More Transplants

The rest of the peppers were transplanted today.  They were getting a little big and with a month to go before they go outside I thought it was necessary.  I put them all in larger cell packs the same as the previous peppers.  Because of the lack of space under the lights I planted 15 of my peppers into individual 3” pots.  I sent 6 home with my aunt and the rest are going to a teacher at my mother’s school.

The plants don’t fit entirely under the lights, so I will have to rotate the flats every day, so that they all receive the same amount of light and I don’t end up with any twisty ones.

A few of my peppers in the last couple days have appeared with curled leaves and small bumps on the underside of the leaves.  However it is only on the Hungarian, chocolate and 1 medusa pepper.  I think it could be edema after reading the following info.  The leaves in the pictures look exactly like mine.  I am going to not water those affected and heat the room up a little more to help eliminate any cold soil.
