They did stretch at the beginning because I didn't know they had sprouted and didn't have the lights on, but they seem happy now. Nothing seems to be stretching, just growing upwards as normal. In the middle of the day it's going to start getting up into the 60s in a couple of weeks. I could...

Probably another month. They're growing right now so I'm not sure why you're saying that. Edit: If the light wasn't enough, they just wouldn't grow and would have died right?

Status update with new pics. Everything seems to be growing well. There are some tomatoes in the front on the first pic too. Going to put these in small pots soon.

Eventually put outside. And if they don't mature in time to give me pods I'll bring them back in and get some stronger lights to finish them off inside.

Growth after 4 Days: Everyone seems happy :D. Even got a few more sprouts to come through. Seems like they want to grow.

Thanks guys. I'll post an update in a few days to let you know how things are going.

@FirstLoveAdmire: The tripod grow lights seemed to be ok when I brought some full sized pepper plants in at the end of last season, kept them alive for another 6 - 8 weeks, so I figured they'd be ok for seed starting too. I also would like to figure out a way to create an indoor grow space I...

So I'm keeping the lights about 6 inches above. Using "Sunshine all purpose soil" it says it works for seed starting. I'm growing a bunch of different types: Cayenne, Habanero, Tabasco, Reapers, Ghosts, Serrano, Chiltepin. I put 3 or 4 seeds in each cell because I wasn't sure how many would...

So after a few days this is what I have. How do these look? I know there are a few droopy ones that have something going on, but I need help knowing what I should be seeing. I turned off the grow lights for the photo, and I do have a fan I occasionally put near them. I give them a little...

Yeah I looked at that too, but no pictures is pretty unhelpful when you don't know what to look for.

Ok, this is only 5 days after planting and still have a lot of seeds to germinate. Thanks.

So I have these little sprouts that just came in overnight. Should I leave these in the domes a little longer or transplant them now? I have more that look like this, but these are three good ones. First time growing from seed so I need some help here. Thank you.

Thanks guys. I'll try anything at this point. For those plants that you cut back to just the trunk, do they produce a lot more fruit earlier than a plant started from seed?

Ok, I'll keep all that in mind. I'm doing the same as you and keeping them under lights, but I may need to just trim them like you said. Thanks.

Hey guys, So I brought my plants in to try to overwinter them, but didn't do anything special and now they have a bit of a pest problem. I've been treating them with Neem + dish soap and warm water soak in their regular water that I feed them, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. These...

The motherload. Final harvest for this season. At my seeding station to start prepping for next season. Pictured are Serrano peppers, Cayenne, Thai, Ghost, Trinidad Scorpion, Reapers, Tabascos, and a few Habaneros.

A branch broke on one of my Trinidad Scorpion plants and I had to harvest 3 unripe pods. This is one of them. The indents kind of make it look like it has a scary face IMO.

First big one. Ghost peppers, Habaneros, Cayenne, and a few Serrano peppers.

A couple of very nice habanero pods today.

A pretty large Carolina Reaper I found on my plant.
