What a cool little creature. We don’t have them in Oz, but I like how they hang around and patrol the plants for you! Plants are flying mate. I’m not sure how you do it. I’ve got a couple of autos at the moment, but I can’t quite get the best out of em outside. Mind you I am always moving them in and out of the shed cos of weather or kids parties or something, so I’m sure that doesn’t help👍🍻

@Shooey, man it has a lot to do with the weather! Summer weather was whack here - super hot suddenly, then raining/ Plants go stressed at the time, now it's heading towards autumn and the weather is great, the tradeoff being that there is serious pollen floating around this time of year! How's your conditions there now?

Very nice mate, you have the knack when it comes to autos outdoor. They can be fussy at times👍

@Shooey, thanks bro - I looked earlier and this bubblegum looks like she's been pollinated 😣. There's a lot of wild plants around so it was bound to happen... They'll probably all get some level of seed

Coming along nicely there mate. All of the girls are looking great, and looks like they will get some of the best conditions of the year to grow through. I put a few Aussie chillis in my last lemon cheese update for you matey👍

Best of luck with the new run Epok. Interesting about the soil, I was gonna reuse my super soil to start my new ones too! Might just bite the bullet and go for fresh. You are spot on about the roots too,,, cheers mate 🍻

@Shooey, thanks bud - I have a good feeling about these 3! Fresh is always better, unless you have like 100L or bigger pots and going proper no-till. I'm just being cheap, and I figured that if you can get results from inert medium like coco/perlite then used medium should be perfectly fine if you don't have high expectations about the stuff being as good as when you bought it. I usually introduce organic matter back into it at some point, either by feeding the medium with fish emulsion or a green manure or adding microbes into the soil (or a bit of all that inbetween grows). If you do re-use, just be sure to innoculate the soil with trichoderma fungus or something similar before you plant, in case there's pathogens in the soil. I've grown a few times in this medium already and other than this weird curly/gnarly leaf crap (which could be from something else) there's no signs of struggle. In fact, they are doing exceptionally well at the moment.

Those peppers look beautiful! I have a rose bush growing with the little lady I have going and I would love to do some hot peppers! Any recommendations for anything tasty and fun to grow close to the heat level of a habanero? Also the autos look great as well!

@Epokwan, haven't tried them but they sound very tasty.

@MrMunchies, thanks for stopping by! The scotch bonnets are one of my favourites for sure. Aji lemons are brilliant as well - good suggestion! These I have here are the aji amarillos, first time trying these out and they are very nice snacking peppers, but I have some aji lemon seeds that I'm keen to grow out next season. Have you tried a Kang Starr Lemon Starburst before? They're like a cross between a scotch bonnet and a bahamian goat but they're more citrussy - extremely interesting flavour and beautiful phenotypes

@SugarBoogers, OP is on the money suggesting scotch bonnets, a bit more heat than the habanero but great flavour. Op has a lovely Aji Limon pictured, those chillis are a little bit lower in heat to the habanero but another beautiful flavour.

I'm always amazed at the yields you get from your autos outdoor. Well done mate. And how's the taste? I've often wondered if bubblegum actually tastes like bubblegum, or is it more the scent during the grow.. looks fire Epok. Nice one mate👍

@Shooey, sounds like a good plan. Strains like this will definitely help you with that!

@Epokwan, it’s interesting to hear mate. I’ve got sweet seeds zkittles for next season so I’m pretty psyched to give it a go. I’m with you on the indicas. Mostly cos I grow photos and the shorter size and quicker finish suits best. I’ve got a plan to have 3 harvests next year. An early season, a mid, and a late season with the aim of keeping them small and quick. Also might experiment more with autos next season. Will hit you up for some tips! Cheers 🍻

@Shooey, hey bud! Thanks for sticking around for this one, it was a pleasure to grow. I tasted it after 10 days drying and no curing at all yet, so the true flavour hasn't popped yet - but so far it's pretty damn good already. It's fruity and sweet, not unlike Zkittlez. I'm sure the indoor folks could push the terpenes and bring out the real sweetness and berry notes, but for us outdoor guys, we get what we get. No bubblegum flavour for me though. Maybe it will come out in cure. The high on this and my recent Zkittlez are making me start to appreciate indicas more and more. I've always been more of a sativa fan, but these hybrids are giving the best of both and I'm really digging them! Peace bro

Love the peppers! Chocolate bhutlah is the hottest in the world, idc what anyone says. Way hotter than the Carolina Reaper imho. Put me down for hours eating half of one. Nice work!

@Louder, they are exceptionally brutal hey! And there's a lot of pod there as well. Haven't brought myself to eating more than a generous sliver of one - busy making a sauce with them tonight and it's as if someone has pepper sprayed my entire kitchen!
