Day 71 - Comparing The Height Of Chillies.

Here's a picture i took this morning of some Ancho 101 chilli plants. I took the pots from each of the four locations and placed them next to each other in order to compare their growth. This is a very unscientific test, since it is unlikely that the seedlings were the same size when first re-potted and placed in different rooms. Having said that, the results here tend to be consistent with what I have found with all my chilli varieties. In the picture, the chillies from left to right are from Locations 1-4 respectively. Oddly, I had generally put the healthiest seedlings in Location 1 and the weakest in Location 4. It seems that heat is the greatest catalyst for growth of chilli seedlings.
