Jerry and others - too late on the sweet pepper F whatevers. I looked at my seed supply and age - quite old (1998 and 1999), and not many of them - so I sowed them and if they come up (still waiting, I fear it is too late), I will squeeze them in. What I may do is save seed from Islander this year and start again. It is a really interesting growout - lots of different colors.

Don, just saw your post. I do peppers and eggplant the same as tomatoes, but do put them in pots so I can get them to good sun. If in a raised bed they should do fine, and 1.5-2 feet should suffice. I think that our Home Depot and Lowe's carries Bonnie Plant Farm seedlings, but I have to confess to turning my nose up at them (understandable with the overly enthusiastic collection of seeds I am responsible for!)
