Pepper Plants Help--Yellowing Leaves

[HumbleAmerican]

Handful of rabbit manure works great for starts.

Grow lights are finicky. I run 12/12. As plants do need darkness to properly cycle. Keep the grow light 6” max above the plant. If your setup isn’t giving intense enough light, you will have spindly plants and yellowing too. You’re better watering hard every few days than keeping them wet.

It’s unfortunately a giant experiment that may take several cycles to ‘get right’

Thanks again everyone!

@HumbleAmerican awesome setup! Is that some sort of Bonsai tree?

Yeah it’s a bonsai. It lives there a couple weeks getting nice and happy, then a few months on its stand.

As far as fertilizers, I used a water soluble fish emulsion fertilizer for my seedlings/young plants. It seemed to work well. The biggest downside is its terrible smell.
We got a bottle of it off of Amazon I believe.

Don't know if you are still looking into fertilizers or not but if you're going an organic route, I would recommend Advance Nutrients OG Organic line, it's very good stuff.
Look for their OG Organics Iguana Juice Grow and once your plants start to bloom you can switch to OG Organics Iguana Juice Bloom.

Unlike fish emulsion-based fertilizers Advance Nutrients uses Fish Protein Hydrolysate and adds beneficial nutrients making a really good product.
