I planned on growing all my stuff from seed this year. But I few
things happened. Some of them didn't look that great, my cat at some
and I stopped at a local nursery and they had some peppers that I
wanted to try (Thai Hot and Caribbean Red Hot). If you bought like 12
packs of plant they were cheaper. So I got those and picked up some
pretty big Jalapeno and Hab plants and some Cayenne. The rest was
tomatoes and a cantaloupe.
I was out the other day and saw some habs that were already at least a
foot and half tall. I calmed myself down and I decided that I could
live with the fact that I already have 3 regular hab plants in the
ground and around 6 more hab type plants.
If you don't have unlimited space in the garden, buying big pepper
plants ain't cheating. Use what ever means necessary to fool mother
nature. I got at least 3 extra weeks covering my peppers last fall.
