Anyone have any success with hot peppers 🌶️? I really want to grow some and even if I get them to sprout I can’t get them past that stage. Tend to die on me.

I have tried Thai chilis and Black Bulgarian with similar results. I’m in zone 8B so should be plenty hot enough for them.

Try Ghost peppers, I think you’ll have better luck 🌶️

Not sure what zone 8B is but in Mediterranean Europe growing them is trivial. I've grown all sorts of chilli peppers in a simple pot with regular soil in my balcony or veranda my whole life.

He has a podcast called The Survival Podcast that you can search for his garden episodes and he gives his whole fertility regimen to make things grow great. It may not be pepper specific, but definitely worth looking into!
