Peppers and How I May Get in Trouble in the Future
But, I'm not worried about them.
The Big Early bells are emerging later than the little hot peppers. That should make no difference. The Big Early seedlings are already far enuf along that I can see 6. As recently as 48 hours ago, there were no plants in this box.
Where might I get in trouble? The Big Early is a large plant and will grow quickly. Competing for light, they may interfere with the little guys next door. However, the closest are Super Chili and those are quite a bit larger than the tiny Thai Hots. Still, I will soon have to be sure that The Big Early plants are on the north side, just as tho' I've got them pushed up against each other in the garden. Rotating the box daily is not my technique, anyway. It might help for awhile with stretching seedlings but you can tie the things in knots!! Then, just try to get them out for transplanting in larger containers .
37 eggplants, still no Rolecks . . . I'll only know the time by the title of this thread: Hello 2013!
