Some people seem to have all sorts of trouble, but they always seem to come up pretty quickly for me.  I planted 12 (ish) of each of the 4 types, so I&#8217;ll have far, far too many plants for the window sills we&#8217;ve got if they all sprout!  I suspect the hard part is going to be keeping track of which is which soon.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in which are doing what (and even if you&#8217;re not), it&#8217;s like this&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Riot:<\/em> These are the most advanced.  They were the first up, have the most up, and are the tallest so far, not surprisingly.<\/li>\n<li><em>Ring of Fire:<\/em> These are the next most advanced.  Not quite so many up, but the ones that are are starting to overtake the <i>Riots<\/i>.<\/li>\n<li><em>Zimbabwe Bird Pepper:<\/em> These were fairly slow to get going, and the ones that have come up are a lot smaller than the first 2 types.<\/li>\n<li><em>Prarie Fire:<\/em> These have been the slowest of the lot to poke their heads up.  In fact they haven&#8217;t really.  Though I can see the start of the shoots appearing at ground level&#8230;  Shouldn&#8217;t be long now!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So.  There you have it!  All the goss!<\/p>\n<p>And yes. This is the most exciting thing that&#8217;s happened in the last week.
