I started growing some peppers in January and the latest seeds went in dirt in March, so far a lot of leaves, some cayennes have matured and they were tasty. A few flowers on a couple superhots. I gave my sister a Carolina reaper in a 4" pot and hers is at least twice as big as any of mine, and it's full of flowers. Gonna be a hot summer!!!

I just harvested my spring garden - greens, broccoli, lettuce, peas and a few other things. While that was growing I sprouted my peppers and other summer things. I did a few jalapeño, Big Jim, and a few bell peppers that I got the seeds from one I bought. Right now they are tiny.

Companion planting is very important, they grow great with onions, basil, peas and carrots but you shouldn’t grow them around tomatoes and eggplant. They attract the same pests and draw the same nutrients.

Once the summer garden is done I’ll do a similar garden to my spring one, except a lot of garlic, brussel sprouts and more greens.

I have mostly, like 95 percent, peppers. Majority are in pots. I'll get some in the ground this weekend and I'll be sure to get some companion plants.

Do you plan on fermenting some pepper sauce? I’ve been wanting to do that but really don’t like spicy food too much lol.

I guess companion planting doesn’t matter as much of they’re in pots. I use the Planter app on iOS for planning my garden, it’s very helpful and shows which plants don’t grow well together.

Yes, I've been looking into some sauce recipes, there's a few posted in this sub as well. I'll look that app up.
