Bhuts and others growing slow!

14 years ago

I guess I partially blame it on the new MG potting mix formula, and partially on the slow growing nature of hot peppers.

First year growing Bhut Jolokias, as well as some Black Pearls that I picked at a city park last summer (nice hot cherry peppers with dark purple leaves). 2nd year growing orange habs.

Tomatoes are over 5in tall by now and the peppers are barely putting out their first 2 true leaves. Eggplant is even slower...I'm going to add a little fertilizer to them soon. Any advice? Is it normal to have growth this slow? Last year I got a really late start on a couple habs, but still they grew fast in the old MG potting mix formula.
