I will be ordering light warrior seed starter mix next week & sow seed on February 18th
 
I have changed my garden plans.
It will now be mainly a flower & herb garden designed to bring in pollinators & other benifical insects .
I will still have some peppers & tomatoes but only four varieties of each.

I got my light warrior in Thursday & sowed yesterday the peppers & tomatoes here's hoping for good germination results ;) 
I also plan to introduce praying mantis to the garden this season & hope to add yarrow to bring in beneficial wasp for those pesky tomato worms ;) 
 
Well so far none of pepper seeds of the varieties I sowed have germinated.
On the tomato front my Purple Bumblebee are at six seedlings so Sunrise Bumblebee at 2 .
The dwarf tomato varieties are no shows so far.
I am giving the peppers & dwarf tomatoes till monday then I will resow if they still have not come up.

Patience Jason your peppers from your list need time and warmth ... I am sure they will loop ... had one variety this season that took nearly four weeks
 
Prepared the beds today now just need to weedeate around the garden beds/aera.
Tomatoes need to be potted up soon & I think I'll pot up the peppers as well
I will be sowing the beds soon as well I do have coneflowers, African Daisy ,black eye Susan's & milkweed already coming up
Spicy hot oregano has made a comeback
Thinking of sowing cosmic purple carrots I got them as a freebie
 
Well have moved all peppers but the Zapotecs Jalapenos to moms so the zapotec's will be isolated.
Two of the plants at moms are ether papa dreadie or unknown Trinidad scotch bonnet X unknown Trinidad 7 Pot.
The others at moms are 2 mushroom peppers & 1 Santa Fe Grande
I am continuing working on my beneficial insect/pollinator/butterfly garden it is slowly coming along.
I seen Pennsylvania Leatherwings,lady bugs,hoverfly's & have a wolf spider living there .
I also have spoted some benitifical wasp.

I also been toying with the ideal of starting some pepper plants an cull to one an over winter this fall.
I have not decided if I do what species/variety it will be .
Sounds like a great project, Jason.
Pick a good one!

Nice and healthy plant Jason may be a while before it can be identified... how's the rest of your grow going
Thanks John things may have evolved into a different course then I originally planed but the new grow is going well.
The benitifical insect/pollinator garden doing great even have bryds yellow finch,hummingbirds & some unidentified Byrd
The bonnets or bonnet hybrids are doing good as well as the Zapotec's & Jamaican Mushrooms.
I only have one santa fe Grande pod but it's huge!
Mystery Tomato still don't have a clue but I love this plant putting on more fruit not & the pod it had is getting ripe might be a Brandywine
Best wishes on your grow I need to get caught up on glogs & figure how to use Dropbox better
