5 weeks after sowing.
The plants have started to spread their scent 😊
For the second week in a row we had hot temperatures, Temperatures in the greenhouse : (max. 52,5°C - min. 11.8°C).
Plants are still growing very good. They almost doubled in height each week (smallest : 27cm - biggest : 47 cm)
Still only water.
No pests or diseases. Maybe a small problem with one leaf (see last picture, the small white-grey irregular-shaped spots ). I removed the leaf.
If you have any idea what kind of (probably) animal did this, please tell me :)

pic. 2 : smallest plant
pic. 3 : tallest plant
pic. 4 : the affected leaf
4 plants are indica phenotypes (pic.2). They are already making side branches.
9 plants are hybrid-style phenotypes (pic.3), with almost no side branches.
Usually the situation you described will not cause hermaphroditism by itself.It requires a combination of stress factors.If you got them all in time you should be ok though.
@DaGrowQueen, I am very pleased with your comment. I try my best, and it's very nice to hear from other people that they too enjoy my diary, as I do making it. Keep up the good work yourself. Wish you a happy grow !
@CANNASIM, . The greenhouse will be crowded with sweet peppers in some weeks.
These ladies will be placed under HPS light indoor. But with temperatures above 25°C I'll put them outside in the sun.
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, Thx, indeed thrips (googled it, and you're right).
It was the weakest of all plants, and because it was nr.13 (will not fit well in my flowerroom), I removed the plant. From now on 12 plants to go 😉.
I saw no poop on the plant. But I do saw some black spots on the peppers standing close to the plants. When I push on it, some black smurry came out, probably the poop you mentioned....💩
wow excellent content, have you found the royal cookies a pleasure to grow? I got some germinating next week, but I'm putting them up against th seeds French cookies in a cookie bake off lol! Your diary is awesome keep up the excellent work!
@JUNGLE_B4RNS,Final week in the greenhouse, I'll start flowering indoor under HPS and outdoor. I hope they will grow not much longer than the height RQS says .....
