Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Looking at seedling pot inventory, like AJ. Definitely need more as well. (Got any good sources online anyone?)
Also pulled out all my seed stock. Three rather large boxes stuffed full of all kinds of veggies from the last few years.
Looks like clean-out time. Maybe do a give away? Dunno. Maybe.

What did I do today that was pepper related?
Let's see.
I bought a pH/moisture tester thing finally.
Bought some more starting soil and arranged all my nutrients.
Gave my overwintering bhut and trinidad scorp plant some water.
Bought some sheets of styrofoam to build my germination station enclosure. Also picked up two full spectrum flouro light bulbs.
Filled the aerogarden. Not going to use it for a ton of seeds like last year, but I do want to use it for a few, just to note different results. Also going to start some stevia in it.
Drew up a tenative diagram of my yard and what I'm going to put where. Gotta find a place to rent a tiller for a day or two, though. Need more room.
The weather stinks, but it feels good to be getting some prep work done earlier this year, hopefully I'll be able to get my plants into the ground or a container faster and have a much better haul.

Today I picked up 30 3" pots and another tray and a small electric space heater with thermostat. The plan for the heater is to put it on my germination shelf to keep it nice and warm (it's in the basement).
I also watered my seedlings and seeds / starting mix. So far I have 4 bhuts and 1 fatalii up.
I also gave my jalapeno mash a shake and swirl to let the bubbles up.

Today, I went to Home Depot and looked through starter trays and other starter kits for seeds.
Will go to Lowe's tomorrow and see what they have to offer.
Wanted to fill up kanthari, chot and mundu seeds in plastic bags but my Grand daughter would not leave me alone.
So tomorrow.

Yesterday I made a little fresh salsa, only 8 gallons this time. Swirled the 2 gallons of mash, and didn't see as many bubbles as I was looking for so I decided to refresh the mash, which I did today!
Today, I put the mash in a clean pan and picked out the old napa cabbage leaves. I hadn't been able to get a good sniff of the mash until I dumped it out of the crock. It has a really good clean almost pickle smell. Didn't smell musty at all. I decided to put fresh cabbage in to keep the fermentation going strong. I'm still reading tons of info everywhere about making mash and can't come up with anything conclusive, so I'm winging it. Originally, I was planning on re-layering every week with fresh cabbage, but after smelling it today, I decided it would be fine to let it go for the rest of the month.
I re-layered the peppers with the fresh napa cabbage, wrapped it back up with the bowl holding everything down, and back under the bucket.
