Ok, it is October and here is my progress lol ..
I have been so busy with work that all I have been doing is watering everyday through the insane Texas heat wave and drought we had! No rain water practically throughout this summer! I put tags for the three pepper plants but I think someone took the tag which was jalapeños. Irregardless I am still curious from experts what to do now that a freeze 🥶 could happen around December. I purchased a 8x24 freeze protection sheet which I hope will keep things going. I am still confused how anyone gets great BIG peppers to actually grow lol!
Thanks!
I used tap water throughout the summer and around a month or so ago I used miracle grow but it completely ruined my basil plant…so far the miracle grow has kicked the peppers into high gear but cmon it's almost Halloween!
Edit:
Also I am doing to reread all the replies so I can get it right for next spring! Obviously watering and proper sun isn't doing the trick, which this is proof lol
