    Missing friends and new homecare nurse

    Sorry to hear about your mom...   I have found, that when I am in the dumps (which is quite often), I find some activities to do with my daughter.  Board games, help her on her pepper reviews, or even ask her to pretend she is your favorite billy goat and scare the homecare worker...  Hard times...

    Nothing is sprouting!!

    Oh, the one minor issue with the pads...  If you let the seedling grow more than about 1/2", the tap root will often dig into the pad and be a bit difficult to remove without damaging it.  I found that if a seedling is stuck, I gently rip the pad until I get to the seedling.  Then it usually...

    Nothing is sprouting!!

    I too only used cups this season.  I got the little portion cups aka jello shot cups.  They are normally used in restaurants to give condiments in.  Mine are 2oz cups, and have a lid that snaps on.   Instead of using a paper towel or coffee filter, I have found that a 100% cotton, makeup...

      I split my seeds into 2 sets.  Set one has been in the freezer since I got them.  Set 2 has not.  I have never done the freezer trick, so I didn't want to risk all of them with it.   24h soak in KNO3 bath begins!

    I have never heard of fruit flies bothering plants either.  I am telling how to treat fungus gnats.

    After that, cover the top of your soil with about a 1/2 of sand.  The sand will dry out very quickly after watering, and make them think the soil is dry.  They only like wet soil, so they will leave.

    wanted WTB, Cumari do Para and Aji Cito PLANTS

    If anyone has any extras, I would happily buy them.  These are the only 2 varieties that didn't sprout for me other than the growdown Aji Blanco.  They were also varieties that I loved (cumari), or was very eager to try (cito).   I can wait until they have grown out a bit.  I just want to know I...

    Thank You THP. aka Boss, Pookie, Patron, El Hefe, DanO Dedicated thread for all of your awesomeness.

    I know, I have always been made to feel right at home around here.  If anything else, THP has created an atmosphere that is not over bearing with rules, not full of drama and mindless bickering, and in general a fun place to hang around.  I have been on my fair share of forums, and none have the...

    Ya, if you grind them up really fine it eliminates the hard seed casing and allows them to germinate almost instantly. Plus then you get many plants from one seed!

    Anyone here ever buy anything on woot.com?

    Anyways, here is the shirts I was mentioning.  Again, I am getting destroyed.  I'm not graphic artist, but it is still fun trying!  Any votes my way would be appreciated!   http://shirt.woot.com/derby/entry/91920/its-always-a-battle-to-wake-up  ...

    seeds nighttime germination temps

    Low 90s I wouldn't worry about.  Just do not keep them that high now that you realize.  Peppers, while difficult to germinate, are still pretty resilient.   With that being said, a thermostat, or a temperature controller is nice to have.
