Looking forward to seeing the Jungle Parrot.
It's on my short list. Anxious to see how tall it really gets.

They look like they won't be "shorty" for much longer! So healthy! How many plants--two, or three? 
Two

Nutes and Mooch added. Peppers are forming and both plants have tons of flowers. I will get some pictures.

SO... how tall is the jungle parrot? Since it is sporting fruit, do you think it is as large as its going to get?
I just started one in a harvest XL.. so if it stays below about 15" or so, I won't have to top it.

I never topped the plant. I never know how or when to. But I will measure it and get back to you.

scarfguy, Both plants are approx 12" I did not top them and I wish I did as they both should be higher. But like I mentioned earlier I never know how or where to do that.

Thanks! I should be fine with the jungle parrot at 12" in a harvest XL (18").

Shawn, isn't topping supposed to make peppers branch out? I think that they grow taller when you leave them alone. Anyway, one thing to try to make plants grow taller is to raise the light to leave more space between the plant and the light.

I am getting so many peppers on these plants. I took pictures but waiting for phone to charge to transfer them.

I htink I was able to get better pictures today. I had to lift the back plant up to be able to see those.
Now I must take pictures of the GAL and right side of the farm. Phone rang so I was only able to get these two.

These pepper plants are amazing me with the amount of peppers. I just can not get a good shot unless I am laying on the floor LOL... The foliage of leave hide them all. I might do a little pruning of leaves but I also do not want to damage the plants.

Great peppers! The biggest drawback of the Farms is that they're on the floor. It does make you put off the pruning and photos! I like your little fan for air circulation.  |
