A few different mixes of sweet peppers, but I also started jalapeño , shishito, habanero and Hungarian wax as well.

One of the sweet peppers are purple as well.

A heads up about those cheap China trays, they turn very fragile after they're wet for a bit. Kinda gross.

What other option is there? My other plastic ones lasted a few years until I left them in the sun in my cold frame and melted them -.-

They’re plastic and exposed to heat/cold and UV I’m not expecting them to last, but a couple years is fine for the price.

I save strawberry/blueberry containers but also have used these if this helps:

I use starter cubes, so sitting in water isn’t good for them, need something to wick as well.
