I love gardening. I'll have tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, and watermelons this year. I just planted a Stella cherry tree during the fall. I'd like to venture into herbs to see how I like that stuff.
Have my pepper seeds starting now. Will be putting the tomato seeds in the cells this weekend. Have 10 weeks till frost date is clear here in PA. Can't wait to get out in the yard and get the beds ready. Planted my first garlic bulbs last fall. Can see them sprouting through the mulch now that the snow has melted

what type of peppers do you like to grow? A friend of mine wants to try growing some peppers so i'm going to buy him some "Peter" pepper seeds for him as joke

Tried them once and didn't grow well. Probably my fault, but I will have to try them again. I grow mostly hot peppers and a bell pepper or two. Jalapeno, Cherry, Cayenne, Habanero. I grew Ghost peppers last year, but they were really too hot to do anything with them.
If I had some good sunlight, I wouldn't bother with the lights or mats either. This is the first I have heard of sprouting the seeds myself, but it seems to be working pretty well. I start lots of peppers since I like to try different types, and I can usually stick the extras in whatever space I have left or containers. Once I am ready to put them out, I go to a nursery and pick up whatever I don't have or whatever didn't grow well from seed. I think I start from seed just for something to do in these winter months. LOL. Last year I put the tomatoes out a little early and a frost ruined most of those that I started from seeds. I'll keep you updated through the season.

You hit the nail on the head! As soon as the temp gets above 40 for a couple days I get "garden fever" LOL. We did the same thing last year with our peppers and herbs...put them out early and had a couple cold nights with a late frost or two --- the plants were damaged but actually recovered pretty well, just pruned off the dead and gave them some extra fertilizer.
