What I want to do is grow them and give them to family memebers. They all would appreciate a little life to there garden..LOL..Im planning to keep around 10 of them. And the rest Im gonna give away. Also in a few days Im gonna start culling the seedlings. Because I only want one plant per pot and theres like 2-4 in each pot..LOL..But yes thanks!!!:D

Arrgghhh! Don't waste 'em all in a powder. :snooty:
Slice the pods up into thin strips and simmer them in your favorite pasta sauce (my wife's gonna be sick to death of pasta this summer) or better yet, pick 'em off the plant, dip them in melted chocolate and eat. :think:

I can't wait to try them candied this year.
 
Ok Guitar hero! got the pics I think there huge but lets see wat u think..LOL

Actually, those are a great size for peppers! I have some of my peppers in a slightly bigger (5 gallon I believe) pot. The picture below was taken a month and a half ago (they were still in their winter state at that point)

Hey Turkey,
The habs are looking good, chinenses always grow stout up north, up in your zone after you harden them off and get them in the direct sun light they should grow like mad. The cayennes look like they are looking for light & not having the first true leaves, peat pods allow you to up pot them if you don't disturb what roots they have. I have found too early of replanting without true leaves they tend to wither and die. IMOO
Good luck with your chiles.

I Agree dats why most of the strong looking ones are in there own Pot and have the light right above dem..about 2 inches off

Thanks!
 
Hey Turk,
I thought your habs looked a little pale but figured the light source, if you can put a fan on them and get them close to a window with some indirect light ,(IMOO) sun is fun for chiles. I'll try to post 90 some plants growing from a bow window with real sun light tommorow ( no florescenced used). and yes my jamacan scotch bonnets, madam jeanettes and nagas are short and stout too.
Cheers,

Marv

The best mix that I've found (and I've tried many a commercial soil) is the following:
87% Sunland Organic Potting Soil
10% Sunland Organic Compost
03% Sand
