    in-ground Give up planting peppers in-ground?

    I didn't read the entire thread, but I would ask if his pots will get more than the 6 hours of sun the raised beds do, and if he can manage them the same way, e.g., put the same amount of time/care into them.   I grow both in-ground and in pots (5 gallon or larger). It's somewhat dependent on...

    "Is it hot sauce for dogs?"

      Yeah, my dog slurps fish fertilizer from my watering can when I don't watch him. I'll add a dash of hot sauce next time to see what happens :P

    Growing in shae

    I just noticed a local herb farm sells ramps. I may give them a shot. I'm not sure why I put the bed in this location in the first place, but I'll try to make the most of it. Before trying to move it.

    Growing in shae

    I have one shaded bed in my yard. I've read that Asian greens grow well in shade. Stuff like pac choi. Anyone have experience with that, or any suggestions on growing edibles in mostly shade? Thanks

    THP is the only "Social Media" I use.

    I only do gardening forums, the other stuff is too much work. And don't have much to sell. I sold excess honey through my wife at the gyms she goes to. Now I'm getting chickens. Same distribution chain for eggs.

    chinense Carolina Reaper pepper causes thunderclap headache

    I really doubt if the article will stop anyone from eating super-hots. If anything, it will make people more curious. I don't think people would even stop if it made them shoot flames out of their a$$es. They'd probably see it as a neat party trick.

    MikeUSMC 2018 Grow

    Good luck after the bumpy start.   What's your plan for isolation? Bagging whole plants? Individual flowers? Moving some plants to different locations?   That's going to be one of my big focuses for this year.

    First time building a... (Suggestions)

    Some peppers sprawl outward like a thick shrub, while others shoot straight up and remain somewhat narrow. I have fit 6 peppers (3 habs, 3 sheepnose) in a 4x8 bed. The habs did outstanding, the sheepnose just pedestrian. I have had 1 ghost dominate a 4x4 bed where everything else was...

    When do you like to transplant?

    As soon as they germinate to show the cotyledons (sometimes I remove the seed coat) in 2" soil blocks, they go in 4" pots until they go outside in May.
