First timer grow log

Howdy,

My name is Steve i live in Iowa, i have decided to try my hand at growing my favorite pepper this year and after reading many forums i decided to register here and post a pic to get some of you expert's input on my baby habs. This pic was taken today they were sowed 11 days ago, i have never attempted to grow peppers from seed so i am a complete newb and not sure what to look for as far as how things are goin so far. Thanks for any responses and take it easy.

Thanks PB, all the time? Well i do use a 2-4-0 fish emu and epsom and calcium chloride mix for a foliar spray and i hit them at night at least a few times a week i have also gave them a MG tomato food 18-18-21 mixed at 6-6-7 twice since i potted up to 5 gallon pots i think it was around 10 days between the feeds

Your thread title says "First Timer" but it sure doesn't look that way based on your pictures. Great job.

Thanks Josh, yea i have never even tried to grow any type of plant or veggie not even a store bought 1 let alone from seed. the day i bought the jiffy greenhouse back in early march i started spending a few hours a day researching and still do as well as this forum has really helped me out along the way(thanks!)

it may very well just be beginners luck tho
