So, the bag is labeled as "peperone" and they are growing well, but when do I water them, I've been doing daily. Also, how do I get rid of flies, baby flies are hatching in my pot and I want them gone, I need an organic and affordable solution for that too.

I prolly should get some seed trays, are the shrooms harmful? I don't mind them

[–] LallyLuckFarm@beehaw.org 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Harmful? Probably not but I wouldn't eat them. What they are is an indicator of the mix being wetter than peppers generally appreciate, in my experience. I've spread winecap mushrooms throughout our space and they'll come up around some of the veg, but not around the peppers, which (ime) are happiest with damp-ish but not wet soil

Oh OK, so.the mushrooms are a bad sign
