Every year I've tried to start chilli and pepper plants off nice and early in January.
Each year the heated propagator does the trick and the seeds germinate
fairly quickly - but a couple of weeks in I end up with a load of straggly
seedlings due to lack of natural daylight.
I've bitten the bullet this year and shelled out £100 for a grow light kit -
after a load of research comparing CFL / Sodium kits I've gone for
a budget fluorescent setup that should keep the chilli seedlings going until
the weather warms up sufficiently to transplant them to the greenhouse.
In the end I bought the system below from Greens Horticulture (http://www.greenshorticulture.co.uk)
- although still waiting for them to deliver it....... hurry up!!!!!
