Hey, Just out of curiosity do you plan on having any seed for trade at the end of season?

For the best potential you would need to up them to a raised garden bed but as i have read you are growing on a balcony/patio so that wont work. I think honestly i would maybe move to a lil bigger pot and ride this season out and learn as much as i can before i start next season. If I did decide...

Hi, I am not expert but i have read some leaf curl can be caused by lack of calcium. Also what have you changed before this started besides the light? Do you check soil moisture, or just water when you feel they are getting dry?

I know where Spanish fork is.. I go through there to go to orem, or provo. My guess is 3 weeks until outside plamting. I will be doing both pots and in ground peppers for my first true pepper growing season. I will have about 92 pepper plants so yea not potting them all :). What soil you getting...

Hey Gardenvato, What part of Utah you from? The weather sucks right now, snowing pretty good. Last year my garden was in the ground by April 15. I still have one more 15x30 garden to till up! Stinking weather :)

My great grandfather passed this advice down to me. I've never down any thing but break up the root ball on transplant. So really i knew of no difference until now. As always thanks for the great info!!

Great looking plants!!! Welcome to pepper headum.... You have a very nice set up. Keep us informed. Also great choice in peppers hope you enjoy!!

I dont mind MiracleGro buty MiracleGro organic choice is not good. The soil is mainly broke down barks or other woody material. Does not retain water well at all.

Where my pepper are going to get planted they will get morning sun until 12pm then evening 4pm to sunset. I was lucky to find a spot like that :)

In all honesty i dont like the potting mix you used. I have noticed by its self it does not retain water well. I bought 3 bags of this mix, i mix 1 part soil (from my garden)1 part MiracleGro moisture control and 1 part organic MiracleGro. I only still use it because i bought so many bags but...

That in the upper part of the state. I live in south central Utah in the town known for raising Butch Cassidy (Circleville, Utah). Utah is fun lots of things to do but, man the weather is crazy! 2 nice days in the late 60's then show!!!!! I cant wait to get my plants out side!!!!!
