Or maybe not.
Maybe I just can’t learn a lesson.
But golly gee, look at me.
I am trying peppers again.
In a garden bed with manure and compost and lovely soil.
One bell pepper….
…one sweet pepper…..
…and a whole lotta eggshells fortifying the soil around them. I am going to give it a shot again.
Sun, good soil, and calcium from the eggshells.
Cross your fingers.

I have no idea, I have never grown hot peppers, but I hear they are MUCH easier to grow. I would LOVE ones without the heat actually, mmmm, I love the taste of jalapenos, just can’t take the heat. I craved them while pregnant with Mr K, and had to drown them in sour cream to get rid of the heat but get the taste.
I am aiming for lots of water and better soil this year!

I had peppers last year, and I was very disappointed. They were small and bitter, not sweet or juicy at all. Like you though, I am trying again. I let them get a bit dry last summer, so I’m going to keep a watchful eye on the moisture level.
I also had jalapenos, which I could eat right off the plant, seeds and all. Not a lick of heat to them! They tasted better than the green peppers did. Do you know the secret to making hot peppers grow hot?
