Oh, good, there you are!  I tried growing habaneros (sp?) from seed last 
year, from some peppers I bought, but the plants never got taller than two 
inches and never bloomed.  Which peppers did you grow, if you don't mind 
repeating yourself?  And which ones got 5' tall?  
Right now I'm just doing jalapeno, serrano, yellow hot, and something else 
that I've forgotten.  In sweets, I'm doing green, yellow and red.  Green 
didn't do so well last year -- a little thin skinned and not sweet enough -- 
could be it was too close to the yellow hot.  So this year, they're going to 
be widely separated.
