It was so successful that I may do more this year. I don't have a big garden space set up any more, so I might try some pots. Maybe a nice hot pepper in a big pot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-garden#post-2076580 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 11:42:46 +0000 Mamaof2 2076580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last year DS and I experimented with seeds and some deck containers - we had lots of lettuce, a few cucumbers, tons of carrots and no peppers - the carrots and lettuce took over and I think that's why the peppers didn't grow. I am going to space everything out this year and use 2 containers.</p> <p>DS was asking me when it was time to plant! Cant remember what we did last year but I am thinking 8 weeks for the seedlings before transplanting outside (Mothers day is usually suggested as the risk of frost is low).</p> <p>What are your plans? </p>
