My lunchbox and nothing again in the AG Jalapeno. I am going to plant one of my custom Jalapenos I think as a backup. This is the second kit that was a dud.  |

FINALLY, the AG Jalapenos have germinated. It is about time. I just hope they produce.

So glad it's up!
Every time I am tempted to buy a pod kit, I read the reviews and decide to buy my own seeds. They always grow!

I do not know if it is me or the plants but they are not as healthy looking as I would have hoped. The AG Jalapeno is not strong. The lunchbox is wilty looking. mike , do you think it needs more nutes? I gave it 7ml last feeding. Maybe I need to top it? But it is so short? Thoughts? I can get a closeup if needed.  |

7ml is a bit lean. On Bounties, for peppers, I use 8, 8, 9, 9, 10 for the rest.

My husband is working from home, my puppy wants to play and go out all the time and I am a bit overwhelmed. I will fix that and hopefully they will perk up. |

It's good he can still work. Here in Michigan, we have an over zealous Governor that has extended our shut down again. Her executive order even prevents big box stores from selling seeds and other home improvements. People are getting $500 tickets for taking their motor boats out fishing. People aren't allowed to travel between properties that they own. Sorry, this shut down is making everyone crazy in Michigan.

He is going to open up parks and golf courses but if you are less then 6' and do not have a face covering expect tickets or jail. Mark's company is Essential. They provide service to medical and government along with other places. Especially the Police, 411, Ambulance and Fire. Now within the company there are essential and non-essential. The essential is all of Mark's departments (Support, Installs/Dispatch among other dept). We have mandatory people that musty be in the building and then others like Mark who work from home. They originally wanted him in the office but if he got sick, then they would be up craps creek as he and his people are the heart of the company. If that stopped the company would fall. |

I took some of the lower larger leaves off the Lunchbox. The AG Jalapeno looks a little better and you can also see the Ace I planted by the Lunchbox. IF and only if all survive, I will place the pepper in another machine.  |

They are beautiful!
I ordered a Calmag supplement yesterday. I don't think it was mooch though. Hope it still helps.
I think I should have followed your advice and not topped my Sweet Heats. The foliage is so dense I had to remove a lot of leaves so light could penetrate to the lower branches.
Yours look perfect with no topping.

If you want, replant them. They grow pretty fast.
