There are no secrets in nature dude She is quite telling given the chance...Actually, thats where the pine bark comes into play..it keeps just the right amount of air for the roots to breath a bit and as well as acting as a great way to keep the soil well drained to prevent root rot. Both are big factors of growing down here in Florida. The air is very humid already and root rot can become an issue if not WELL drained. Which in turn means they require more water and watering more often as well, but well worth the effort for beautiful plants and peppers!! Wait...I have said to much already....LOL Cant GIVE away all the secrets...............
Looking good, and love the poly... next best thing to some good hardwood mulch
