I had saved the seeds from some sweet peppers that I bought at the market. So I thought I would try to grow them. They take a particularly long time to get going so they were the first to be planted in my little pots. After they grew to 2 inches high I decided to transplant them into a larger pot with better soil. Do I have any? Yes! Remember the compost bin I installed last year? The soil at the bottom is black as coal. Luscious if your a soil lover.
Peppers especially love a rich composted soil, so I filled a pot for my little friends to go in. I also added a few of my worms. They are doing wonderful, by the way. Many babies were born over the winter months. So, it's time for them to go to pay their rent. I only transplanted the peppers last week, and already they have doubled in size. The compost must be working.
