Not a fan of those pods. Better off using some basic soil

What was your method? Depending on the shell of the seed I soak, but usually I use the paper towel method and wait for them to sprout, once they do i put them in cells to continue growth until I transplant for bigger pots. If you sowed directly, you might be waiting for quite awhile, some pepper seeds only have a 70-80 germination rating.

I feel your pain. At some point I just convinced myself that I like to water dirt.

It can take up to 3 weeks. Be patient.

I’m right there with you pretty much. 100 seeds in and 10 days later, only one early riser!

After about the 2 week mark you feel like you don’t know anything about planting seeds and then they start to pop up. Just remember to keep the soil damp not wet. Also I do not like peat pots.
