Hi all, I have some biquinho yellows, and they seem to be in a permanent state of being a seedling. They’re on heat propagation tray, two grow lights @ 16 hours / day, Westland superfine compost mixed with coco coir, and watered sparingly. They’ve been like this for about amonth now – anything I’m doing wrong or are they just slow?

Pretty random guess, but: too high pH? Coco + compost only could easily land you close to 7.5. Measure drain, slowly adjust to 6.
Thanks for suggestion, I don’t have anything to measure pH at the moment but will look at getting something this weekend!
Peppers take forever to grow. Also have you fertilized them at all? How hot is the heat mat? I remove all my peppers from heat mats once they have leaves.
I have 10 different varieties of peppers growing and my biquinho is by far the smallest. It is also the only capsicum chinensis that I am growing and they tend to need more time than others.
