I am having no problem with getting the seeds to germinate, usually takes 7 or 8 days. I start them out in those small greenhouse type things and living in FL I dont have to worry about keeping the starter tray warm. Anyways.. I see the above post that says he uncovers the plants immed after sprouting, when using the greenhouse planter should I be taking the dome off immed also? So far they are growing great but I dont want any bad long tern effects from doing this... I now have 14 differant kinds of peppers growing... I cant wait till they grow and I can pick my own peppers. Thanks Todd
