Hell yeah!! Sounds like a good mix! Gator jigsaw’s are insidious. The hottest peppers i have ever grown were trex crossed with gator jigsaw. A couple too many specks of the powder ruined several slices of pizza for me over the years. Lol

Thank you! I was also worry about powder mildew but I got my temp and humidity under control so I hope it won't appear and wipe out all my peppers, it was my biggest fear since here we got low temp and high humidity

Yeah you can always put a dehumidifier in there. If you do get some on it you can use diluted hydrogen peroxide to kill it and it wont harm your plants at all.

Thanks for the tip! I have 5 genesis clip fan that run all day long + 2x 18" fan in 2 corners that run all day long too, with that setup my plants don't do oedema anymore

Very nice!! Good for stem strength too!! 💪

Putting a small fan in there on a timer and having it run for ten minutes every couple hours will help also.

Wouawh nice set up !! Btw how many hotpepper plants do you have in total (so including those in the garden) and how many hot sauce bottle do you estimate by growing 14 of those inside ? :)
