Hi! I'm currently in Iowa, originally from Minnesota. Two Orange Hat micros just sprouted in my aerogarden and I've got big plans for lots more fun stuff in containers on my patio this summer! This year I'll be growing

• Spoon
  Napa Chardonnay
  Sweet as Linda

in 5 gallon containers

• Orange Hat
  Jochalos
  Baby
  Vilma

in small 6-8" containers as these are my micros

and

• Aji Charapita
  Buena Mulata

in 5 gallon containers for a bit of spice in my life.

This is my first year growing from seed, last year I had a Pinata pepper plant I got from a nursery and it was so wonderful having fresh peppers. So this year I decided, the bigger the better! Let's grow way more stuff!

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome from the Southeast! Uh oh, it sounds like the growing bug is starting to grow on you but don't worry. It's a good thing!

Servus from Germany!

Welcome from South Dakota!
I've got a couple of Golden Hour micros growing under lights right now and we did Vilma's last year and the year before. It certainly helps make the winter more fun.

A welcome holler from just to yer NE...WESconsin!

Ahoy from the North Atlantic.
I'm growing in dirt indoors under lights in the winter, mostly greens which are the easiest for me in a cool house. But I have peppers started too. I love growing peppers indoors if only I can get some before aphid season comes around.
Good luck with your grow!

Hallo! I love Germany, I went for a month as part of a class trip back when I was in high school!

I forgot to mention, there's a couple Buena Mulata pepper seeds in my aerogarden too! They just haven't sprouted yet. I'm waiting SO patiently!!

Welcome to the Junction from WISconsin. This is a great group as you can see and I think that you will have lots of fun here.

Oh, that's too bad. Spent some time in Maxwell which is near Ames. More time in Iowa City, though.

It turns out I cannot be contained. I went out to a garden store nearby "just to look." Yeah right. I got some ground cherry seeds.

The growing bug is not a good thing. It's an illness, a plague, a deep rooted unbreakable habit. Soon it will consume your life with catalogues, spreadsheets, grow logs, long forecast weather reports, etc...

I'd run for the hills, if Iowa has any.

Oh yeah,

Welcome to the forum.
