I potted peppers into solo cup earlier this week and set them out in the shade to get adjusted to the outside weather (I forget what this is called)
Anyway, the leaves are a very dark green. I took a picture but the color doesn't show true on the picture. I'm wondering why they are so dark now? Details: Started seeds in cells using pro mix. Planted plants in solo cups using MG Potting Mix (Not the organic kind) - the one with flavor berries in the mix that feeds for up to 6 months. It's hot here 90+F. Pictured are Pasilla Bajio. Guajillo, and Chocolate Cherry Bomb ![]() Last edited by AlittleSalt; July 10, 2015 at 05:42 PM. |

They're just darker because of all the nitrogen in the MG potting mix.

Yup - the MG has lots of ferts for the seedlings and probably don't need to be fertilized for at least 4-6 weeks after transplant.
You'll love the chocolate cherry bomb - good flavor and very little heat. Keep them in the shade with a few hours in the sun. Hardening off. |
