What are the best temp range for optimal growth for newly emerged seedlings that still have seed leaves?

I know some of yall will think I am really really late. I like to think I am really really early! On the 19th I started sevral seeds in peat pellets I had sitting around the house. I started Trinidad Scorpion, Fatalii, Trinidad Douglah, and Bhut Jolokia. Then on the 21st or 22nd I started Red 7...

For those of us who grow chiles or anything else for that matter as a hobby and are married having a supportive spouse is important. Well I just found out my wife is not really all that supportive of my only hobby I have left. Twice today she has belittled me and my gardening. More specifically...

I'm just curious if anyone is dedicated to using compost in their pots? Also has anyone done a side by side comparison with plain potting soil/mix and a combination of potting soil/mix and compost? If so what were your results or observations?

Hi all. Newbie to this forum and growing peppers. Long time lurker and I finally joined. Does anyone have any spare, left over, or unwanted pepper plants or seeds? I have only grown the standard bell and jalapenos and want to venture out to the big boys. I really am interested in the Carribean...
