False alarm

The first sprout is still by its lonesome - but it is not pepper! It is a cucumber seedling from a seed that must have been left in the potting mix.

Scorpion

Now plan to use Scorpion in cascade. The 7pod in Mayaro appear to be suffering from Mosaic virus.

First sprout

The first sprout has appeared in one of the seedling trays - on its own for now but expect more soon.

Fungicide

Applied some Kocide on Saturday at a concentration of 2.5g / 500ml water in the spray bottle - each tray got about 220 ml. Hope that this controls any fungus issues.

Seeds set

I set two crates of the 7pod seeds between 18th - 19th. I used seeds from the peppers behind the booth in Mayaro - universally reported as excrutiatingly hot. I noticed some fungal growth in the potting mix that had stayed in the container.

First post

Planning to plant the hill at Samaan Rd with peppers and maybe tomatoes. This blog will record all relevant activities.
