UPDATE!

I just realized that I hadn't updated here in a while!A lot has happened here at the 'chilifarm', among the most important is the lightinstallation, which has improved plant lifequality greatly :D20 species from the fatalii.net seeds have germinated properly and only four remains; Locato, CAP 220, Aji Limo and Starfish.
Oldest plants are almost 6weeks now and youngest 21days

chilis have a new home

Finally my little buildingproject is finished and the chilis are now living in their new home - the closet :D
Here there will be no goddamned cats nor kids to disturb, and the temperature is a lot better.

artificial lights added

1x Philips new generation 30w/827 (warmwhite),
1x Philips new generation 30w840 (coldwhite),
2x sylvania aquastar 174 (blue growlight)

more growth!

Bam!
Now there are five germinated seeds that sprouted the soil;
Short Yellow Tabasco,
Inca Berry,
Lemon Drop,
C05482 and
PI 260560.

I tried some pots today with my on onionbasket to see if I had a match and bingo - instant win.
In the combination of a black 12L bucket the combination means that there's a 3L waterreservoir left at the bottom - which I think is perfect!

Short Yellow Tabasco #2

Germination!
It has begun. On the 6th day I saw this little baby pulling through.
It is a great feeling to see life beginning here and I can now start dreaming of large crops and tasty chili stews and sadwiches *drool*

update :)

My first batch of assorted "carribean chilis" is growing very well and the second and third leafpairs are starting to show on every plant. Sizes are varying from about 4-7cm and the first leafpairs are getting quite large :)

I got my second batch planted the 26th of February in my plugbox so finally the season is really beginning.

I also found a new item that might be the solution to my project with the self-watering pots. It's an "onionbasket" that will serve as the layer between soil and watertank
