Hello guys, This will be my first hot pepper grow.. I just have a few questions and was hoping for some tips and tricks from some experienced growers. I was at my local nursery the other day and i saw some that they had a giant room full of seeds.. I was looking around and i picked out 3 varieties i thought would be interesting to grow. I got Habanero, Thai Dragon, and Tobasco.. I started germinating them earlier today using the paper towel method on a heat pad.
1. I was wondering if i should start them inside with some daylight cfl bulbs, then move them outside or should i put them straight outside?
2. Since it usually gets to about 110 F in the summer, should i keep them in the shade or will they be alright in the sun?
3. Should i plant them into the ground, or i also have 3 or 5 gallon buckets i could grow in.
4. Would i be able to keep them outside all year round or will they die in the winter?
5. About how long do the varieties i have chosen usually take to start harvesting.
Thanks alot and I'm looking forward To this grow..
Thanks again
