Hi all!
Posting from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and really enjoying my first foray into the world of growing my own peppers.
I've started with Habanero, Jalapeno and Serrano peppers as well as some mini-Bells my wife requested and we're in the middle of hardening them off and are getting ready to plant them in their larger, more permanent homes.
One issue we noticed was when my wife left them out in the sun a little too long one day and it really seemed to crisp up the top of a few of the plants. They seem to be doing ok, but we had to pick off some of the shrivelled/yellowed leaves that the sun baked. (Won't do that again)
Anyway, hope to get some great advice from everyone here as well as maybe find a few other growers in Winnipeg who are used to this climate and can give me some advice.
Here's the last picture I took of our plants...it's a few weeks old and they're further along now. We've got far too many, and it seems like we underestimated how many successful seedlings would sprout.
There's one MONSTER Serrano in the back that has somehow powered past every other plant we've got...I don't know what makes him so special.
