Growing Chili Peppers

I've tried growing pepper plants before but I've always failed.  My friend Ryan even gave me several very healthy potted plants, and somehow I just couldn't keep them alive. 

And yet, here I am trying again.  Because I saw a YouTube video.  I wanted to try the guy's method for sprouting seeds, and I wanted to do it with Hawaiian chili pepper.

The guy said to snip off the pointy tips.

You put the snipped seeds into a paper towel, dunk it into hot water, cold water, hot water, cold water several times.  Then, supposedly in 10 hours the seeds would sprout.

 It actually took about a week.  But that was okay.  I was just stoked that they sprouted.

Wish me luck!  🤗
