Day 100
Milestone Day
Our 100th day! Can you believe it!?
As you could probably tell from my last Post, we’re evolving our protocals a little bit. We’re now going to focus on Fruit Production (edible peppers) = Yum!
Up to this point we’ve been observing vegitative production and used equal and appropriate methods to produce the results you’ve seen so far.
Now, it’s going to be all about the Fruit Production or actual Peppers we can eat.
This calls for a slight change in what we feed our Pepper Plants so we’re going to introduce HydroPlex a potassium and phosphorus mix to promote fruit formation.
So as we proceed, we’ll be documenting the Fruit Production that will include; the number Fruits (peppers), Size (weight) and possible Flavor.
I’ve been sampling some of the peppers and they often end up in my morning omelets.
Our E.C. levels are now:
Without HydroRush 0.9 E.C. (baseline)
With HydroRush 1.4 E.C.
