Adventures in urban food production. A journal of my efforts to grow chiltepin and de arbol peppers on my roof and indoors in Brooklyn NY.

Seeds are sprouting.

Germination is happening in the indoor chile garden. The first tray of seeds I planted were a gift from Lev and Catherine that they brought back from Hatch, NM. Of the 72 plugs planted I think I’ve got over 80% germination rate within 10 days. Now I’ve got another tray of de arbol seeds planted that I saved myself, and a third tray of chiltepins that Wilder and I planted yesterday. Where am I going to put all of these plants once they get big?
