and the pendulum doth swing.
I remember that from the chilis etc i grow. Dont think they are as energetic when they get going so this surprised me quite a bit. especially the stems have thickened up significantly.When a plant grows roots, it hardly grows upward, then it starts to grow very quickly.
What is the leaf count per variety? That's more important than how tall the plants get at harvest time. Those plants have very closely spaced leaves, if your leaf count is right you are going to have a normal harvest. They also still have some more growing to do. They look great.Scratch that its flowering time. which i guess means i need to quicken up getting the uv bulbs and that i can probably save the other 2 plants still in small pots that i almost discarded.

one of the criollo 98 (bottom right) in front has 8 big leaves and a total of 16 including the top ones that are still growing, im not counting the 2 closest to the bud. The back right one looks the same but i havent counted it. Altough the bottom 2 leaves look a bit smaller than the ones directly above em.What is the leaf count per variety?
