppers!!?!? I just transplanted what I had yesterday, over a month when they should have been, but thats another story. I still have to shuffle plants around so the Ind.tom have a place to grow. I bought and treated more coir and will be filling bags, have more chilies to transplant. One of the Anaheim's I'm growing I only knew as Anaheim 118 Hyb., I found the seed breeder and have been drooling over another one of their Anaheim's for several years and could only find at a Co. that only sells E. of the Mississippi and I'm W. Coast address, and they didn't answer my @'s, will call this time, there in CA, but here's the plant from their add(growing in CA dirt and weather). rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rice555 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Hello All, Happy Holidays to All! Still plodding along, one forwards, two back. Some pic's of what's going on and some plant changes, Anaheim's are coming out and more ancho's being transplanted over the next few days. Anaheim's are less weight to the anchos, most of the pics are the past 2 days. The ancho in the pic is a cull, went to the wife's chili-fish shit sauce. Culling to get more fruit set and better fruit'$. Serranos are doing great, the plants pictured have been picked twice in the last 10 days. The last 2 pic are the Carolina Reapers that are really growing, love to look at them. rice555 Serrano, last pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Hello All, anaheim's are out, starting ancho transplanting. More chilis from the plants I took out. Anaheim's size in relation to last years P's, or as my favorite radio station slogan "Thin is in, but fat's where it's at"(KFAT, now KPIG). rice555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hello All, more pic's, the seed used in the pics is from 2013, one of todays pic's is 2014 seed, and they are the ones I just transplanted, so it will be two months before I know how they worked. Anchos and serrano's, the anchos are slowly coming along. On the other hand, the serrano's are going ape shit. About ready to do the 4th picking, have never had the fruit set before like this!! Must be Scoop1's nutes. Sorry about the pic quality, it's my phone. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
