I started my seeds in early February and continued starting seeds until April...just couldn't stop starting new varieties...again. I always take the cheap route and use plain old Miracle-Gro potting soil. It has always worked for me. I also start my seeds in paper towels then transfer them straight to 4 inch pots (I thought they were 3 inch, but they're 4). I use a 125w CFL for lighting and I usually grow around 30 plants. Here's the beginning.

I had crappy soil before this pic and some of these are bare-root transplants. But I did lose one...Chocolate Primo. It just looked funky after transplant.

Here they were just before plant out. Pic taken on May 4...with the addition of a few new seedlings and maters.

Peppers planted out May 10.

Then I ran into the bugs. The flippin' bugs. Judging by the damage, I'm guessing broad mites.

But I soaped then neemed a couple times and things are looking up. I'll have to get a pic of what that plant (Goatsweed) looks like now. This is the latest pic with the addition of the nursery veggies.

That'll probably do it for now. Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you all very much! My gf helped me out tremendously by putting all of my seeds in a binder for me.

It's a little thick. Not as thick as some. But I'm sure it'll get thicker. Lol

Thank you, Sim! That means a lot. You have some of the same lava seeds! I harvested them all from one pod. It'll be rockin'!

Does anybody know when Pimenta de Neyde are ripe? They look a little lighter in the sun, but I pulled one off that had been hanging a while and it was still green. I have no clue.

Thank you, Rick! I'm really lovin' the CPR plant. I'm trying to clone it right now by just leaving it in water. I know there are better ways of doing it, but I'm cheap and always broke. So I just use what's around. I don't have rockwool or jiffy pellets, so a water bottle is it. Do you know how well honey works as a rooting hormone? Thinking about trying it.

i've rooted even finger thick branches that broke off in just water changed every couple days.
That being said, i've had far more success rooting smaller shoots. 
I find its helpful but not necessary to cut back a lot of the leaves, even cutting large leaves in half to reduce transpiration until it sets roots, also I give the foliage a sprinkling of water every other day as well.
 I may be completely wrong but i was under the assumption that honey is sometimes used for it's antibacterial properties to prevent the stem from rotting rather than rooting.  I have not tried using Honey for rooting cuttings, so i have no personal experience there to add.
