It is now wednesday just over midnight 28 days after sowing the plant so this is the last day of week 3 of vegetation. I have never seen such growth so soon in the season. I am growing under lamps now. I made a "setup" for easter, just lamsps I had in my house, and when I came back my plant had grown. Now I have a hanging setup in my window, and a timer. When the weather is favourable the plants go outside, when the sky is grey, they hang under their lamps. Sowing direcdtly in a 12 liter bucket seems to be rewarded. Plant can continue growing in the bucket undisturbed. Meanwhile I seam to be learning to grow indoors with lamps. I love it! Nothing better than watching a plant grow under artificial light after a bike ride on a very dark and cold day in April The setup is hanging in my living room and I can watch my plant while writing this.
I have decided to grow peppers after discovering that weed plants grow under lamps. Bought two little very hot surinam pepper plants and put them in a bucket and hung them in my window with laqmps above them. Those are visible to people passing by, My window is visible from the street, (but my weedplants are hidden)
I must say that I love the bright light in my living room, so I am going to grow surinam peppers next winter as houseplants.
Plant is growing very well under lamps and when available, the sun. The shape of the leaves is different from previous Frisian Dew, the fingers are broader. Does this mean that this one is more Indica?
@DutchPassion_Official,Thanks for your reaction, you do care for your babies 😉 Don't worry, when I had to leave the seedling alone, I covered the soil with a layer of sand, to reduce evaporation. I have a poking hole just above the bottom of the bucket to check moisture.
@Grow4Releaf,The top leaves are still green, the lower leaves are becoming yellow. Would it mean that the cuttings are sacrificing those leaves for the nutrients necessary for making roots?
@WatercanWampa,Thanks! That is allso a bit of perspective, because my shoes are further away from the phone than the leaves, but still, they are bigger than my hands. Because I want my plant to grow high, I pruned all sidebranches this morning, (I am trying to make clones) now all the nutrients and water go to one single growing tip, so she will probably make even bigger ones. She is allso standing in the ground for a week spreading her roots.
