Hey everyone.. I'm a newbie at the pepper growing this year, actually newbie at growing all together but I have read many of the forum pages and they all are very helpful!! . As of right now trying to germinate 3 types of peppers, big thai hybrid, tequila sunrise oriental, and tangerine dream. I have also bought a couple plants from lowes and local nursery as follows 2 tobasco, 1 thai dragon, 1 cow horn, and 1 chili red. Growing in a container system with holes in the bottom with layer of rock with a even mix of potting mix compost and peat moss as the soil, using epsom salt as a fertilizer. First main question is when should I start seeing growth in the plants that are in containers

to THP J.S.S. I am nearly on the same latitude as you and if your weather has been anything like ours the last month then growth has probably been slow. It's been too cold and wet for nearly the whole month. Looks like we are finally going to have a week in the 80s staring thursday. If that is the same case for you then I would expect you will see them start to snap out of it, at least I am hoping mine come around and start looking better this week 
They've put up with a lot this year already...
