I had planned to plant these in a Bounty today, then I remembered I had broken that Bounty's base by dropping it.
So I will use an airstone and rig up one of my Aerogarden grow light panels above the bowl somehow, and hopefully get two pepper plants started today.

The little peppers will need to be separated soon.
I plan to try growing two plants in the Bounty. If it gets too crowded, I will remove one.

I had not noticed any flowers on these plants, but they sneaked one baby pepper on me already way over on the left.

I broke one plant off doing an R&R, but had a spare in another machine.
It seems that the pepper I had almost given up on is going to produce after all. Anyway, it's putting on flowers!

Your banana peppers look just like mine. Are they from the seed packet, or from Aerogarden? Banana peppers seem to be great producers. My "poblano" aka banana pepper has lots more peppers and blooms. It's on its third harvest. The peppers taste good, too, especially in sandwiches (raw or pickled).

lynnee, my seeds are from Everwilde.
I am ready for a pepper that produces lots of good tasting peppers!

I did it again. Forgot to plug in the pump on the peppers and the water looked scummy and nasty.
So I did an unplanned R&R -- AND PLUGGED THE PUMP IN!

I have almost defoliated this plant to let light through to the lower levels. But it keeps putting on new flowers.

Banana peppers seem to grow really, really fast! Yours are behaving like my banana pepper (aka "Poblano"). AG did me a favor by sending the banana pepper in a mislabeled pod, because it would have been ages before I ever tried to grow banana peppers.
H and I both love the pickled banana peppers in sandwiches or as a relish with dinner. The one plant is keeping us supplied.
