Re: A question on planting peppers


I look forward to the answer regarding deep planting of peppers. This
would be of help to me. I can speak from experience about tomatoes. I
transplant twice in containers before transplanting into the soil. By so
doing the plants are large enough to set at least 12 inches deep in the
soil. This way they do very well with deep watering once or at the most
twice a week in our semi arid climate. (mid to upper 90s all of this
week) This applies to all tomatoes.
