    @Hanglow are the ones in the foreground Manzano? I had those once and remember the furry leaves.

      They are Locotos, so same species, capsicum pubescens . I've got two that I overwintered and they are going great, loads of new growth.

        Sowed some Hungarian Hot Wax, Anaheim, Topero Rosso and some Corno di Torro Rosso and some early Sweet Peas to grow in the greenhouse.

          I've stuck another mirosol seed in yesterday as nothing showing yet. Have placed in the prop on wet paper towel

            Both of these are overwintered, the locoto (capsicum pubescens) has put out lots of new growth, while the jalapeno (capsicum annuum) has only just started. The big leaves on the jalapeno are all last year's growth

              Peppers ticking along nicely under that new light. Need potting up. Toms seem happy. :fingers crossed:

                I'll have to pot mine on soon as there's not enough compost in my germinating mix to keep them going. Mirasols still not showing.

                  Mirasols still not showing so have written them off and ordered some Kashmiri chilli seeds that will get started late but probably catch up anyway.
                  I've just grabbed some compost in to warm up before potting on. 50:50 perlite to MPC

                    If space is a problem you could start feeding rather than potting on, I've always noticed peppers have a smaller root system than you would expect.

                      Not a bad idea that. What does everyone use for early feeding these days?

                      I fed mine with half strength MiracleGro, it's general purpose. Mine were looking yellowy probably due to few nutrients in the seed compost.
