Congrats JG! Peppers know whom to love!  And they like to be outside and bathe in sun - according to my experience. Only take care: all plants are jealous!!!
keep your mouth shut, and your eyes open.

Originally posted by J Geoff: I started a new hobby this summer - I'm trying to grow different varieties of hot peppers.  So, this is what it's like to be over the hill, huh? :p  Only, kidding Geoff. Well, good luck with that.I've never had the chance to eat anything homegrown, but it's supposed to have a lot more flavour (unsuprisingly).
"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."

Originally posted by J Geoff: I planted them on Wednesday and a few broke the surface already in less than 2 days!! Oh man... no wonder a few sprouted up so quickly! I think there were some grass seeds (not the fun kind ) in the seedling mix I used.  Some look like they could be peppers, though - in a few days I should be able to tell better. This batch may be way too late for this year unless I get some grow lights.

Wow - that VFT pic was taken yesterday, and I assumed the fly got away. But he didn't - he was in the dish, still alive and kicking! So I plopped him in there, and the VFT finally got a meal.

Okay, so I'll give away the secret to my photographic mastery... Yesterday, there was a fly buzzing around a window so I lightly tapped him with a fly swatter. He wasn't able to fly any more, but was able to walk just fine. I plopped him onto the plant, but the biggest trap closed before he got in there, so he just walked around the plant amongst the smaller traps for a while, stradling the one in the picture. Apparently I flattened his "eye" so he couldn't see me get so close I guess -- so I snapped a ton of different pics of him. (The one posted is my favorite) Later yesterday, I didn't see the fly any more, so I figured he got away. Just before, today, I went to water the plant and lifted the pot out of the dish, and there the fly was! Still alive and kicking, but grounded. So I plopped him into the large trap, and that's that. Had the plant for about a month, and he finally got his first meal. Oh wait - what I meant to say was...... I got super power reflexes and snapped the pic! And the bug camouflage I put on helped me to not be noticed!

...and apparently that flattened "eye" Is it me, or does it look like it has a pig snout?
