So a new project! I started a single Reimer Seeds Sweet Heat in my Harvest. I also started Rosemary as a companion, at least until they need more space. Hopefully, this Rosemary will germinate.

Nice, another Sweet Heat growing.
I am looking at your pictures, you may want to push down the sponges in each pod some. Being that close to the label can encourage green algae. They should be at LEAST 1/4" away from the label.
As for the Rosemary, remember it can take upwards of a month to germinate.

I remember the Rosemary discussion from last time. I let the last Rosemary sit for over 4 months, just so I could say my patience was extraordinary, LOL.

I lopped off his sibling's little head two days ago, and the first true leaves are starting. So far, so good!

Happy pepper plant! It's doing really well, I think. All three seeds germinated, so I can't complain about Reimer seeds. So far all I've used have had 100% germination.

Lots of little new shoots forming, too.

Wow, it's getting really big in width, but staying shortish compared to my other pepper plants. Mike is right, they aren't a really fast, tall-growing plant...so far anyway. Look mom...BUDS!

Yes, the Sweet Heats are short pepper plants

My Burpee Sweet Heat has reached the top of the lights of the Harvest. I actually have peppers growing into the light. I feel kinda bad about it.

Buds! Congrats! Now I’m worried about height in my Harvest, too. Maybe I should top mine. If it’s not too late. It’s still young.

Getting big now, and covered with buds. Too many to count! Zero from the Rosemary...again. My Red Heirloom Tomato and Tequila Sunrise Peppers look pretty much the same as the last images, bigger green tomatoes and lots of peppers in various stages of growth and coloring up. When there's enough of a difference that it looks different from the other images, I'll post some pics.
