Hi Ray, This is really random for this video but I was looking at your “Grand Tour! Look Whats Growing” and I was wondering what lights you use and where you get them. Thanks, bye

Freezing the seeds causes them to go almost totally dormant which allows you to save them for extreme lengths of time. That’s the thinking behind freezing seeds. I just toss mine in a ziplock baggie and store them in my basement which is cool and dry.

This home is on 2/3 of an acre in a tiny roadside townish type area with a few dozen homes. No businesses. The home is cozy and has great character, excellent layout for growing plants indoors, two wells along with rural “city” water and chickens are allowed. It’s perfect for me. 🙂

I wouldn’t mix treatments. I think it may be better to just have separate sprays. That’s just my opinion though.

A lot of the vanilla production is done in cocoa plantations having them grow up the cocoa trees…

Those are Greek Pepperoncini I gave so many away last fall. My opinion they are sweeter and have a more full pepper taste and has that little bite that tingles but doesnt give the chile burn.

Ray, Love your garden and videos. Will you tell more about your new property/home? It was fun looking at house 1, 2, 3. Where did you end up?

It has nothing to do with ventillation. It has to do with humidity.

Those Pepper Leaf Oedema i had last year also and i heard it is because of to much fertilizer that let the plant pump up too much water in the leaves and maybe a to bad ventilation, so the plant can’t “sweat out” the water properly. But less water is always good for chili, so it might help also. 🙂

orchids are, for the most part, very easy. They like to be left alone 🙂 Over watering is the main cause of most orchid deaths…. the other main cause is….. under watering lol I have had some that smell exactly like chocolate — so when they are in bloom, and there are alot of them at one time, the entire house smells like chocolate. I think at blooming time I gain 15 lbs just from breathing lol I had a “grow operation” (sshhhhh!) in my garage.

Your video couldn’t have come at a better time, the peppers I’m starting inside have Oedema, I did and do spray my indoor plants from time to time with neem and it didn’t seem to hurt them. Trying to grow some “ancient sweets” seeds I saved from some peppers I bought at the supermarket that were delicious, hoping they breed true, so far so good with the plants I started in December.
