In the confusion of travel, unpacking, and installing my AC, I forgot to photograph my peppers on Monday. So you get to see an eight-day difference rather than a seven-day difference. Horrors!
They traveled down to NJ in their tray with the lid for protection (it only just fit over the tallest sprout) and came safely back the same way. My parents and aunt made the requisite impressed/pleased noises over them, and Mom even watered them herself a couple times with a spray bottle.
I think I may transplant the biggest ones into actual pots next week, if only because it will be easier to tie them to proper stakes than it would be to try inserting popsicle sticks or the equivalent into the peat cylinders. :)
