Got a pepper growing and about to get this plant to my FIL this weekend. Lesson learned. Use nutrients after a month.

Lesson learned. You can feed the plant just straight water through the EZ plug pyramid for about 1-2 months. After that you need to really add nutrient solution to it. But at least we got one pepper. Will be giving this my FIL when he comes back into town. And then getting started on my next grow.

Finally finished my first grow in a long time on the side of her. Now I’m able to give this one nutrients. (I know it’s only been 2 months, only been giving her water) I ended up using the same nutes from the previous grow in just diluted it as much as I can. As far as I can tell, the flowers were falling off, but now we have one pepper that just came in. Hopefully it can fruit some more and continue to provide many peppers.

The plant is starting to have flowers throughout? But not sure where the peppers grow from? The flower itself or from another part of the plant after the flowers fall off? I will need to do some research in what to expect but the plant has been doing good. It’s only been fed RO water. No nutrients yet. Will try and do that once I finish the grow next to it in the upcoming weeks

The flowers started to sprout in bloom of roughly around a week or two ago, and I have only been feeding it just reverse osmosis water, so I think the easy pyramid plug actually has enough nutrients to feed it, because the leaves still seem to be green and not losing any color or lightening up

Only been using RO water on the block for the last 63 days. And somewhat concerned about the purple of the stems but the leafs are looking good. Will continue to monitor. You can see flower sprout are popping up all around.

So far I’m watering RO water just to see if the block itself can actually help give it the nutrients it needs. I’ll feed it once I start my new grow next month

Decided to keep this one since my father in law is out of state for a minute and gave the other one to my dad. When potted outside it seems to thrive a lot quicker we’ll see how it turns out

Transplanted the bigger pepper plant onto its pyramid today. While the other one will still stay in the humidifier and will be dropped off to a family member today. **note to self** when watering the pyramids for the first time, it is essential to water slowly so that the block can actually absorb the water and spread throughout. Otherwise it’s going to appear to be hydrophobic.

I’m doing some LST on the stems and noticed that they’re getting bigger and stronger and the leaves are actually in a sense doing something like a sit up to reach the light into extend their leaves even more it looks great. The bigger one will be going to my father-in-law, and the smaller one in the foreground will be going towards my dad who loves peppers as well so we will see how everything goes

Still growing slowly. Determining what im going to do with them. 1 is going to my father and the other 2 to my father in law. I will prob wait until 40 days once it’s established to give them away
