Not sure what to do now? Not the best pic. From my blackberry.

Was very happy to take inventory and see I have seven big jim seedlings. Thought I only had one or two!

http://www.burpee.com/product/seed+starting/burpee+super+growing+pellets+%281+bag+of+72%29.do These are what I use in addition to the Jiffy mix. These pellets are by far my favorite. Seems like they said they were a coir product.....I don't see it on the website. Idk what they are, I'll look...

I can't comment on the peat PUCKS...just the pots.

Not worth it when I have plastic available now. At the time, all the stores were closed and Lowes was the only thing open and that's all they had without buying a $20 greenhouse kit that I didn't need. Just a note in the future to do without until I have what I want.

I guess that was a stupid thing to ask. I think that has got to be my favorite kind of pepper. I mean superhots are cool, but really? I could absolutely go through some anaheim/ Mew Mexico style chilis if I had them on hand. Hoping to get a decent crop this year. Wifes friend makes an...

Oh well. Im getting ready to pot up, git rid of/cull/give away. Im tired of messing with em. MOST of them I have more of than I need and if I loose a few I lose em. Im tired of coming home to dead seedlings in dry soil. I have 4 kids, and a job, I can't baby them 5 times a day lol. I make sure...

Not saying peppergal is a bad place to order from....I did and most of my seed did wonderful. I'm just saying that my chocolate habs from there didn't do so hot either. Out of 4 seeds in coco-coir I got 1 to germinate. Out of 20 or so in plastic baggies with moist coffee filters at a constant...

My rant is about the peat cups/ containers/ trays whatever you want to call them. In particular, the 10 cell tray. When I wet it, they all but fell apart from each other. I have to soak the soil daily to keep the jiffy mix from drying out. NOW....new rant. I have Jiffy mix in plastic 10 cell...

I almost hate to read this thread. Makes me want some green chili and chili rellano badly. Chili rellano has to be the best damn dish on this planet.

Didn't you order from peppergal? My choc habs from there didn't do so hot either. Jiffy mix, coir pellets or coffee filter. Maybe ten percent success.

Well zelda. I guess I meant the anaheim types lol. I think potawie misunderstood too. Partially. Maybe? Lol

chileaddict, Im glad another on here can appreciate good green chile. Im still in the learning process obviously. I'm trying to get to where my wife says, it's good, but it's not like from back home. Don't know if I'll ever be able to give her good green chile like back in New Mexico, but that's...

Yep I had poor germination from the ones from peppergal. Got a couple to sprout. Will order from nmsu next year.

What's your favorite new mexico type chili and why? I personally do not know. Part of how I found THP was researching them online. I'm growing big jims and anaheims this year. Next year I plan to cut my varieties and put less emphasis on as many superhots and more on more 'useful' peppers such...

The pellets I use are made of that and work great. They sell bricks of it for the same price 32 or 36 pellets cost, that makes 8 quarts, Im buying that next year. No worries at all.

Just lost couple more. Ahh. I'm going to tranplant the remains to plastic tomorrow. Rediculous. I soaked yesterday. Bone dry today. And its humid in there! I dnt have time to babysit them.

I use burpee coir pellets with excellent results.

Yep the title shoulda been jiffy pots. The mix is fine in plastic. I was in a pinch and no plastito be found at the time. Already didn't like peat. That confirmed it.

I'm going to catch heat for this but here goes. I was in a pinch and needed some seed starting medium and a small tray. Bought a bag of jiffy and a pack of jiffy peat trays. The jiffy mix is ok in plastic trays but in the peat trays (all I could find, was already not a fan of them) it is...
