Got my pepper seeds planted a couple weeks ago and some are already sprouting. Ordered some other "super hots" and didn't get them planted till a few days ago
Gonna get the rest of the garden planted this weekend. I got about 200 pounds of horse shit/chicken shit/compost/lime/fertilizer worked into it a week ago. Its ready for some seeds
I just increased the size of my raised garden this year, installed a fence and gate to keep the dogs out and am just about ready to start turning dirt. I have had some tarps covering the ground for the last 3 weeks, everything should just about be dead now. Where are you ordering your seeds from? I was thinking about planting on the full moon in March this year.
I gotta make another row somewhere else, probably on the side yard or something to plant some other stuff. My raised bed is 8x16 made out of landscape timbers, 3 high. My chickens need their own garden since they like greenery

Thx for the links, already have an order into Pepper Joe's. My raised bed went from a 4x16 to an 18x18. I basically cordoned off the entire end of one side yard but I had to put a path thru it to get to a gate in the fence. The path ended up being the key to getting the wife out there and involved in the project. Should of seen the old lady and son out there driving those spike nails into the landscape timbers, sounded like a bunch of woodpeckers all afternoon.
If you want some ghost pepper seeds let me know. I extracted about 100 from last seasons crop and have way more than I am going to plant. Its a guessing game on how well they will germinate. I planted some but they haven't sprouted yet. They are a PIA to grow
A tip I learned on planting pepper seeds. Soak them in water with just a splash of hydrogen peroxide(like one teaspoon to a bottle of water) for 12-24 hours before planting. Supposed to really increase germination rates. So far I believe it. I am up to about 80% germination of the seeds I planted 2-3 weeks ago.
