wow nice. dunno aything about raising habanero, but perhaps not enough sunlight? i think these type like tons of son no?

do u trim it?

Yeah. My balcony dont get enough sunlight.

No, never trim before. Worried if trim it wont grow back at moment. Mayb once it start to fruit I will trim.

i don't trim mine as well. i asked that question because i see yours looks healthy and leafy. i read somewhere before, a fella suggested to trim so new shoots would grow. is that true?

That is true. I saw a few videos on that. But I dont dare bcause my plants dont get enough sun. Mayb wit enough sun, it might work best.

My first harvest of chili! The plant has been growing well and healthy, lots of leaves and flowers, but so far only one fruit. Maybe I should do self pollination?

any plans to transfer to bigger pot or plant on ground?

healthy leaves. U use pesticide?

Yes.. plan to transfer it to ground in near future..

I use home make pesticide which is soap water.. does this count?

yes it does. share the recipe please. mine not working lah.

Actually mine barely working too.. It's more like repellent.. After few days the bugs just coming back.. Most of the time I manually remove the bugs or trim out the leaves which is infected..

I use this. Buy from pasar tani pj section 17 on every thursday.
Mix 10ml with 1 litter no clorin water and spray in the evening.
I only spray once and all infection will disappear. No need to trim the leaves.

Anyone facing white bugs/insect issue that likes to hide under the leaves?
Any solutions to this?

Also, anyone successfully grows avocado and lemon?

white bugs probably mealy bugs? if so i think just soapy water can deal with them if not big infestation.

Yup. Can a little bit of dish washer soap with water and spray.

You can use the solution I posted earlier today.

Yep. Mealy bugs.
Let me try. Have to turn the back-side of leaves and spray directly?
What's the main reason for mealy bugs?
