Extractions: WANTED: Looking for a stable, non-chemical soil-mate interested in a long-term relationship with earthy partner. Non-burning, non-salty. Soluble flash-in-the-pan types need not apply. In the natural state, our soil contains all the nutrients required to grow the plants native to our area. When an old tree falls, its body is consumed by insects, fungus and bacteria, and the nutrients are returned to the soil to nourish the next generation. Over hundreds and thousands of years, the local ecology evolves to a balance of requirements and additions: the flow of nutrients is circular and replenishes itself. The problem starts when we clear the land and plant crops or gardens. The trees are burned or turned into houses, paper or toothpicks, the weeds are carted off to the dump. Then we plant crops, and carry away the harvest. Nothing gets returned to the soil. Add the effects of runoff from soil exposed to the rain and artificial irrigation, and pretty soon the soil has been depleted of its balanced reserve of nutrients. In order for our gardens to thrive, we must feed the soil with what we have taken out.

I've already got a stack of seed catalogs, as I'm sure many of you have as well, and have been idly leafing through them, wistfully dreaming of big harvests and fresh meals in the making. There are, no-doubt, many of you who aren't finding just what you're looking for; maybe it's that variety your neighbor had last year, or you're just looking for something new.
Growing Chile Peppers chile peppers, they can afford some 'harmless' organic protection Rob Johnston ofJohnny's Selected Seeds; Growing vegetables west of the Cascades, by Steve http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~gcaselton/chile/growing.html
Extractions: Chile peppers are fairly tolerant of their growing conditions and will survive in temperatures ranging from 7 to 29 degrees centigrade and in areas with an annual precipitation varying from 0.3 to 4.6 metres. The soil pH can vary from an acidic pH 4.3 to an alkali pH 8.7 Chile peppers are sensitive to the cold and generally prefer to grow in a well-drained, sandy or silt-loam soil. Pepper plants can also be grown in containers. This web page gives general hints and tips on growing chile peppers from seeds. If you want specific information on growing red Habanero peppers, try the Spring Green website. 10 steps to 'pepper-heaven' Use only disease and insect free plants that have not been crowded Test soil for fertiliser requirements and nematodes Use good weed management practices Plant carefully to get good stands Cool the fruit soon after harvest Adjust soil pH to around 6.5 Apply fertiliser carefully Side-dress 2 to 3 times Use well-drained soils Control insects Seeds......the start of the journey Seeds are living things. They are always conducting metabolic processes, although it is at a very low level, until they germinate. The lifetime of any given seed will vary with both its innate vitality (some plant seeds naturally live longer than others) and its environment. Generally speaking, seeds that have been kept cool and dry will live longer (and therefore have higher viability) than seeds that have been kept warm and wet. When you by seeds from a supplier, check the date on the packet; it will indicate the year/season they were packed for, or the year/season they should be planted by.
