Default I have seedlings

Happy to report I just checked and YES the pepper seeds I planted a week ago are emerging!! My cardboard box cover set up has made a nice warm environment when combined with a pair of 1600 Lumen, 6500 Kelvin CFL lights. Gotta go but I'll post up pics later today.

Roper2008, its always wait & hope with peppers I ussally wait just about 2 weeks to see any activity, but this morning 5 of the 6 cells have seedlings coming up. This is a head start for me, 12weeks and I hope to be putting them in grow bags!

Peppers are always the hardest to germinate. I've had them take up to 4 weeks, but just now, some Cayennes (at least 3 years old) emerged after 4 days.
