Hi there again. I have been watching my peppers grow and now most are 2 1/2-3" tall, with a couple a bit taller. They are in seed starting trays similar to those of the 72 tray starter kits, approximately 1 1/2" square. The reason I am asking is that the peppers seem to be slowing down in growth. They have been in these homes for approximately 2 months, give a week or so. So I am wondering if it is time to pot up into new larger homes comprised of cups? If so, would they continue their growth? They are healthy and all, but I was just thinking they need to be moved. Thank you for any help in advance.

Yup. Sounds like it's time to graduate them. I bet they're starting to get root bound. Growth will resume soon after they get used to their new homes.
Ok. Well just got back here after closing 58 deals. Bought 58 new homes and put 58 back up for rent for next spring. 57 out of 58 clients were happy so far, just 1 did not want to take its roots to the new home, so I will monitor how it does. Thank you. And also, I am leaving early Monday morning for the U.S.A. for a few days. Would it be safe to bottom water these guys tomorrow after a bit of shock from moving today, or when would be ok to do so. Thank you again.
