Great job! Only thing I would recommend is mixing in perlite with your soil for better drainage. Use some liquid fertilizer on it and you will be enjoying peepers in no time!

Looks good. I like your pot. They're all the same bell peppers, by the way, they start off green and change colors till they're red.

That is a true statement for many peppers, including jalapeno and cayenne.... they turn red when fully ripe. Here are pictures of some peppers I waited to pick until they were no longer green, last year:

I left those yellow bell peppers on the plant for a long time until they appeared fully ripe. One of those yellow bell peppers contained the seed that I saved for this year's plants.

This source says the yellow bell pepper does not turn red.

Interesting, thanks for sharing that with me. I didn't realize some peppers stay yellow.

Great pics!
