Juha's start

This was the first start for my chillies. The picture is taken more than one year ago and those small things are plants of Lemon Drop and Bolivian Rainbow. They didn't make it. I propably made all the possible mistakes there are: not enough light, more than enough water and so on... After getting nothing done I let go of growing chillies until October 2007. A good friend of mine, a co-founder of this block, Harri, was interested in growing chillies. I had some Lemon Drops in my freezer and gave him some seeds from them. He dried to get them growing with poor results (seeds were propably damaged when they were frozen). He didn't give up and ordered some more seeds from Fatalii.net and other places. His madness towards these plants had an influence on me so I decided to order some seeds also - This time I wanted to do it the right way.

After couple of visits in Viherpeukku and some reasearch from the web and a little bit of building now I'm waiting for my first small harvest. The current state of my chillies is shown in a picture below.
