Hey,
I planted a bell pepper sapling in an 8 inch container about 5 weeks ago. The plant is about 6 inches tall. 3 weeks ago, I noticed that the plant has 2-3 buds and 1 bud was the size of a chick pea. Since then these buds haven't changed size nor shape nor color. The plant still looks green and healthy. The leaves do feel strong to the touch too. I live in San Jose, CA. Am i doing something wrong. I water them regularly. The soil is just right ( for moisture control). I hear that peppers need humudity. How do i do that in a dry climate area and with limited space?
I have tomato, strawberry, couple of varieties of chilli, some herbs, all doing well in similar containers. All the plants are getting sunlight all day. I added miraclegro 'feed' in all the containers when i was planting the saplings.
The soil in the container too is 'miraclegro-potting mix'. I could not find the 'miraclegro-fruits and vegetables' soil.
PLEASE HELP!!!
