First I would like to thank Jim for the bread and the part he played in putting the list back on track. As a long term member of the list, I know this question has been answered before but searching the archives seems like a hugh task and there'll be some newer members that could benefit by the information. I've decided to start my peppers from seed this year because the growing season in upstate New York is so short that I want to start my Habanero peppers early so that I have a chance of getting some ripe ones this year. Usually they start setting fruit in Sept. and barely get a chance to grow before the first frost. So I've put in my order to Tough Love and will be starting the seeds soon. The question I have is about fertilizing seedlings: how much?, how often?, how strong?, what type? Any other hints would also be appreciated. Starting seeds in advance also helps you think that summer can't be that far off. Thanks in advance. Joe Coppola
