Hot peppers grow great here[
] I just grew seven different kind of hot peppers and the bugs don't bother them but the bird will eat them. Go figure. I wouldn't of belived it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. These peppers were so hot I would think that they would kill them. There is enough to share with the birds too.

Well I guess if the birds are "chilli heads too" I don't have a problem sharing with them, bugs are another matter, when it comes to most of them dead is better. I'm not a total fanatic about being organic, if I have too, then spray I will. Many thanks again.[8D]

If you're going to be selective about just what you grow you'll be spraying a lot. Try to grow what thrives best in your neighborhood.
A good well ventilated geenhouse will save a lot of pain later on.

Didn't mean to imply that I was going to be that selective, My basic approach is if it will grow, I'll grow it. There are some veggies that we are really fond of and were hoping they would grow there. Now when you you say a well ventillated greenhouse, are we talking a screen house or do I need to plan on a full-up green house?[
