I decided to plant my peppers in 5-gal nursery pots this year instead of directly in the ground. The soil in the ground is mostly clay I think is really restricting root growth. So, I got a bunch of 5-gal nursery pots and a couple of bales of ProMix and went to town. I ended up planting a couple in the ground and they haven't grown nearly as much as their potted counterparts. Everything has been going pretty well so far and the peppers are starting to roll in.

My grow list this year:
Serrano
Jalapeno
Habanero (standard orange)
Habanero (Red Savina)
Bhut Jolokia
Lemon Drop
Tri-Color
Inferno
Fajita Bell
Thai Hot
