I used your system and sprinkled some red amaranth seeds. Put the container on a heat mat set at 80 F. They germinated in 3 days. Thanks for showing this simple method.

Thank you for the tips! I normally plant modest quantities of many kinds of pepper plants, but much of what you are doing would work well for my grow pattern too, I'd just separate varieties into small 6-cell trays with little tags to identify each cell. I think the vermiculite would work well for me too, and I also like to have 1/4" above the seeds to reduce the occurrence of helmet head. Right now I start 50 seeds of 12-18 varieties per batch.

Just got my Aji dulce seeds from you!! Don’t have a heat mat or fine vermiculite, so my 1st packet of seeds will be an experiment. I live in AZ and we are getting rain tonight and tomorrow!! Dsnt happen very often so I planted my first pack on top of seed starter pods and layered 1/4” with sand and perlite. It might be totally wrong but it’s what I have today & I really wanted to take advantage of the rain. Tomorrow, I will go to Lowe’s to get the mat & vermiculite for the 2nd round of the pepper experiment. Really appreciate all the extra work u put in for us trying to grow peppers successfully for the first time. I make something called “sofrito” and have yet to see aji dulce peppers in ANY Asian or Latin market anywhere in the US( except Miami), so I’m super excited for these little guys to grow and give me lots of peppers. Thanks again!!

If you're trying to germinate super-hots and they're taking a quite a while (over ten days), should you continue to keep them at the second stage, where you have gently lifted up the corner over the container to let some air in, until they have started to sprout? Can you keep them at that stage for a couple weeks? Thanks!
@RefiningFireChiles3 ай бұрын
You can have corner up after first few days regardless cause you need to get some air in.

Sand works and is far cheaper. Those containers without drainage holes is likely to be too damp. Requires very manual watering and draining. Double cup method works far better for optimum watering and drainage.

Pay attention this is just to sprout not to grow. Once sprouted transplant to soil pots.
