Being a new pepper gardener of course everything looks like an emergency. Comparing some of my plants some look to be a brighter green. Is this normal?

Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.
Do some of these leaves look to be too bright green?

Yeah just let them get very dry before watering again

Thank you, that makes sense. I might have been a bit overly attentive with wateringPepperjack91 said:
They look fine to me, some varieties have brighter/lighter leaves than others (bacatums tend to be brighter green sometimes almost yellowey). If the soil's low on nitrogen they will look a little lighter/yellower than they should, but at that size, assuming you've used commercial compost there should be enough ferts there already. old soil or soiless mixes might have this problem. be careful though on the amount if you intend to ferilise at this size.
I used soilless for sprouting, but now I have them in foxfarm happy frog potting soil
Looks good. See my post of what they aren't supposed to look like!
