i plant them deeper most of the time. never had a problem really. 

the problem with straw or hay is it's made from weeds that grow in pasture so it contains literally thousands of seeds (if not more) for the weeds you are trying to avoid. i just bite the bullet and buy some bags of mulch. 

this is what the ones that grow in my yard look like: http://www.evergreenseeds.com/bimehybado.html   i'm gonna try to grow some intentionally, in some good soil, and see what happens. i read that you don't want to eat them when they are ripe, or they can cause all kinds of gut problems. i also...

one thing for sure, you want BPA free plastic. i've stored hot sauce in a little "food safe" squirt bottle that i purchased in the camping section at walmart. it seems to be ok, but i really don't know for sure.

i'd say they are equally at risk. all you need is one bee or a good gust of wind and you have the chance of cross pollenation. i'd not worry so much about it, most folks that trade seeds expect "open pollinated" seeds, where there's always the small chance of getting a cross. personally, i like...

what about the wild ones that grow on my fence? what do you make of those? are they edible? i've been seeing these things for years never knowing what they were. 

i've been seeing these bags utilized for a while now, and i am definitely going to put some of them to use to see what happens. never used anything but a regular nursery pot or similar, so i'm looking forward to trying them.

why would anybody ever want a sweet pepper?  ;)

looks like sunburn to me maybe. not sure about "water burn". usually too much water will just cause the leaves to droop and drop
