CLOSED -- ISLETA LONG HOT PEPPERS

Purchased seeds on ebay 7/22/18.





To germ indoors and plant seedlings in front area planters.




OTHER'S OBSERVATIONS:

"Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Isleta long is generally regarded as a half hardy plant, so remember to protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures. The USDA Hardiness Zones typically associated with Isleta long are Zone 4 and Zone 12. Isleta long needs a loamy and sandy soil with a ph of 7.0 to 8.5 (neutral soil to weakly alkaline soil)."

"Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.2 inches (0.5 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 18°C / 64°FBy our calculations, you should look at sowing Isleta long about 38 days before your last frost date."

None have broken through yet.

UPDATE:

Damned things won't germ.

UPDATE:

9/29/18

Would not germinate in typical seed starter tray setup.  Put the remaining seeds in damp paper towel on 9/22/18.  Thusfar, they have not germed either.

UPDATE:

They were a total fail.
