This one plant is drinking more water than my four Orange Hat Tomatoes... I'll take back my earlier statement and give it a trim soon.   |

The leaves are building up some condensation due to how many leaves the bush is getting, so hopefully that won't be an issue in the long run. I've had to deal with this on some on peppers. Best thing I've found is just to keep the leaves thinned out. Remove the older wrinkled leaves and let some air get in there. |

87 days since I started the seeds, 70 days since germination. I've thought about terminating this project quite a few times and I'm still on the fence about it.  |

I'm glad I didn't terminate it, since I think I'm seeing the first signs of flowers! Gave it 1.5ml of CALiMAGic tonight.  if these are not flowers, I might terminate it out of spite |

I think this plant is too tall for a Harvest. It is continuing to grow upwards, and now flowers and leaves are being cooked by the lights. Pollinated flowers are falling off the plant, with signs of being burnt.
I'm not sure what to do. I might end up terminating this plant or throwing it outdoors..

ERR0R1755 , Khang Starr just chops the top of the pepper off when that happens, which forces the pepper to grow more horizontal branches. He also cuts off branches that grow too far out of the light.
You could try that, unless the plant is just too big to be worth it.

I've thought about doing that again, but I'm not sure it would be worth it. I've looked more into this type of pepper and spoken with other people who have grown them, and it's normally a 3'-5' bush. |

Yikes, ERR0R1755! I would probably write that one off as an interesting experiment.
Too bad you can't pot it and put it outdoors. But 3-5 feet is huge!

Ended this tonight. I was going to transplant it, but there was no way that was going to happen:  |

Plant Grown: Jamaican Bird Pepper
Grow Method: AeroGarden Harvest
Time to Germinate: 17 days
Time to First Harvest: N/A
Time to Last Harvest: N/A (ended after 112 days)
Plant Spacing: 1 per Harvest (17% usage)
Final Height: 16 inches
Would I grow these again? Unlikely. If I did grow this again, it would be outdoors or in a very large DWC setup.
Lessons Learned: Check the height. Check the height.
