Weekly update on my Chilli peppers. The issue with the flowering is already known... maybe.

Sadly, but there are still no flowering. The buds tend to dry when they develop. I think the issue is overfertilizing. Nitrogen may burn them, so I stopped giving them fertilizer. The guy in the gardeners’ shop told me to give them fertilizer once per 2 or 3 weeks. But the peppers are in pots, so I guess it’s too much for them. We’ll see what will happen now.

Hydroponics reaper has developed a great amount of roots. Soon will be pruned, but there is some time till it gains some more size.

One of the plants look like a Christmas star!

A lot of leaves developed in a very beautiful shape and very evenly throughout the plant.

This is the plant that was used to have buds already... but we will wait some more time.

The little hydroponic reaper and scorpion grew their roots to the bottom of the little pots.
I’m happy to see them develop very nicely and grow big.

That’s for now. See ya next week!

Awesome !

These plants seem a little young yet to be developing peppers... if they are kept indoors are you pollinating with a paintbrush or other method?

How to pollinate something, that doesn’t have flowers yet? Hehe! I will take care as soon as the flowers develop. Of course will help them. First I need to find a way to make them bloom, and not leave buds to dry.
Thanks for the response!

They look great otherwise, good luck!
