Sadly, the pepper plants were not immune to dampening off. Just took longer to take hold. Found half the Biker Billy and Grande Jalapenos collapsed this morning. Moved the survivors to 4 inch pots.

Those peppers not in trays with the affected tomato seedlings seem to be progressing as they should.

Had tried to protect the survivors with a popular remedy: misting with a mixture of peroxide and water, then dusting with cinnamon. Maybe that’s why there are survivors. Or not.
