I have planted various peppers and few tomatoes that I will list later on in this topic or you can just read them from the labels on the pictures.
 
So lets begin with the soil, i have two bags of different soil at hand one from last season..
([member=Rawkstah] : Can I use this soil from 3 years ago? -  , [member="Guatemalan Insanity Pepper"] - no that soil has it date expired :mope: " )
Bag numero uno,

very aerated light soil for plants that have problems rooting and some mycelium in it, drains like a mofo and can barely keep any moisture in it
 ​
second one that is potting soil rich will all of that sweet sweet nutritional value

By the time I finished making these little holes and putting the seeds in  I can feel my lower back muscles ( sup [member=fertilizer] ) because I exercise so much .... khm

     Nice find! Spearmint?
 
Actually not really sure about the species, I had this mint in my yard going wild for years! It acctually migrates all over the yard I had patches that were cleared or destroyed and then next season it just pop somewhere else and start to form a mint patch all over again =) It might be normal mint but it kinda looks like spearmint so who knows? Also what is normal mint after all :P
 
let it be clear i never planted any mint in the past ever, it kinda just pop by itself xD

Mint smells so nice. What you're making? Tea, syrup?
 
I cleared it and put it over paper to dry up, my whole place smells so good :D. I usually put it as spice in some of the dishes, and hardly ever use for tea but it happens if I have some left over when its winter time
