Oh good, glad to hear this. All my other peppers are looking great, and this is the very first time I have grown peppers from seed. I usually just get packs of starts at the garden center, so I'm pretty excited about it. Some peppers are short and squat, and those Aji's are just getting so tall compared to the others, but the stems are leggy and no leaves near the bottom so I thought burying them would be good.
I was lucky enough that a few TV members sent me some nice varieties and I also got a few in the big swap this year, and bought the Melrose peppers from Tania, those look fantastic! Yum yum, can't wait to eat these!
Soda bottle trick ...just the other day I was looking at one thinking the very same thing! good to know I wasn't going crazy.
