Rain (good to see you again) and fellow ChDs,
I threw the seeds from smoked, dried chipotles and dried anchos that I had 
caponed in my garden last winter rather than waste whatever nutrients might 
be available.  I got pepper grass in the spring in spite of an overload of 
lime (as Byron loves to remind).  There were clumps of pepper weeds 
everywhere.
I figured they were dead, Rain, I was dead wrong.
