I guess I am still procrastinating some, but I did get out my seed inventory and made some choices.
My young ghost peppers have taken a turn for the worse and had some leaves shrivel up and drop off. The soil feels like it is too hard and needs some loosening up. I don't know if I should re-pot them this time of year or not; I would really hate to lose them. Doctoring sick plants is really the toughest part of learning to grow stuff.
My lemon tree sometimes has trouble, but it is usually aphids that they get in the summer when the plant is outdoors.
Any plants that I am growing indoors, I use compost, vermiculite, and peat is roughly equal proportions, or potting mix. Garden soil tends to have too many soil-borne problems in my experience for indoor growing.
