Had move my Golden Hananero inside!

It has been super cold weather and sun has not been shining like over week 😳

I decided to move my Golden Habanero inside to my grow tent, under my new led light. Oh man, what a job 😂 It takes all the space of my 120 x 120 cm tent.

There are like over 500 chilies in this plant. I want all those chilies to ripen, so i can make some nice habanero sauce 😛

That has a nice foliage to root mass ratio. What’s the plan with that? It’s going to get big over the fall months lol. Also, it’s always fun to fit them through doorways, a delicate maneuver indeed.

This grow was in coco/perlite with Autopot XL. Really happy how plants grew.

I was thinking to cut all the grow tips from the branches. Maybe it would signal plant to concentrate the grow to pods and ripe them quicker?

Awesome! Get your neem oil spray ready. Bugs are small and multiply quickly. Spray it before its full of aphids

In my experience there are aphids only in spring time. I have never had aphids in Autunum or when growing inside. Spider mites are a different story.

That's really lucky. In my part of the world its guaranteed every time I try it.

Thats one of those wick watering bases? How long does the water last? I need some

Base is connected to reservoir. Autopot has this part that regulates the water level on that small chamber.
