cybrczch said:Rita, I brought in compost in that bed this spring. I have a 3 year slow compost system - year 1 all the grass and leaves and garden stuff goes into bin 1. Year 2 the bin 1 contents are dug out and put in bin 2 in early spring - year 3 the bin 2 contents are dug out and put in bin 3 in early spring, then sifted and placed into the garden when i prepare the beds. That bed got most of the compost this year because of all the clay dug up when the basement work was done.
I went out and looked at the plants today, I've got lots of pepper flowers blooming, now just hoping for some to set on the bells.


Maybe they were just slow this year for whatever reason.
