Many thanks to the Ministry of Agriculture for bringing the interns by the other day. We had a lot of fun talking about composting, peppers, and dogs :) (you had to be there).

You're welcome back any time.

Grandma came to visit recently and joined us for a little compost batch turning.

Good form. Not bad for almost 80.

I think she has a bright future with the company.

Watering the Scotchies this morning, and one of the newest residents made an appearance (upper left).

This little guy popped out from the mulch to see what's going on.

The peppers aren't the only ones settling into their new home.

Good soil doesn't just grow plants. It creates habitat.

A new Pepper Project post is up.

One week in, and a few lessons have been learned.

Turns out the weak link isn't the system... it's the original pot root balls drying faster than the surrounding soil.

The system seems to be working exactly as intended. The moisture underneath the cardboard and compost overs is still holding strong, a month later.

Now we watch to see if the roots can bridge the gap.

A new Pepper Project post is up.

Four days in, and our Scotch Bonnet field test is already teaching us a lot about moisture retention, transplant stress, and how much abuse peppers actually don’t like.

Today was the plants’ first watering since transplanting, and the response was almost immediate.

So far, the cardboard + compost overs system seems to be doing exactly what we hoped it would do.

Three days in, and the Pepper Project is still alive.

Actually, kinda better than alive.

The Scotch Bonnets are settling in, the soil is holding moisture beautifully, and the midday “we’re all dying” pepper drama keeps resolving itself by evening.

So far:
• No tilling
• No chemical fertilizers
• No transplant collapse
• No emergency watering

Just compost, biology, and observation.

New blog post is up now.

The Pepper Project has officially begun.

32 Scotch Bonnet pepper plants.
No tilling. No chemical fertilizers. No shortcuts.

Just soil, compost, biology, and a slightly unreasonable amount of curiosity.

We’ve launched the first posts in the series over on the website, covering everything from seed germination to soil prep to fertilizer brewing to planting day.

Success or failure, we’re documenting the whole thing.
