Growing Chilli peppers, also Hot peppers

Hello Some great reading, thanks. I am in Brisbane, Australia and have over 300 chillies, approx. 50+ varieties. I germinate from seeds either purchased or swapped with other chilli heads. I really find germinating in a heated propagander the most successful way for me. Once they shoot, I introduce heat lamps, when the 2nd/3rd set of leaves appear I move them to my greenhouse. Give them a feed every couple of weeks with seasonal and powerfeed and happy, healthy chillies start to grow
