Tomato feed v's chilli focus v's water?

[darcyvuqua]

Orange hab fed one has white label

Normal cayenne fed one has white label in

Is there much difference? I can't see exactly, but they both look to have the same number of leaf pairs? but the stem on the "fed" one is more elongated?

I'm sure there must be an improvement, but I wonder if it has made the plant just stretch more?

Perhaps the surface area of the leaves, like-for-like, is bigger on the fed ones too?

[Kristen]

Sorry, posted before I saw your two later photos. Those look bigger (more leaves) on the fed plant?

[darcyvuqua]

The biggest difference is on the orange hab much bigger plant!

The purple cayenne has a little bit of a lead on the un fed one

But for the normal cayenne and jalapeño you are quite right in saying there not much difference this is only after one feed they were fed again yesterday I'm going to carry on this experiment up until fruiting!

Update again next Sunday/Monday.

this is only after one feed

Ah! That makes it sound much more impressive

Yeh, I was thinking exactly the same when looking at the pics, they just look abit taller. Although, the Hab definitely looks leafier.

Are you feeding once a week?

Yeah feeding each Sunday so they have had there second feed the fed Habs are storming no real difference with the rest bit more growth but nothing amazing!

[SoulBroNo1]

Yeah, I was hoping to see more vegetation rather than growth.

I may try looking into some feed/fertilizer that just helps replenish the nutrients in the compost. Although I guess that is what most feeds do?

[SoulBroNo1]

Right so I'd thought I would add my own little experiment to this thread as well.

I have just purchased some Organic Seaweed Fertilizer and given my plants their first feed. I have taken these 2 pairs of plants that were a similar size, fed one and left the other for comparison.

These are Habaneros



These are either Jalapeños or Jwalas

I've not updated this week as there is no real change maybe update fortnightly
