The peppers are planted!

Our peppers are officially planted!

Some of the plants were a bit leggy so to start out with, Papa had to remove the leaves

from the bottom 2/3 of the plants.  He also removed all of the small peppers that had

formed on the plants prior to planting them in the garden.   Once that was done the plants were ready to go and he was able to plant these peppers deeper into the holes.

He dug the holes with a post hole digger and then used 2/3 of the dirt mixed
with Black Kow composted cow manure, lime, and Epsom salt.

Once that was done he then refilled the holes partially and put in 3 peppers per hole, filled the remaining space of the hole.

And added a stake to each section of plants.

There were 128 pepper plants planted total.  And our pepper varieties include: California Wonder, Green, Yellow and Red Bell Peppers, Anaheim Peppers, Cayenne Peppers, Jalapeno Peppers
